Best Lachmann Sub Loadout in MW2 & Warzone: Attachments, Perks & Playstyle

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 may have changed the names of many of the franchise’s fan-favorite weapons, but their performance continues to remain the same. For instance, the Lachmann Sub (formerly known as the MP5) is an SMG that flourishes in short-range situations, perfectly complimenting those with run-and-gun play-styles.

That said, it will need some attachments and tuning work to beef up its subpar accuracy and aim-down-sights time. Coincidentally, our attachments also infuse you with a level of speed usually reserved for jungle cats and superheroes. You can make adjustments as needed, but this is our take on the best possible versions in both games.

• Perk Package: Custom
• Base Perks: Double Time and Tracker
• Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
• Ultimate Perk: Quick Fix

To get the most out of the Lachmann Sub, its best loadout will need to focus on raising both its recoil control and aim-down-sights time. As shown above, you’ll first want the VLK LZR 7MW laser and Lachmann Pulsar Barrel, both of which lend additional speed to your zoom-in time. As a result, you should be able to be the first to draw and fire an accurate shot in close-range scenarios. However, it can also function well at long range once given the Lockshot KT85, as it shoots straight as an arrow, even at a distance.

Your next step will be to supply it with the 40 Round Drum, which ultimately ensures reloading is rarely ever needed. We prefer to leave off the Optic, though you could choose to slap one on, but the utility from the Meer Recoil-56 Factory Stock pairs nicely with your perk package.

The Lachmann Sub also pairs nicely with a Perk Package that benefits aggressive play-styles. For one, Double Time will extend your sprints, allowing you to chase opponents for longer periods of time. It is even better when considering the Tracker perk enables you to see all recent enemy footsteps nearby. Meanwhile, Fast Hands speeds up the sluggish reloading time of the 50 Round Drum, as Quick Fix grants you additional health after each elimination.

• Perk Package: Custom
  • Base Perks: Double Time and Overkill
  • Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate Perk: Ghost

Movement may not be as vital in Warzone 2.0 as it was in first title, but being slow on your feet is still a huge disadvantage. This Lachmann Sub loadout gives you plenty of speed thanks to the Lachmann Pulsar, VLK 7MW Lazer and Meer Recoil-56 Factory Stock, making it easier to hunt enemies down or speed away to safety when you need to plate up. The 9MM Hollowpoint rounds counter one of the gun’s biggest weaknesses by providing vital damage range, and the 40-Round Mag adds peace of mind when fighting more than one opponent.

Our Custom Perk Package is built around Overkill, as is standard for most Warzone 2 loadouts. Double Time complements all of that movement speed from your attachments. Fast Hands’ weapon-swapping speed is crucial here, as you’ll be swapping between guns a lot, and Ghost is a safety blanket in the late-game, keeping you off the radar when things get hectic.
