Best Modern Warfare 2 Tempus Torrent loadout attachments

  • Muzzle: SA Leveler 55
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Guard: Torrent Tac Guard
  • Rear Grip: Sakin ZX Grip
  • Magazine: 30 Round Mag

We begin our best Tempus Torrent loadout for Modern Warfare 2 with the SA Leveler 55, keeping the Marksman Rifle’s horizontal and vertical recoil in check so you can land your follow-up shots with ease.

Next is the FSS OLE-V Laser and Torrent Tac Guard, which both drastically improve the ADS speed to ensure you can land that crucial first shot. You’ll likely be facing enemies with faster-firing SMGs or Assault Rifles, so being quick on the draw is vital at close to mid-range.

Then, we’ve gone for the Sakin ZX Grip for another buff to recoil control, keeping the Tempus laser accurate in every fight.

Finally, we added the 30 Round Mag to allow you to deal with more enemies before reloading. However, this could easily be swapped for an Optic if you’re not a fan of the weapon’s iron sights.
