The Dravec 45 is arguably the best SMG in Black Ops 7, but what’s its best loadout?
The Dravec 45 has quickly emerged as the best and most popular submachine gun in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. This is for multiple reasons, but the SMG simply kills faster at all ranges than the other options we currently have in multiplayer. However, to get the most out of the Dravec 45 and make it into the best SMG in Black Ops 7, you'll need the right loadout for it.
Like all guns in multiplayer, a gun is only as strong as the attachments you equip on it. While the Dravec 45 is quite strong by default, equipping some key attachments on its loadout turns it into another monster in Black Ops 7. Check out the guide below to see the attachments we recommend on the Dravec 45.
Best loadout for the Dravec 45 in Black Ops 7
Before we get into the loadout, these attachments are currently stemming from the multiplayer beta in Black Ops 7. This means that the loadout is highly subject to change depending on new attachments in the full game or weapon balancing that comes via an update. While the Dravec 45 will likely remain a top SMG regardless of what happens before Nov. 14 or shortly after, its recommended loadout could easily change if it's nerfed in a certain way.
With that out of the way, let's get into the best Dravec 45 loadout in Black Ops 7:
- Muzzle: Hawker Hybrid 45
- Barrel: 14" Verse Barrel
- Magazine: Frontgate Fast Loader
- Rear Grip: Herald-Z1 Grip
- Stock: Serval Q-Step Stock
This loadout for the Dravec 45 primarily focuses on mobility while also adding some key damage and accuracy that makes it nearly unstoppable at longer ranges. When you equip these attachments, you'll see that you barely have to control the SMG, even at 30+ meters, and enemies drop extremely quickly, no matter where you shoot them from on the map.
You could opt for more recoil control by adding the Gunfighter Wildcard and using three more attachments. However, that's likely better saved for the Perk Greed or Specialist Wildcards, as the Draved 45 doesn't need a ton of help to be a strong weapon.
We'll update this loadout guide with new attachments if there's a new meta for the Dravec 45 at any point between now and after the launch of Black Ops 7.
