Despite its lacklustre rate of fire, the Minibak has excellent recoil control and accuracy which can be further fine-tuned. Read here for the best Minibak loadout inCall Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
Why use the Minibak in MW3?
As discussed above, the Minibak hasn’t had a great reception from the fanbase so far. However, as far as SMGs go, it does offer great recoil control, and can excel when paired with the right secondary weapons.
For this build, we’ve chosen attachments to increase the Minibak’s rate of fire and try and bring it in line with proper SMG standards. Since there is little we can do to improve its standing at close range, we’ve opted for attachments that will increase the gun’s damage at longer ranges so it can function as a solid mid-range gun option.
Crucial to this build is theBAK-9 279mm BarrelandSinguard MKVmuzzle which will increase the Minibak’s range and bullet velocity. The drawback to these attachments is the dip in ADS speed. As such, consider using theTrue-Tac GripandFSS OLE-V Laserto bring these stats back up and make the Minibak better to handle.
Lastly, choose a good optic to help with accuracy now that the Minibak has been optimised for an increased range. Any optic will do, but if you don’t already have a favourite then theCronen Mini Prois a solid choice.
FJX Imperium, Lockwood 300.
As the Miniback has been optimised for mid-range combat, we suggest picking up a second weapon that either performs well in close or long-ranged combat. If sniping is your thing, theFJX Imperiumis performing incredibly well currently, with all-around fantastic stats which make it a great quickscoping sniper, capable of one-shot kills without any handling issues.
Alternatrively, if you prefer to get up-close-and-personal with your opponents, a good shotgun like theLockwood 300could be the way to go. The Lockwood 300 is one of thebest shotguns in Modern Warfare 3currently, mostly due to the accompanying Maelstrom Dual Trigger which allows you to shoot both shells at once for double impact and damage.
Overkill Vest, Marksman Gloves, Stalker Boots, Mag Holster, EMD Grenade, Semtex.
As this build relies somewhat on a second weapon to pick up the slack, we recommend using either the Gunner Vest or OverkillVest. Although it has higher unlock requirements, we think theOverkill Vestis perfect for this loadout, as it also gives you the fast hands perk and the ability to reload whilst sprinting. When paired with a good set ofgloves, such as theMarksman Gloveswhich give a reduction of sway while ADS, you have a solid loadout.
For yourbootsof choice, theStalker Bootswill provide an increase to strafe and ADS movement speed, which you’ll need to make up for the gun’s lower rate of fire, trading firepower for accuracy. When choosing Gear, we think theMag Holsteris the best option for this build as it will improve your reload speed, limiting the time you’re left open to attacks.
Lastly, you’ll need to pick aLethalandTacticaloption to deploy with. We’ve chosen theEMD Grenadewhich should relieve some of the pressure if you can’t secure a one-shot kill. The grenade essentially applies a tracking device to hit enemies, meaning your teammates can mop them up at a later time. Along with this, consider choosing theSemtex, a timed sticky grenade that you can attach to enemies or vehicles, then watch from a safe distance as they’re blown to smithereens.

Striker, Lachmann Sub.
If the Minibak isn’t packing quite the punch for you, there are many SMG options ripe for the picking. TheStrikerandLachmann Subboth make our list of thebest SMGs in Modern Warfare 3currently, with the Striker offering the golden combination of both damage output and range.
The Lachmann Sub is also a worthy alternative, boasting a fantastic rate of fire that leaves the Minibak in the dust. With all-around great stats, the Lachmann Sub is well-suited to run-and-gun combat, which has earned it a high place in Modern Warfare 3’s gun roster.
