Unusually for a Shotgun build, our best Bryson 800 loadout for MW2 doesn’t include a barrel attachment to tighten or widen the pellet spread. Instead it keeps things at the default level, but spends a lot of slots on dramatically improving the Bryson 800’s responsiveness and handling, with cutthroat ADS and sprint-to-fire speeds that ensure a quick and easy hipfire kill at close range.
TheSA MX-50Muzzle has been carefully chosen here less for its suppression and so-called recoil smoothness (which actually does very little) and more for its damage range, which improves the Bryson 800’s consistency at the edge of its range. TheAgent Griphas also been added to the gun’s underbarrel to drastically improve the Bryson 800’s hipfire accuracy - a must-have for most Shotgun builds.
The remaining 3 attachment slots focus fully on handling speeds, with theSawed Off ModandVLK LZR 7MWLaser improving ADS and sprint-to-fire speeds considerably, and theDemo X50 Tactical Pumpincreasing the gun’s rechambering speed (as well as even more ADS speed) to ensure quick follow-up shots just in case your first shot isn’t lethal.
The Bryson 800 is powerful at close range, but you’ll need to pair it with a mid-range weapon to survive the majority of encounters in MW2. Our go-to weapon here would be one of thebest Assault Rifles in Modern Warfare 2, such as the powerfulM4or the extremely accurateSTB 556. If you want even more stopping power you can opt for aBattle Riflelike theFTAC Recon, but be warned that you’ll be using a build with pretty much no full-auto firing capabilities.
Overkillis definitely the first perk you’ll want to pick up while rounding off your Bryson 800 class, as it will allow you to equip one of the above weapons as your secondary. After this, pick up theDouble Timeperk to help you rush around the map and close the distance between you and the enemy more quickly.
Fast Handsis the ideal Bonus Perk for loadouts which will require you to quickly swap weapons to deal with enemies at different ranges. Finally, pick upQuick Fixas your Ultimate Perk, to help you recuperate health quickly after each kill, and hopefully keep you alive long enough to earn one of thebest Killstreaks in Modern Warfare 2.
When it comes to equipment, I’d advise you don’t overcomplicate things with this loadout. A simpleFrag Grenadecan do a lot of damage in a lot of different situations - particularly the kinds of indoor areas where you’re going to excel with the Bryson 800. And to that same end, pack aStun Grenadeas your tactical so you can turn a corner and get an easy kill instead of being instantly cut down by a prepared enemy.
