The best Warzone LC10 loadout will give you a great close range SMG with some surprising range potential with the right attachements. This Cold War gun has some high damage, impressive muzzle velocity, and low recoil that lets it hold its own at medium range better than a lot of other SMGs. It's a good tool for multitasking in Call of Duty Warzone, letting you lear room and nutralise threats at point blank, but also stand a chance in more open areas over longer distances. As a result this an ideal firearm for many situations.  With that in mind these are the best Warzone LC10 loadout options and the best attachments to use. 

Warzone best LC10 loadout for close quarters

  • Muzzle: Agency Suppressor
  • Barrel: 13.9” Task Force
  • Stock: No Stock
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Ammunition: Salvo 52 Rnd Fast Mag

Before jumping into some medium range to all-around builds, let’s first cover what an SMG does best: taking out enemies up close. For this LC10 loadout we recommend sticking with the Agency Suppressor Muzzle, so you don’t show up on the minimap, while also improving your recoil control. It will lower your damage range, but since you’re using this build up close, that shouldn’t matter. And thanks to the improved vertical recoil control, you’ll have a much easier time holding down the trigger to secure those close quarters eliminations.

Next, you’ll want to use the 13.9” Task Force Barrel, which boosts your mobility, damage range, bullet velocity, and strafe speed. This will help you land your shots while being able to move slightly faster. After that, we advise going with the No Stock, to give you a faster sprint to fire time, perfect for enemies who appear unexpectedly. 

We then recommend using the Field Agent Grip Underbarrel, which improves your vertical and horizontal recoil. This will always come in handy, regardless of range. Finally, go with the Salvo 52 RND Fast Mag for the extra ammo. You can use the STANAG 55 RND Ammunition, but it’s a little slower in every regard, so the 52 RND Fast Mag will work better up close.

  • Muzzle: SOCOM Eliminator
  • Barrel: 11.9” Reinforced Heavy
  • Optic: SnapPoint
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Ammunition: STANAG 55 Rnd

Arguably the best way to use the LC10 is at medium range, so this LC10 loadout will help you in those situations. Start with the SOCOM Eliminator Muzzle to improve your recoil control and aiming stability. Then, go with the 11.9” Reinforced Heavy Barrel to help with your damage range and bullet velocity - once again, a great choice for medium range.

Since you’ll be using this build from afar, we recommend going with an Optic to ensure you’re as accurate as possible. The SnapPoint is very clean, but go with whatever you prefer. You won’t need anything with too much magnification, but at least 1.25x will work wonders. Again, the Field Agent Grip Underbarrel is excellent to improve your vertical and horizontal recoil control.

Finally, we advise going with the STANAG 55 RND Ammunition to ensure you’ve got plenty of ammo to take out enemies at medium range. The 52 RND Mags will give you a slight speed boost, but when firing from medium range, every bullet counts. You’ll also notice this build is unsurpassed and is a bit slower, so don’t expect to dominate up close when using these attachments. Instead, you’ll want to focus on accuracy and depending on the distance, you should tap the trigger instead of holding it down.

Warzone best LC10 loadout all-around

  • Muzzle: Agency Suppressor
  • Barrel: 13.9” Task Force Barrel
  • Stock: Raider Stock
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Ammunition: STANAG 55 Rnd

In Warzone, you’ll come across many different situations, so you’ll want to bring a well-rounded LC10 loadout with you to the fight. Go with the Agency Suppressor Muzzle this time to avoid showing up on the minimap when firing, and to boost your vertical recoil control. After that, we recommend the 13.9” Task Force Barrel for improved damage range, bullet velocity, and strafe speed - all of which are useful at close to medium range.

Then, we recommend the Raider Stock, which increases your ADS firing move speed, your aim walking movement speed, and your sprint to fire time - once again, great for many situations - but especially up close. Then, we advise sticking with the Field Agent Grip Underbarrel for improved recoil control.

Finally, the STANAG 55 RND Ammunition will ensure you’ve got plenty of ammo to secure one or more eliminations. If you find it to be too slow, you can downgrade to the Salvo 52 RND, which will improve your speed and lower your reload times. This build will work up close and at medium range, which is ideal since Warzone engagements come in all forms. While it might be best to focus on either close quarters or medium range, it does pay to have something that works well for both, even if it doesn’t dominate in either regard.
