To create the best SPR-208 loadout in Modern Warfare 2, our build doubles down on mobility, so you can quickly move around the map and quickscope with ease. We start our loadout with the 12.5″ Carbon Barrel, boosting ADS speed and overall movement speed.

Next, the FSS Ole-V Laser gives a major boost to mobility and aim down sight speed, and pairing it with the ZRL T70 Pad Extension Stock and Aim-Assist 406 further increases its mobility stats.

Lastly, you should go for FSS ST87 Bolt, which makes rechambering between each shot faster, so you’re not a sitting duck between shots.

The SP-R 208 is so dominant because of its high mobility.
