Modern Warfare 2 Season 4 hasn't brought any significant change to the stats of the weapons of the title. The SMG category, in particular, has been left untouched and the meta from the previous season remains valid in the latest patch. One such gun from the last season, which is still a powerful close-range option in Season 4 is the MX-9 SMG.

The MX9 has recently seen a steady rise in its pick rate among Modern Warfare 2 players. The gun always had the super-fast TTK needed to be in the meta-tier, but it lacked response speed. But with its Season 3 buff to sprint to fire speed in the, it has turned into an absolute monster in close-range gunfights.

The MX9 sub-machine gun of Modern Warfare 2 is modeled after the real-life Steyr AUG Para and belongs to the Bruen Bullpup platform in the game's armory. It is a bullpup SMG whose rate of fire is at the higher end of the category.

One of the key aspects of the gun players love is its excellent strafe speed. It allows players to react quickly and drop their opponents when they appear in their view-line.

Additionally, the first damage drop-off of the MX9 is at a further distance than its compatriots in the SMG category. The range of the first damage drop-off stands at 12 meters, which is a bit higher than the usual 8-9 meter damage drop-off of the other SMGs. This will enable players to engage enemies at an even higher distance.

The 16.5" Bruen S901 barrel is perfect for MX9's multiplayer mode setup. It improves the gun's damage range, movement speed, bullet velocity, and hip-fire accuracy.

The Cronen Mini Pro is a blue dot sight regarded as the best close-range scope available in the game. It provides a clear view while the gun is ADSed, along with a clear view of the periphery.

The default magazine of the gun contains just 25 bullets, which is definitely not sufficient for engaging against multiple enemies. As such, the 32 Round Mag is an extremely important attachment to the gun.

Both the Bruen Q900 Grip and FTAC C11 Riser comb increase upon the aim down sight and sprint to fire speed of the firearm. These two will ensure that the gun is snappy enough for any multiplayer match in Modern Warfare 2.
