The STG44 is a new assault rifle added to Modern Warfare 3 with Season 5. This hard-hitting weapon has quickly gained popularity because of its devastating power, low recoil, and incredible bullet velocity. It is ideal for medium to long-range battles. If you plan on using this rifle, make sure to deploy it on larger maps rather than smaller ones like Shipment, Das Haus, Rust, and others.

This article will provide the best build for the STG44 assault rifle in Modern Warfare 3, saving you the time and effort of testing various attachments.

Best Modern Warfare 3 STG44 loadout in Season 5

Here is the best loadout for the STG assault rifle in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Season 5.

Recommended build:

Muzzle: Quartermaster Suppressor
Barrel: Factory Short Barrel
Optic: JAK Glassless Optic
Stock: A70 Venom Stock
Underbarrel: Paracord Grip

This build focuses on enhancing mobility since the weapon has a low mobility attribute. In the MW3 scenario, speed is crucial for winning matches. You won't need a magazine attachment; 30 bullets in the chamber will suffice. Instead, all attachments will collectively make the weapon more controllable and increase mobility.

The Quartermaster Suppressor is a new muzzle attachment that significantly reduces horizontal recoil by 23% and also reduces both gun kick and vertical recoil by 10%, making the weapon stable and accurate.

The Factory Short Barrel and A70 Venom Stock are crucial attachments that increase mobility by enhancing sprint speed, tactical sprint speed, ADS time, sprint-to-fire speed, movement speed, and max hipfire area. However, these two attachments come with a slight downside of slightly increased recoil and gun kick.

The Paracord Grip underbarrel further stabilizes the weapon and increases mobility by enhancing horizontal recoil control, movement speed, ADS speed, and sprint-to-fire speed.

Finally, the JAK Glassless Optic is a go-to optic attachment that provides a clear sight, making aiming easy and reliable.
