Asking yourself what are the best class setups and attachments for the MG34 in Modern Warfare? Or maybe you’re looking for the weapon stats? We got you covered.
In this MG34 in-depth review. We take a look at the weapons statistics such as damage range, recoil, and rate of fire.
With these stats, we then provide an analysis of the best attachments and class setups to use when running the MG34.
Weapon background
The MG34 is a Call of Duty classic first appearing in Call of Duty United Offense back in 2004. It has since appeared in many newer titles including Black Ops 3 and WWII.
Stats
- Damage: 34-30
- Rate of Fire: 820RPM
- Recoil: Strong(Vertical, kicks straight up)
Analyzing the stats above we can see that the MG34 can kill in 3 to 4 shots. This will also depend on the distance you are to the enemy. For example, the 3 shot kill range only applies to close range engagements. In medium to long-range, the weapon drops off to 4 shots.
Best Attachments
The best attachments you can use on the MG34 in Modern Warfare are the:
- Commando Foregrip
- Stippled Grip Tape
- G.I. Mini or Solozero Reflex
The first two attachments will counter the slow ADS and Sprint out times of this LMG.
The iron sights on the MG34 are the worst in the game. It has a big lump of steel blocking your left field of view.
Therefore, we highly recommend a sight of some sort. For close to medium range, use a G.I. Mini or Solozero Reflex. If you’re using the weapon for long-range engagements, use a 3x or bigger scope.
