  • Muzzle: F8 Stabilizer
  • Barrel: Krausnick 317mm O4B
  • Optic: (Personal Preference)
  • Stock: VDD 34m Padded
  • Underbarrel: M1930 Strife Angled
  • Magazine: 7.62 Gorenko 32 Rnd Mag
  • Ammo Type: FMJ Rounds
  • Rear Grip: Fabric Grip
  • Proficiency: Momentum

The first attachment is the F8 Stabilizer, which you will use to improve accuracy and damage range. Next, you can use the Krausnick 317mm O4B for the barrel attachment to stabilize the MP-40. In particular, this attachment will reduce scope sway and gun bob, ultimately improving accuracy and gun control.

Both of these first attachments will come at the expense of sprint to fire speed and hip-fire accuracy.

For the third attachment, you can pick up the M1930 Strife Angled to improve accuracy, aiming stability and aim walking steadiness. Followingly, the Fabric Grip attachment will improve aiming, specifically by buffing ADS speed, sprint to fire speed and hip fire recoil recovery.

Next, the 7.62 Gorenko 32 Rnd Mags will improve recoil control and accuracy, ADS speed, fire rate and movement speed, albeit at the nominal cost to damage. However, this attachment will also provide concealment when firing, which will reduce unwanted attention from nearby enemies.

You can pair this with the FMJ Rounds to improve the strength of the bullets by allowing you to shoot through objects.
