From the beta, we saw the Kastov-74u move the classic AK submachine gun to an assault rifle, and it's in this loadout again in Warzone 2 and MW2. While it's no longer and sub, the best Kastov-74u loadout isn't strictly an AR either, and best serves as something in the middle, kind of how the Cold War variant of this gun could kill people within spitting distance and across the entire map. So, need a perfect flex gun? Here is the best Warzone 2 and MW2 Kastov-74u loadout.

Best Warzone 2 Kastov-74u Loadout - Attachments And Perks

The Kastov-74u assault riffle is an absolute beast in Warzone 2. Serving as a solid alternative to SMGs thanks to its high mobility and mowing potential.

Warzone 2 has made sure the Kastov-74u handles rapidly, so our best Warzone 2 loadout focuses on building the assault riffle out a bit. Increasing magazine size and reducing recoil to name a couple of enhancements. Here's the full deal:

  • Barrel: Shorttac 330mm
  • Underbarrel: FTAC Tiger Grip
  • Ammunition: 5.45 High Velocity
  • Magazine: 45-Round Mag
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro

Whilst the Kastov-74u is a fast assault rifle that will tear up in close-combat scenarios. So we're going to go with a Sniper Rifle with some quick action for a secondary weapon. We've also got double time and fast hands in perks to take full advantage of close-combat carnage with this absolute beast of an assault rifle.

  • Secondary - Signal 50
  • Tactical - Flash Grenade
  • Lethal - Frag
  • Perk 1 - Double Time & Scavenger
  • Perk 2 - Fast Hands
  • Perk 3 - Quick Fix
  • Field Upgrade - Dead Silence

Even the description of the new-look AK sub-turned-AR reads this is "a rifle optimised for short to medium distances with a shortened receiver and barrels designed for short-range," admitting that the best MW2 Kastov-74u loadout needs to be more of a hybrid weapon than an actual Assault Rifle.

  • Barrel - Shorttac 330mm
  • Muzzle- RF Crown 50 
  • Underbarrel - Merc Foregrip
  • Stock - Markeev R7 Stock

This weapon best serves the 'flex role', suiting the AR/sub hybrid down to the ground, meaning you're going to need to adapt to the need for movement. Double Time, Dead Silence, Fast Hands, and Quick Fix are crucial. 

Scavenger is a solid enough option too, although if you're accustomed to Hardpoint or Domination, Battle Hardened is a better choice. We'd also recommend the X13, but with so much movement, you could also use this opportunity to get Combat Knife kills for your mastery camo grind.

  • Field Upgrade - Dead Silence

Submachine gun or assault rifle? Who cares? The best Warzone 2 and MW2 Kastov-74u loadout shreds players at will, and you will want to get your hands on this gun as soon as possible.
