In Call of Duty: Warzone, the SMG weapon class is considered a powerful primary and a trusty secondary weapon. Players often pair SMG loadouts with sniper rifles, tactical rifles, or long-range assault rifles. No matter the pairing, the Call of Duty: Warzone SMG options provide a powerful close-combat option for any fan looking to beam down opponents.

While the MAC-10 has recently dominated the Call of Duty: Warzone meta, there are several other powerful SMGs within the title. From the MP5 to the Milano 821, there are other options that can pack a powerful punch when built right. With so many Call of Duty: Warzone weapons to choose from, most classes boil down to how the player chose to build their personalized weapons.

The Milano 821 is a unique weapon to the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War title. The weapon also referred to as a Type 821, is a full-auto submachine gun with high damage and fair recoil. It excels at handling speeds and hip fire spread while boasting a slower fire rate than similar SMG options. One great advantage is that players can remain mobile with this weapon and easily gun down targets without needing to ADS during the entire kill.

Milano 821 Loadout

  • Muzzle - Agency Suppressor
  • Barrel - 10.6" Task Force Barrel
  • Underbarrel- Field Agent Grip
  • Stock - Raider Stock
  • Ammunition - STANAG 55 Found Drum Magazine

One of the most important Call of Duty: Warzone attachments is the Agency Suppressor, which quite down gunfire, hides it from the minimap, and increases weapon damage. Pairing this with the 10.6" Task Force Barrel players can further increase the gun's damage range and bullet velocity. Meanwhile, the Field Agest Grip offers vertical and horizontal recoil control, ensuring that players can maintain accuracy while beaming down opponents.

With the Raider Stock, this Call of Duty: Warzone loadout gets a boost to mobility and sprint-to-fire speeds. Finally, the STANAG 55 Round Drum Magazine allows for increased ammo capacity for increased viability in extended conflicts. Players can often find reloading to be a death sentence, so increased ammo capacity is often a must-have in Warzone situations.

The Call of Duty: Warzone SMG loadout is best paired with a long-range weapon. Players can pair it with an SMG, but many fans prefer to attempt using it alongside the LW3 Tundra sniper rifle. Either way, this weapon is designed for close-combat situations and will not perform well at extended ranges.

Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
