The MTZ-762 is one of three new battle rifles inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.This weapon is a hard-hitting, full-auto rifle that can down an opponent at extreme ranges. Its high bullet velocity and damage multipliers make it a great pick for Ground War and larger MP maps, yet its recoil can make the MTZ tricky to use.

Fortunately, there are many attachments you’re able to use to turn the MTZ-762 into a reliable battle rifle in every game mode. This guide will showcase two great builds for the MTZ-762, explaining how to make this weapon a great battle rifle or a fast-firing carbine.

Pros And Cons

SZ 1mw PEQ (Laser)

While the MTZ-762’s TTK is quite solid for a battle rifle, the weapon’s small magazine and heavy recoil make it tough to use. This can easily be fixed with a few attachments. TheEXF Close Quarters Assault Stockwill greatly reduce your recoil, stacking with the vertical recoil reduction from theSL Skeletal Vertical Grip.For magazine size, use the30 Round Magattachment.

These three attachments are enough to make the MTZ quite consistent at longer distances, but you’ll still have to deal with sluggish aiming stability and poor iron sights. We can fix these issues with theSZ 1mw PEQ laserandany optic, respectively. With all attachments installed, this weapon can land headshots from 50 meters with little issue, leading to easy three-hit kills.

Field Upgrade

Dead Silence

This loadout uses theInfantry Vestto quickly tactical sprint across the map, making it easier to reach vantage points or nearby pieces of cover. TheMarksman Gloveswill greatly reduce incoming flinch during a gunfight, and theStalker Bootswill make it easier to strafe in and out of cover. Since the reload speed is already quite fast on this weapon, we recommend usingEOD or Tac Maskin your gear slot.

For your equipment,StimsandThrowing Knivesare always good picks. A stim will quickly heal you after a gunfight, and you can throw your knife for an instant one-hit kill.Since you don’t use any stealth perks, run Dead Silence as your Field Upgrade.This will give you a means of running quietly when needed.

The Jak Heretic Carbine Kit converts the MTZ-762 into an assault rifle, buffing its handling and fire rate at the cost of damage. While this kit makes ita surprisingly powerful assault rifle, the Jak Carbine Kit greatly increases the weapon’s visual recoil. We’ve opted to use recoil attachments that don’t impose ADS or sprint-to-fire penalties to fix this.

Without compromising the weapon’s handling stats, you can reduce its recoil by using theMTZ Factory Rear Grip, SL SKeletal Vertical Grip, and ELR Blackfire Compensator L.Throw on your favorite optic, and you have a great assault rifle that acts as a hybrid between the MCW and MTZ-762. AnADS speed of 244msandsprint to fire delay of 159msmeans you can use this weapon quite aggressively, more so than any other battle rifle.

We recommend an aggressive loadout to take advantage of this build’s great handling stats. TheEngineer Vestis our choice, providing a second gear slot and a much shorter Field Upgrade cooldown. For perks, we recommend theAssault Glovesto remove all ADS and accuracy penalties from jumpshotting,Tactical Padsto fully ADS while sliding,Mag Holsterto hasten your reload animation, andTac Maskto resist enemy equipment.

You’ll be able to jump and slide into gunfights whenever you please, but it might be difficult to get up close since you aren’t running Covert Sneakers. To help remedy this, use theDead SilenceField Upgrade to temporarily gain the effects of Covert Sneakers and Ghost. Kills extend the timer, and its charge time is more than doubled with the Engineer Vest, giving it fairly high uptime in most playlists.
