The M4A1 assault rifle is widely considered to be the best weapon in Call of Duty: Warzone following the Akimbo Snakeshot nerf. While there’s still some debate between the M4A1 and Grau 5.56, most agree the former is a better choice overall. That said, it’s a great idea to dedicate a few of your loadout slots to different M4 classes.
However, there a ton of options when it comes to attachments. If you’re struggling with the large selection, don’t worry, as we’ve put together the best loadouts for the M4A1 in Warzone.
Balanced
Attachments
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: Stock M16 Grenadier
- Stock: M-16 Stock
- Underbarrel: Operator Foregrip
- Ammunition: 60 Round Mags
Extras
- Secondary: HDR
- Perks: Cold-Blooded, Overkill, Amped
- Equipment: Frage Grenade, Flash Grenade
This is a loadout we went over in a previous guide, which detailed the best classes in Warzone. Even after a few updates, this class stands the test of time and is still one of the best you can use. It’s perfect for any situation and mixes in some great attachments that maximize different areas. The Monolithic Suppressor helps you stay off the map, and the 60 Round Mags enable you to fire for an extended period. If you’re going for a non-situational loadout, this is your best bet.
Long Range
Attachments
- Barrel: Corvus Custom Marksman
- Optic: Integral Hybrid
- Stock: M-16 Stock
- Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
- Rear Grip: Rubberized Grip Tape
Extras
- Secondary: MP5
- Perks: Cold-Blooded, Overkill, Spotter
- Equipment: Frag Grenade, Heartbeat Sensor
Next up, we have a class that is suited for long-range engagements but is still serviceable up close. With this loadout, you want to stay back and try to pick enemies off from a distance. Because of this, we no longer equip extra ammunition and instead opt for some stability attachments like the Rubberized Grip Tape. So, while you can’t fire for very long, you’ll be extremely accurate, which should negate the need for a few extra bullets.
Aggressive
Attachments
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: Corvus Custom Marksman
- Stock: No Stock
- Ammunition: 60 Round Mags
- Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Tape
Extras
- Secondary: Kar98k
- Perks: E.O.D., Overkill, Tracker
- Equipment: Semtex Grenade, Stun Grenade
This loadout is meant for players that like to rush every single engagement and get up in enemy’s faces. Each attachment is especially suited for just that, so this M4A1 won’t excel at much else. You might be able to do well at medium ranges, but long-range fights are simply out of the question. That shouldn’t be a problem, though, if you stick to buildings and narrow spaces. With attachments like Stippled Grip Tape and No Stock, you’ll be pulling your gun up fairly quickly, giving your enemy little chance if you can hit all of your shots.
