Best KSP 45 loadouts in Black Ops Cold War

Here’s the best KSP 45 class to use in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.

The KSP 45 is an oddball submachine gun in Black Ops Cold War. It’s a lightweight weapon with burst fire and a decent rate of fire. The delay between bursts is modest and the overall damage leaves a bit to be desired at longer ranges.

For close range engagements, this weapon truly shines, occasionally getting one burst kills on enemies.

In the video below, YouTuber “Paradox” shows us the best KSP 45 class he’s been running.

The Setup

This class setup will be utilizing all attachment slots, so we’ll be running the gunfighter wildcard for this.

  • Optic: Microflex LED – A balanced optic for all ranges. Provides minimal zoom, but excellent clarity of enemies, perhaps the best in its class. (Paradox also mentions the iron sights for the weapon are a solid choice as well)
  • Muzzle: SOCOM Eliminator – Higher muzzle concealment and more vertical recoil control, at the cost of some shooting move speed and horizontal recoil control.
  • Barrel: 10.5″ Task Force – Improves bullet velocity, effective damage range, and overall damage. Further penalizes vertical and horizontal recoil control, but gives a much needed range boost.
  • Body: Steady Aim Laser – Improved hip fire accuracy with no cons. Can’t go wrong with this.
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip – Additional vertical recoil control and a drastic improvement to horizontal recoil control. Further penalty to shooting move speed.
  • Magazine: Salvo 48 Round Fast Mags – More ammo, faster reloads. What’s not to love here? Comes at the cost of an increase in ADS speed.
  • Handle: Airborne Elastic Wrap – 90% flinch resistance basically eliminates all flinch. 30% aim down sight time decrease cancels out magazine penality. Dropshot to your heart’s content. The best handle in the game.
  • Stock: Raider Stock – 30% increase for sprint to fire time with a 10% aim walking movement speed increase.

Tips for the field

  • It’s all in the aim – Aim high, hit heads. Get one burst kills on unsuspecting enemies close up before they can react.
  • Get used to it – At first, you’ll hate the slow burst fire. Over time with practice though, you’ll get the timing down and things will improve fast.
  • Discipline, Discipline, Discipline – Catch enemies off guard and pick and choose your fights. Don’t take on the whole team head-on. You don’t have a fully automatic weapon and the burst delay will get you killed.

Now get on the field and tear up some lobbies!
