A suppressor is essential for stealthy gameplay. It reduces the weapon’s audible range, making it harder for enemies to pinpoint your location.

We add the Precision Foregrip as the underbarrel. This attachment helps control the AK-74’s notorious horizontal recoil, making it easier to land accurate shots.

For the magazine, we have chosen the Fast Mag. It helps with faster reloads that are crucial in intense firefights, ensuring you’re back in action sooner.

Pair that with the Fire Mod attachment Rapid Fire. It increases the weapon’s fire rate, allowing you to deliver more damage in a shorter amount of time.

Lastly, the Quickdraw rear grip will significantly reduce your ADS (Aim Down Sights) time, allowing you to react quicker to enemy threats.
