Best attachments for the MX Guardian in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2

For the attachments, you’re going to want to maximize damage output, range, and speed. The following attachments will help improve your usage of the MX Guardian for more consistent and fast kills in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.

  • Trigger Action: Semi-Auto
  • Rear Grip: Stream-SK (Tuning: increase ADS and Sprint to Fire speed)
  • Barrel: HYP-LM
  • Muzzle: XTEN Modified Choke
  • Magazine: MX Pro Mag

This combination of attachments will give you the edge when it comes to getting the drop on your enemies. Using the semi-auto trigger will give you more control over where all of your bullets fire, and the more damage put into your target, the better. The HYP-LM’s recoil control, hip fire accuracy, increased range and bullet velocity also contribute significantly to the MX Guardian’s high damage potential.

Additionally, with increased aim-down-sights (ADS) speed and sprint-to-fire speed from the Stream-SK Rear Grip and the MX Pro Mag, the chance of you getting the first shot on your enemies is substantially increased. Lastly, the XTEN Modified choke also increases damage range and gives a tighter pellet spread, making the potential for one-shot kills even greater.
