Best Modern Warfare 3 Vaznev 9K attachments

The Modern Warfare 3 gunsmith contains a huge range of attachments designed to enhance the various characteristics of the Vaznev 9K. This is the strongest combination to use:

  • Muzzle: Bruen Pendulum
  • Barrel: SA Response III
  • Stock: Otrezat Stock
  • Underbarrel: Chewk Angled Grip
  • Rear Grip: Demo-X2 Grip

For maximum recoil control, the Bruen Pendulum muzzle, Chewk Angled Grip, and Demo-X2 Grip ensures the bullets from the Vaznev 9K hit the target every single time. Thanks to the lower recoil, you can make the most of the extra damage and bullet velocity provided by the SA Response III barrel.

Last and by no means least is the Otrezat Stock which maximises sprint speed and movement speed while you're aiming down sights with the SMG.

Best Modern Warfare 3 Vaznev 9K perks and equipment

Once the best Vaznev 9K attachments are ready to rumble, finding perks and equipment that complement the SMG is the next step to building the strongest loadout. Here are our Pre-Season recommendations.

Perks

  • Vest: Gunner
  • Gloves: Commando
  • Gear: EOD Padding
  • Boots: Stalker

This set of perks is all about mobility. The Gunner vest gives you maximum ammunition each time you respawn in addition to a faster reload speed, while Commando gloves allow you to reload the Vaznev 9K while sprinting around the map.

For some resistance to any incoming grenades that are bound to head your way, EOD Padding is the perfect piece of gear to select. The increased protection against non-killstreak explosives, it's a surefire way to stay in the action for longer. Lastly, Stalker boots reduce aim-down sight time and increase strafing speed, allowing you to outmanoeuvre anyone in your crosshairs with ease.

Equipment

  • Lethal: Frag Grenade
  • Tactical: Snapshot Grenade
  • Field Upgrade: Dead Silence

The frag grenade is an excellent piece of equipment to use if you want some extra kills during a match. Cook it then throw it into a busy area of the map for maximum impact.

The snapshot grenade is just as useful. If you think a crafty camper is waiting around a corner, throw the snapshot to reveal their potential location.

As we've opted not to use Covert Sneakers, Dead Silence is our Field Upgrade of choice. Activate it to temporarily silence footstep audio to move around the map relatively undetected.
