5 Best Modern Warfare 2 Weapon Loadouts
Best HCR 56 loadout in Modern Warfare 2
Our MW2 HCR 56 loadout gives a massive boost to both handling and mobility, while also improving accuracy to make it a killing machine in short-medium range encounters. There are tiny reductions to damage and range, but it still offers a 3-shot kill at most distances to rip enemies apart at incredible speed.
Here’s the best HCR 56 loadout in Modern Warfare 2:
Almost every attachment in this loadout focuses on raising the ADS speed or sprint to fire speed. The24.4" Bruen S-620boosts the former alongside movement speed, while theVLK LZR 7MW,FTAC C11 Riser, and30 Round Magcontribute to both. With all of these attachments equipped, the HCR 56 should immediately feel easier to handle and far better at close-range.
Since the default iron sights are already decent for short-medium range firefights, we recommend opting for theFSS Sharkfin 90as your last attachment. This underbarrel is an easy pick in many loadouts, offering additional aiming stability without any negatives.
Best secondary weapon
Since our HCR 56 loadout adapts the LMG to focus on short-medium range, you’ll need a long-range weapon as your secondary.

For something that packs more of a punch, ourSP-X 80 loadoutperfects an already excellent weapon that tops our list of thebest sniper rifles in Modern Warfare 2.
Best perks and equipment
To equip a sniper as a secondary, you’ll need to use theOverkillperk. In your second slot, useDouble Timeto extend the length of your tactical sprint. To quickly swap between your HCR 56 and secondary, equip theFast Handsbonus perk.Ghostis one of thebest perks in Modern Warfare 2, as its ability to keep you hidden from enemy UAVs and Portable Radars will keep you alive in dangerous circumstances.
TheStim Shotis an essential piece of equipment that you can use to boost back to max health in just two seconds. If you’re struggling to clear an objective or cut through a group of enemies, chuck aThermitegrenade in their direction to spread some fiery AoE chaos.
