Although there are plenty of guns for your custom loadouts in MW3, very few are as good as the Striker SMG.
Here’s the best Striker loadout to use in Modern Warfare 3, so you can make quick work of your enemies in close-range gunfights:
Attachment | How to Unlock |
Striker Recon Long Barrel (Barrel) | Striker Level 9 |
MK. 3 Reflector (Optic) | MTZ-556 Level 2 |
Lachmann MK2 Light Stock (Stock) | Striker Level 10 |
Chewk Angled Grip (Underbarrel) | Longbow Level 11 |
Sakin ZX Grip (Rear Grip) | Striker Level 20 |
With these attachments, the Striker retains its fast time to kill and mobility. However, it also has increased recoil control, damage range, and bullet velocity.
This loadout makes the Striker a deadly weapon at mid-range, in addition to close-quarters combat in MW3!

Also, feel free to use any optic of your choice – or no optic at all! If you prefer ironsights, we suggest using an extended magazine in place of the MK. 3 Reflector.
