Best MCW loadout in MW3 Zombies

A dominant AR against the undead

The MCW is one of the best weapons in Call of Duty MW3 multiplayer and that has translated over into Zombies as well. However, to get the most out of the MCW in Zombies, you need to slightly change up its loadout of attachments.

Best MCW loadout in MW3 Zombies

  • Barrel: 16.5″ MCW Cyclone Long Barrel
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Stock: A90 Venom Stock
  • Underbarrel: XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop
  • Magazine: 60 Round Drum

This loadout is slightly similar to the best loadout for the MCW in multiplayer and Warzone, but there are some subtle changes. I have still equipped the 16.5″ MCW Cyclone Long Barrel for its superior damage range and bullet velocity as well as the 60 Round Drum, giving you access to 120 bullets in each magazine if you Pack-A-Punch the MCW.

As for the new attachments, the FSS OLE-V Laser increases mobility across the board, allowing you to lock on to zombies quicker while not harming recoil control. The A90 Venom Stock boosts your movement speed so you can get around the map quicker, as does the XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop. The handstop also improves other mobility stats as well.

Best Class Setup for the MCW in MW3 Zombies

To wrap things up, I have some recommendations for what else you should equip on your loadout in addition to the MCW and its best attachments.

Weapon Slot 2

  • A close-range weapon (WSP Swarm, TYR, Renetti, Rival-9, etc.)

Equipment

  • Lethal: Molotov
  • Tactical: Experimental Gas/Cymbal Monkey/LT53 Kazimir

Field Upgrade

  • Aether Shroud

And that does it for the best MCW loadout in MW3 Zombies. Just like in multiplayer, the MCW dominates in all facets when fighting hordes of the undead.
