Now that COD: Warzone’s Season 3 is in full swing, it’s time to take another look at the PPSh-41. It was a great weapon before Season 3, though it always felt like it was missing something.
What makes the PPSh-41 so good is its high bullet velocity and low recoil. Naturally, the goal of this PPSh-41 loadout in COD: Warzone is simple: improve recoil further, accuracy, and ADS speed. Players need the perfect attachments to slip in and out of fights while also being able to stick around if the fight lengthens.
Should players wish to give this phenomenal SMG another try, here’s the best loadout for the PPSh-41 in Season 3 of COD: Warzone.
Note: This article reflects the opinions of the writer
What is the ideal loadout for the PPSh-41 in COD: Warzone Season 3?
- Muzzle: Recoil Booster
- Barrel: ZAC 300mm
- Optic: Slate Reflector
- Stock: ZAC Folding
- Underbarrel: Mark VI Skeletal
- Magazine: 7.62mm Gorenko 71 Round Mags
- Ammo Type: Lengthened
- Rear Grip: Fabric Grip
- Weapon Perk 1: Fleet
- Weapon Perk 2: Fully Loaded
To best achieve the aforementioned goal, fit the PPSh-41 with the Recoil Booster, ZAC 300mm Barrel, ZAC Folding Stock, the Mark VI Skeletal Underbarrel, and Fabric Grip Rear Grip. These play on the PPSh-41’s strengths in close combat, which is ideal considering Season 3’s meta shifting towards close-range fights.
The PPSh-41 gains a great amount of recoil control across the board, especially during the initial opening of a gunfight. On top of that, the stock, underbarrel, and rear grip offer increased ADS speed so that the weapon snaps right on your target.
With Fleet and Fully Loaded, you’ll be quick on your feet and have plenty of ammo.
The best perks and equipment to pair with the PPSh-41 loadout
- Perk 1: E.O.D.
- Perk 2: Overkill
- Perk 3: Combat Scout
- Secondary: BAR
- Lethal: Frag Grenade
- Tactical: Stim
E.O.D. and Overkill are pretty standard at this point in COD: Warzone. The former reduces explosives damage, and the latter allows you to equip another primary weapon. There’s some flexibility in what you choose as your second primary, so pick what works for you. The same can be said about Stim and Combat Scout.
Stim doubles as a speed boost and health regeneration, though the latter is secondary. Ideally, Stim should be used just before a fight.
Considering the busy terrain, Combat Scout is helpful for keeping enemies highlighted, even if you managed to hit them with a stray bullet.
However, if neither works for you, you’re welcome to make changes.
