LMGs are taking a bit of a backseat in the META in Modern Warfare 3. Assault Rifles, SMGs, and extremely mobile snipers are the dominant picks in almost every lobby. The Bruen Mk9 isn’t here to reform the META but to prove that it can still stand against the top dogs. So here’s the best Bruen Mk9 loadout in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone.
Best Bruen Mk9 Loadout in Warzone
Best Bruen Mk9 Attachments
LMGs always find a way to be META-relevant, especially with the accuracy and damage range that the Bruen Mk9 brings to the table. Its one singular downside is its heavy and sluggish handling but that comes with the territory.
The best attachments are as follows:
- Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor
- Barrel: FT Ferocity LR Barrel
- Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
- Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5X
- Rear Grip: STIP-40 Grip
A range increase is a must in Warzone so we use both the VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor and the FT Ferocity LR Barrel for a drastic boost in damage. For some recoil control we use the Bruen Heavy Support Grip and STIP-40 Grip to ensure that the Bruen Mk9 is an absolute laser beam.
Finally, our optic of choice is the Corio Eagleseye 2.5X for a clean sight that offers a decent zoom for both CQC and long range.
Best Bruen Mk9 Perks
Our perks are generally recommended for Warzone and are mostly irrelevant to the weapon you’re using. Here we detail our all-around perk package for any player.
The best perks are as follows:
- Perk 1: Sleight of Hand
- Perk 2: Double Time
- Perk 3: Tempered
- Perk 4: High Alert
Sleight of Hand is a great pick for an LMG player as it offers a faster way to reload your giant magazine. Double Time is a must-have in Warzone’s new map.
Tempered offers a 33% faster plating speed and frees up some bagspace for plenty of nicknacks and gadgets. Our last perk is High Alert and it promises to keep you alive while offering plenty of information on enemy positions.

The Bruen Mk9 is like most LMGs; a sluggish monster that needs time to put its high damage onto the map.
That higher damage keeps the Bruen Mk9 competitive in a world where mobility and speed are the highest priority stat. Unlike the Holger 26, it doesn’t have any amount of handling but racks up more damage than the Pulemyot 762, which cements it as an incredible weapon to hold down chokes or high-traffic areas. Thanks to the Gunsmith, we can slip on some choice attachments to protect the Bruen Mk9’s weaknesses while propping up its strengths.
The best attachments are as follows:
- Muzzle: XTEN Ported 290
- Barrel: 23″ EXF Foresight Barrel
- Underbarrel: XTEN Phantom-5 Handstop
- Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
- Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5X
Starting our list we use the 23″ EXF Foresight Barrel for a big increase in handling something the Bruen Mk9 desperately needs. To help we have the XTEN Phantom-5 Handstop and the VLK LZR 7MW laser for even better ADS speeds and handling.
Finally, we use the XTEN Ported 290 muzzle for its recoil control and the Corio Eagleseye for the perfect optic to tie off the loadout.
Best Bruen Mk9 Perks
Perks are the foundation of a good loadout and while they may look slightly different in Modern Warfare 3, they still play this crucial role. The Bruen Mk9 is a sluggish LMG with a high damage range, so we want to equip perks to benefit our loadout.
The best perks are as follows:
- Vest: Infantry Vest
- Gloves: Quick Grip Gloves
- Boots: Stalker Boots
- Gear: EOD Padding
The Infantry Vest will keep us mobile when we need to rotate, offering us the ability to Tac Sprint for longer and a quicker recharge time. Our Quick-Grip gloves negate a big weakness of the LMG class, allowing us to switch to our secondary when the big gun isn’t needed. Stalker Boots offer faster strafe speeds for better movement. Finally, the EOD Padding protects us from stray frag grenades or highly damaging killstreaks.
And there you have it, the best Bruen Mk9 class for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. Expect the setup to change as Season 1 drops and balance changes affect the META. Also, stick with us at Twinfinite for all the latest news on Call of Duty and Warzone.
