The muzzle attachment is a no-brainer. The Casus Brake significantly reduces vertical recoil, allowing you to land those crucial long-range shots with ease.

Our choice of the barrel extends your effective range. This attachment also boosts bullet velocity and damage over distance, making the MCW a threat at medium to long ranges.

While some prefer iron sights, the JAK Glassless Optic provides a clear advantage in knocking targets quickly. This lightweight optic offers excellent magnification without sacrificing ADS (Aim Down Sight) speed.

The Bruen Heavy Support Grip further enhances recoil control. This attachment helps remove horizontal bounce, allowing for more precise bursts and improved fire accuracy.

The 60 Round Drum magazine is perfect for aggressive players who favor sustained fights. The 60-round capacity ensures you can take down multiple enemies without reloading.
