The ever-changing landscape of Warzone has had many contenders for “the most overpowered” setups of all time, and the Bruen Mk9’s dominance is on the list for sure.

Sometimes in Call of Duty: Warzone, Vanguard, Black Ops Cold War, or Modern Warfare, all it takes is a few popular players to use a loadout to bring it to the forefront. That’s exactly what happened with the Bruen Mk9 light machine gun in the summer of 2020.

Fast forward to nearly two years later, and the Bruen is still a very strong LMG in Warzone with the right attachments. If you equip it with the proper loadout, you can dominate Caldera or MW multiplayer just as easily, especially with a recent change to the most popular setup.

The Bruen is still an absolute beast with the proper loadout. Here are a few of the best in the game.

  • Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
  • Barrel: XRK Summit 26.8″
  • Optic: VLK 3.0x Optic
  • Underbarrel: Commando Foregrip
  • Magazine: 60 Round Mags

The loadout that set the world ablaze last year is still as strong as ever, but the optic can be swapped out whether you want to use the gun at short or medium-to-long ranges. To help control its recoil, many players are now using the Commando grip as opposed to a laser sight, and the biggest most recent change is swapping out 60 Round Mags for the massive 200 Round Belt.

Run and gun

  • Barrel: Bruen 18.0″ Para
  • Laser: Tac Laser
  • Stock: FSS Close Quarters Stock
  • Ammunition: 60 Round Mags
  • Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Tape

The Bruen can actually be kitted to perform like an assault rifle hybrid with loadouts like this. It greatly increases mobility and aim down sight speed for players who like to run and gun.

Wall-mounter mayhem

  • Barrel: XRK Summit 26.8″
  • Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
  • Ammunition: 200 Round Belt
  • Rear Grip: Granulated Grip Tape
  • Perk: Fully Loaded

This loadout is perfect for those who like to mount on a wall and watch a lane while holding down the trigger. It’ll keep you firing for days on end with improved accuracy, range, and control.
