Best BAS-P loadout for Modern Warfare 2

Modern Warfare 2’s BAS-P SMG remains a fantastic close-range option, despite being introduced in the game’s first season. We’ve got the best BAS-P loadout in Modern Warfare 2, including the best attachments, Perks, and Equipment.

The BAS-P is a post-launch Modern Warfare 2 weapon that arrived with the Season 1 update. Given its incredible stats, this powerful SMG remains a top-tier option for close-range gunfights, especially after receiving major buffs with the latest updates.

The devs describe it as a gun with an “aggressive fire rate and modular frame” and the weapon has become a strong choice in the close-range meta.

We’ve got the best BAS-P loadout in Modern Warfare 2, which will show off the top attachments, Perks, and Equipment to make this SMG one of the game’s best.

Best Modern Warfare 2 BAS-P loadout attachments

• Barrel: 10.5″ Bruen Typhon
• Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
• Underbarrel: FSS Sharkfin 90
• Rear Grip: D37 Grip
• Magazine: 50 Round Drum

Kicking off our best BAS-P loadout for Modern Warfare 2 is the 10.5″ Bruen Typhon Barrel. This option boosts the SMG’s damage range and bullet velocity, while also suppressing its shots for stealthy gameplay.

It’s important to be quick off the draw with an SMG, so the VLK LZR 7MW Laser will increase the ADS and sprint-to-fire speed, as well as general aiming stability. We’ve paired this with the FSS Sharkfin 90 for even more stability, making the BAS-P more effective at mid-range.

With such a quick fire rate, the BAS-P does suffer a little with recoil, but the D37 Grip goes a long way toward keeping it under control. Finally, we’ve got 50 Round Drums for extra ammo capacity, making sure you always have enough bullets to deal with multiple enemies.

Best Modern Warfare 2 BAS-P Perks & Equipment

• Base Perk 1: Bomb Squad
• Base Perk 2: Double Time
• Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
• Ultimate Perk: Ghost
• Lethal Equipment: Semtex
• Tactical Equipment: Flash Grenade
• Field Upgrade: Dead Silence

You’ll most likely be tearing around the map with the BAS-P in Modern Warfare 2, so the Bomb Squad Perk will help you tank any explosives that would normally stop a killstreak dead. Meanwhile, pairing it with Double Time will make it easier to get around the map quickly.

In the Bonus slot, we’ve got Fast Hands, reducing the BAS-P’s reload time. Ghost is also a vital Perk for this loadout, keeping you off the radar to open up flanking opportunities.

Rounding the best BAS-P loadout are the Semtex, Flash Grenade, and Dead Silence. The Semtex is ideal for clearing objectives quickly, as are Flash Grenades, and Dead Silence lets you move around the map silently for a short period.

How to unlock the BAS-P in Modern Warfare 2

The BAS-P is unlocked in Modern Warfare 2 by getting 25 headshots using SMGs. Players can also head to Warzone 2’s DMZ to extract the weapon in that mode as an unlock method.

Originally, the BAS-P arrived via the Modern Warfare 2’s first Battle Pass and was earned by completing Sector A6.

Best BAS-P alternatives in Modern Warfare 2

Modern Warfare 2 is crammed full of top SMGs, so we recommend switching to the Lachmann Sub MP5 if the BAS-P isn’t working out.

On the other hand, there’s the Vaznev 9k, which is one of the best weapons to use in Modern Warfare 2 Ranked Play.
