The Mac 10 is a fully automatic submachine gun in Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War. It was introduced with the release of Season 1 of the Battle Pass.
It is a fast firing and powerful SMG in close range. The weapon has quite a high recoil. However, this can be corrected with attachments and some practice. Even though it has high recoil, it is not difficult to control.
Weapon background
The Mac 10 originally appeared in COD 4 Modern Warfare and has since featured in other Call of Duty titles such as Black Ops 1 on DS and MW3 on DS. The Mac 11 variant featured in Black Ops 1.
Stats
- Damage: 27 HP
- Rate of Fire: 1111 RPM
- Recoil: Moderate to High
From the stats above we can see that the Mac 10 is a 4 shot kill submachine gun. Players can kill in less than this provided they land a headshot. The Mac 10 has moderate to high recoil. The recoil also kicks vertically and to the right.
Mac 10 Cold War Best Attachments
The best attachments for the Mac 10 in Cold War are the:
- 6.1” Reinforced Heavy Barrel
- Salvo 53 RND Fast Mag
- Field Agent Grip
- SOCOM Eliminator
- Wired Stock
The 6.1” Reinforced Heavy Barrel adds 18% effective damage range and adds a whopping 80% bullet velocity. The Salvo 53 RND mags provide a host of other improvements. Most importantly it gives you extra ammo. Weapons with high RPM tend to waste ammo a lot quicker. We also recommend a grip attachment to control recoil.
