Attachments: Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
This Call of Duty WW2 weapon has a very low recoil which is great for long-range combat. The advanced rifling attachment works well with this for that reason. The 4x Optic and the reflex sight are both viable options to go along with it.
M1 Garand
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
Perhaps the most popular WW2 rifle. This semi-automatic rifle in Call of Duty WW2 is perfect for all sorts of combat.
It is stable, reliable and is great for wall banging. Hustle or Forage are good Training to have with it and the Quickdraw with the Extended Mag is perfect for the attachments. Optionally, you can also use the 4x Optic or the Reflex Sight.
STG 44
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
Due to its high rate of fire, it is good for close quarter combat. Use grip and Extended Mag with it for maximum effect.
M1A1 Carbine
Attachments: Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
This Call of Duty WW2 weapon has low damage and you need to hit 3 bullets to kill an enemy. The weapon is accurate but the low damage makes it so that you need to be extremely efficient with it.
Rapid Fire is good for compensating for the low damage and Advanced Rifling will make this weapon along with its attachments viable at longer ranges.
FG 42
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
This is good for firing from the hip. Use it in close quarter maps for maximum effect. Attach steady aim for more control and a reflex sight if you are looking to use it at mid-range.
BAR
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
Ah, the classic, it is a good all-around weapon. Use a Reflex Sight or Grip for mid-ranged play or Rapid Fire for close quarter combat with it. This is a very versatile weapon which can be sued for almost all styles of play.
SVT-40
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Grip, Reflex Sight, High Caliber, Stead Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Rapid Fire, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling.
It is a slower rifle but has a lot of damage. Use a Reflex Sight a Grip to get the most out of it.
SMGs
Grease Gun
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Reflex Sight, Grip, Steady Aim, Full Metal Jacket, Advanced Rifling, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
This is a difficult weapon to master. Try attaching Advanced Rifling and Extended Mags so you can fight enemies at mid-range.
PPSh-41
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Reflex Sight, Grip, Steady Aim, and Full Metal Jacket, Advanced Rifling, Extended Mag, And Rapid Fire.
This has a large magazine so you can use hip fire at close quarters without any worries. Try to use it for run and gun as it fits that style of play very well. The best attachment is Steady Aim with Extended Mag.
LMGs
Lewis
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Reflex Sight, Grip, Steady Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
This is a good well-rounded weapon. Use the bipod to counter the recoil and the 4x Optic to pin down enemies at long range.
MG 15
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Reflex Sight, Grip, Steady Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
It has a fast rate of fire so you should use it at close range. The best attachments are Grip, Extended Mag, and Steady Aim.
Bren
Attachments: Lens Sight, Quickdraw, Reflex Sight, Grip, Steady Aim, Full Metal Jacket, 4x Optic, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
This is a tad slower than the other LMGS, however, it has increased damage and range. Use it with Grip and Rapid Fire for maximum effect.
Sniper Rifles
Karabin
Attachments: 4x Optic, Ballistic Calibration, Full Metal Jacket, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
This does not pack a massive punch but is semi-automatic and good for medium range sniping. Use the 4x Scope for effective combat.
Lee Enfield
Attachments: 4x Optic, Ballistic Calibration, Full Metal Jacket, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
Not only is this very powerful, but it has a decent magazine as well. 4x Scope is good for this as it enables mid-range combat.
M1903
Attachments: 4x Optic, Ballistic Calibration, Full Metal Jacket, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
This is a good one shot one kill weapon but has a very slow rate of fire. Rapid Fire and Ballistic Calibration are good choices for this weapon.
Kar98k
Attachments: 4x Optic, Ballistic Calibration, Full Metal Jacket, Extended Mag, Rapid Fire.
The staple of many a World War 2 game, this is an extremely well-rounded rifle. Full Metal Jacket or Extended Mag works well with this gun.
Shotguns
Combat Shotgun
Attachments: Reflex Sight, Quickdraw, Steady Aim, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling, Rapid Fire.
Perhaps the best shotgun in the game. Perfect for hip firing at close range with the Steady Aim and Rapid Fire to wreak havoc.
M30 Luftwaffe Drilling
Attachments: Reflex Sight, Quickdraw, Steady Aim, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling, Rapid Fire.
A decent weapon with massive damage. Although only effective at very close ranges. Use the Riffle Bullet and Advanced Rifling to compensate for the aforementioned fact.
Toggle Action
Attachments: Reflex Sight, Quickdraw, Steady Aim, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling, Rapid Fire.
A semi-automatic shotgun which has a decent rate of fire but no damage. Avoid using this as there are better options available.
Model 21
Attachments: Reflex Sight, Quickdraw, Steady Aim, Extended Mag, Advanced Rifling, Rapid Fire.
This has a decent bullet spread but low damage. Advanced Rifling and Rapid Fire are good attachments but I would avoid using this due to the fact that it has no real advantage.
Secondary Weapons
P-08
A pistol with good accuracy but not much damage.
1911
Perhaps the best pistol has decent damage and accuracy. Perfect for players with good aim.
Machine Pistol
Good rate of fire but not a lot of ammo. Might be good for one kill but do not expect killing sprees.
M1 Bazooka
Good for taking down aircrafts but can also be used to take down enemies on the ground.
Panzershreck
This is designed for taking down enemy personnel. Does not require a good accuracy so it is good for players who are looking for easy kills.
