Looking to shred enemies with a fast-firing SMG? The MP5’s got your back. This iconic weapon has been a favorite in Delta Force for good reason—26 damage per shot, an insane 820 RPM fire rate, and a TTK that’s practically unbeatable up close.
But hey, even legends have their quirks. The MP5’s recoil can be a pain, and it doesn’t exactly shine at range. After plenty of trial, error, and some facepalm-worthy moments, I’ve nailed down the ultimate loadout to make this beast unstoppable. Ready to level up? Let’s turn your MP5 into the MVP of your arsenal!
Best MP5 Loadout
The MP5 is a fantastic SMG that hits for 26 damage within its effective range and boasts an insane fire rate of 820 RPM. That’s a TTK of around 220 milliseconds, which is just chef’s kiss. However, like most SMGs, it falls off quickly at range, and controlling its recoil can be tricky without the right setup.
After hours of testing (and some hilarious fails), I’ve put together a build that prioritizes control, stability, and handling while making the most of the MP5’s natural strengths. Here’s everything you need to turn this SMG into a close-range monster!
Attachments Breakdown
Barrel: MP5 Tactical Barrel
- Adds an extra meter to your effective range.
- Improves stability while sacrificing a little handling.
- Bonus: Gives you two additional rails for customization.
Muzzle: SMG Echo Suppressor
- Increases your range significantly and keeps you off the radar.
- Alternative: The Bastion Horizontal Compensator for recoil control if stealth isn’t your style.
Underbarrel: RKO Foregrip
- Improves vertical recoil control and reduces firing camera bounce. A must for taming the MP5.
Side Rails: DD Python Handguards (Left & Right)
- Boosts handling to keep the MP5 nimble in close-quarters fights.
Magazine: 50-Round Mag
- This is essential for a high-fire-rate gun like the MP5. Yes, it hits your handling a bit, but the sustained firepower is worth it.
Optic: Panoramic Red Dot
- Clear and reliable for tracking targets.
- Pro Tip: Pair it with the red laser attachment to enhance aim, but skip the green laser—it’s easier for enemies to spot.
Stock: Cardinal Stable Stock
- Greatly improves firing stability and reduces optic bounce, which is a big deal for staying on target.
Fine-Tuning with Calibrations
Now, let’s talk calibration—because this is where the magic happens. With the right tweaks, you can truly optimize the MP5’s performance.
- Barrel: Max out weight for maximum firing stability. Shorten the length to improve ADS speed.
- Foregrip: Increase placement for extra control; reduce thickness for faster ADS movement.
- Stock: Adjust the stock pad placement for better stability and lower the cheek pad placement to enhance ADS movement speed.
- Optic: Shorten the pupil distance to get a clearer view through the sight window.
After calibrating everything, this build transforms the MP5 into an absolute powerhouse:
- Recoil: Insanely easy to control with minimal vertical bounce.
- Handling: Slightly reduced but still snappy enough for SMG fights.
- Stability: Perfectly balanced for those chaotic close-range engagements.
- TTK: With its high fire rate and boosted control, it’s nearly unbeatable up close.
