Modern Warfare 2, a recent addition to the COD series, offers over 9 different weapon categories to choose from. Submachine guns are one of the categories of weapons that are best for close combat in MW 2. Submachine guns are most important for getting close to enemies and getting behind enemy lines. There is a wide range of these weapons that you can choose from. So, check out our guide to find out the best SMG in MW2.
What is the best SMG in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
There are several factors involved in equipping a submachine gun. While some submachine guns are best for close combat, others are ideal for higher fire rates or damage. So, here are the best submachine guns, ranked from best to worst in Modern Warfare 2:
- Lachmann Sub aka MP5
- FSS Hurricane
- Fenech 45
Let’s look at these higher rank submachine guns in more detail:
Lachmann Sub
The Lachmann Sub or more commonly known as the MP5 is the best submachine gun of all. This is because this weapon can fight not only at close range, but also at medium range. Also, its rate of fire is lightning fast compared to other submachine guns. But in terms of his range, he’s a bit slack or low when you start with him. You can equip Cronen Red Optic, FTAC M-Sub receiver and SA Schalldämper 99 muzzle suppressor to balance this.

FSS Hurricane SMG in Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2
Here is another beast that can ward off enemies in close combat. The best thing about this submachine gun is its extended 50-round magazine. Its recoil control is pretty decent and the FSS Hurricane is pretty accurate. But it can be a little tricky to use in mid-range combat.
Fenech 45
Another better choice would be the Fennec 45 SMG. This weapon excels in its rate of fire and mobility, and can also deal a lot of damage. But some of the factors that this submachine gun lacks are its accuracy and recoil. This way, he can rush a bit during a mid-range fight. In my opinion, the Fennec 45 is the perfect weapon for taking out enemies at close range. You can check out our guide on how to unlock Fennec 45 for more information.
But, as mentioned earlier, there are many factors that go into choosing the right submachine gun. It depends on its range, rate of fire, accuracy, mobility and damage. So, choose your SMG wisely according to your playstyle and fitness.
