The XM4 was once a highly popular hybrid choice in Warzone Verdansk, versatile enough to serve as both an AR and an SMG, depending on your needs and how you customized it. Now, a new loadout from Modern Warfare 3 might evoke that classic XM4 experience for nostalgic players.

Warzone 1 has plenty of features that players look back on fondly. With Verdansk set to return in the relatively near future, many fans hope to revisit or relive the iconic meta weapons and moments from that era.

One such weapon is the XM4, a top-tier assault rifle in Black Ops Cold War, so powerful that it was even banned by pros in the Call of Duty League.

While the M4 from Modern Warfare 2 had its moment of fame, it pales in comparison to the MW3 assault rifles, prompting players to tweak their classes to stay competitive.

That’s exactly what tcTekk did when he created this nostalgic “XM4” loadout using the MCW from MW3. Here’s his setup:

• Muzzle: Quartermaster Suppressor
• Underbarrel: Paracord Grip
• Magazine: 40 Round Mag
• Optic: Nydar Model 2023
• Conversion Kit: JAK Raven Kit
   

  While this weapon won’t perfectly replicate the feel of the XM4, it comes pretty close. We suggest giving it a try, but don’t hesitate to tweak some of the attachments to suit your personal preferences.

  For instance, back when the original XM4 was a meta choice, many players ran it without a scope. You might want to skip the optic in favor of an extended magazine or a stock, which could enhance your mobility and overall performance.
