October 9, 2023: Season 6 is now underway and we've tweaked the best MW2 Minibak loadout along with the strongest attachments to equip onto this underrated SMG.

The Modern Warfare 2 cycle is well underway and over the course of Season 6, the best Modern Warfare 2 Minibak loadout is a surefire way of dealing plenty of damage against any opposition.

The Minibak, heavily inspired by the PP19 Bizon from 2019's Modern Warfare, features a rapid rate of fire and a huge magazine as standard. Although it's capable of excelling in close-quarters combat, its mid-range performance is lacking. But, with the right attachments equipped, the SMG can compete at longer distances.

Elsewhere in the Modern Warfare 2 universe, check out our guides showcasing the Modern Warfare 2 maps and the best Modern Warfare 2 perks to use as part of a loadout.

What is the best Modern Warfare 2 Minibak loadout?

  • Barrel: BAK-9 279mm Barrel
  • Laser: Schlager PEQ Box IV
  • Optic: Slimline Pro
  • Stock: FT TAC-ELITE Stock
  • Rear Grip: True-Tac Grip

This build contains a slight increase in damage and range allowing you to deal more damage at longer distances.

Elsewhere, the rest of the build contains improvements to accuracy and handling which makes all the difference when utilising the extra damage to your advantage.

Best Modern Warfare 2 Minibak attachments

The Modern Warfare 2 gunsmith contains an extensive arsenal of attachments to customise the Minibak. After some testing, here's the strongest combination:

  • Barrel: BAK-9 279mm Barrel
  • Laser: Schlager PEQ Box IV
  • Optic: Slimline Pro
  • Stock: FT TAC-ELITE Stock
  • Rear Grip: True-Tac Grip

In comparison to other SMGs, the selection of attachments for the Minibak is surprisingly small. However, the BAK-9 barrel brings a much-needed increase in damage output to the SMG.

Additionally, the combination of FT TAC ELITE stock and True-Tac grip ensures a fast aim-down sight and sprint-to-fire speed which is particularly useful when reacting to an enemy that flies around a corner.

Best Modern Warfare 2 Minibak perks and equipment

Once the best MInibak attachments are ready for battle, we can recommend a strong perk package and selection of equipment that provides further in-game improvements.

Perks

  • Double Time (Base)
  • Bomb Squad (Base)
  • Focus (Bonus)
  • Birds'-Eye (Ultimate)

It's hard to go wrong with this set of perks. Choosing Focus as the bonus perk reduces flinch when aiming down sights, allowing you to keep track of a target even if they're landing their shots.

Equipment

  • Claymore (Lethal)
  • Stun Grenade (Tactical)

Although they're annoying, a Claymore is a great way to earn a few extra kills. Place one around a corner or by a doorway and wait for the eliminations to roll in.
