Best Signal 50 loadout, attachments and perks in MW3 and Warzone

So you’re looking for the best Signal 50 loadout in MW3? You’ve come to the right place. There are many sniper rifles in MW3 and the Signal 50 is one of the few good ones that’s included in Modern Warfare 3 thanks to the Carry Forward system. 

While the default weapon isn’t all that bad, enhancing its performance with our suggested loadout will increase the Signal 50’s overall performance. But before we dive into the loadout, zombies mode has been making the rounds ever since the game was released, so we’ve put together a detailed guide on the MW3 zombies tips and tricks on how to survive in Urzikstan. 

Best Signal 50 loadout and attachments in MW3

• Muzzle: Nilsound 90 Silencer
• Barrel: 29″ TV Kilo-50
• Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
• Rear Grip: SA Finesse Grip
• Optic: SZ Holotherm

To kick things off, we recommend merging the 29″ TV Kilo-50 Barrel with the Nilsound 90 Silencer as Muzzle to increase your chances of getting one-shot kills with the Signal 50. But that’s not all, since these attachments add a bit of weight to the Signal 50, we suggest using the FSS OLE-V Laser and the SA Finesse Grip to provide you with better ADS and Sprint-to-Fire speed. Lastly, consider using the SZ Holotherm Optic to enjoy clear crosshairs to increase your chances of getting headshots. 

Best Signal 50 perks and equipment in MW3 

• Vest: Overkill Vest
• Gloves: Marksman Gloves
• Sneakers: Covert Sneakers
• Gear: Threat Identification System
• Lethal: Frag Grenade 
• Tactical: Scatter Mine

The Overkill Vest is always the go-to Vest option for snipers as it increases your weapon swap speed and gives you the ability to reload while sprinting. Up next is the Marksman Gloves to give you a good grip on the weapon as it’ll decrease your sway. As for Boots, you should go with the Covert Sneakers to reduce the sound of your footsteps, increasing your chances of getting stealth kills. 

For Gear, you should go with the Threat Identification System that’ll allow you to pin enemy locations while ADS. As for your Tactical and Lethal equipment, the Scatter Mine is a fine and destructive choice for Tactical equipment while the Frag Grenade will go a long way to inflict high damage to enemies that cross your path.
