Best WSP-9 MW3 loadout: Class setup, attachments, perks

The WSP-9 has received another big buff in MW3 which has seen it become one of the strongest weapons in multiplayer. Here’s the best WSP-9 loadout to dominate both up close and at medium range.

The Uzi returns to Call of Duty this time as the WSP-9. This unique SMG sacrifices fire rate for accuracy and range resulting in arguably the most versatile submachine gun in Modern Warfare 3. However, the slow fire rate means you can’t afford to miss shots making the WSP-9 less forgiving than other SMGs.

In the right hands, the WSP-9 is capable of competing against assault rifles from afar thanks to its impressive accuracy. Even better, following a buff in Season 3 Reloaded it also has a rapid sprint to fire time making it well suited to close-range duels too.

Here’s the best WSP-9 loadout to use in Modern Warfare 3 including attachments, perks, and equipment all chosen to get the most out of this adaptable SMG.

Best WSP-9 MW3 loadout

Attachments

• Muzzle: Zehmn35 Compensated Flash Hider
• Optic: JAK Glassless Optic
• Stock: WSP Classics Factory Stock
• Underbarrel: XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop
• Magazine: 32 Round Mag

The WSP-9 has benefitted a lot from new attachments that have been added to Modern Warfare 3 post-release. A great example of this is the excellent Zehmn35 Compensated Flash Hider which improves recoil control while only slightly reducing handling. Similarly, the WSP Classics Factory Stock massively reduces recoil which ensures that this rendition of the Uzi remains accurate even at long range.

Similarly, the JAK Glassless Optic is the best sight in MW3 right now and the WSP-9 needs it. This SMG’s default iron sights are very difficult as they obscure your vision, so using a meta optic like this makes hitting shots much easier.

Another big problem with the WSP-9 that needs to be addressed is its tiny magazine. Even with its slow fire rate a 25 round magazine simply doesn’t cut it. To solve this issue, equip the 32 Round Mag which reduces how often you’ll need to reload and makes it less likely you’ll get caught out doing so.

The last attachment worth using is the XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop. This underbarrel boosts several key stats for an SMG like ADS Speed and ADS Movement Speed. These keep the WSP-9 feeling snappy and responsive despite all of the other heavy attachments on this loadout.

Best WSP-9 class: Perks and equipment

• Vest: CCT Comms Vest
  • Team intelligence vest that increases the duration enemies stay on the radar, makes enemies drop intel packs that generate radar pings and zooms out minimap.
• Gloves: Assault Gloves
  • While jumping, accuracy and time to ADS is improved.
• Boots: Covert Sneakers
  • Eliminates footstep sounds
• Gear 1: Ghost T/V Camo
  • While moving, blocks detection by UAVs, enemy radar sources, and Heartbeat Sensors.
• Gear 2: Blacklight Flashlight
  • Shows recent enemy footsteps

The CCT Comms Vest causes enemies you kill to drop intel packs, which generate radar pings revealing other nearby foes. It also increases the duration enemies stay on radar which is extremely strong when running around with a UAV active.

Another big benefit to this vest is it provides four equipment slots: Gloves, Boots, and two Gear. This comes at the cost of both lethal and tactical grenades but that trade-off is worthwhile. For Gloves, the Assault Gloves are recommended as they enable a more aggressive playstyle suited to an MW3 SMG like the WSP-9.

Covert Sneakers are a must for the boots slot as they silence footsteps letting you flank enemies much easier. This partners well with Ghost T/V Camo which hides you from enemy radar pings, combining with the Zehmn35 Compensated Flash Hider’s shortened radar pings to create a top-tier stealth loadout.

The second Gear slot can be adjusted to suit your playstyle, but Blacklight Flashlight has great synergy with the WSP-9. With this perk equipped, you can track down enemies by following their footprints, using this SMG’s high mobility to your advantage.

The Striker is another slow-firing SMG that is extremely accurate with a competitive TTK. Just like the WSP-9, the Striker has been buffed a few times and is now amongst the best SMGs in Modern Warfare 3.
