Best SA-B 50 Loadout in Modern Warfare 2

The quickscoper's dream.

There are a couple of rifles in Modern Warfare 2 that have taken over as favorites for quick scopers, and it’s clear that the SA-B 50 is currently one of the best picks in the game. Like the SP-R 208, this weapon has some insane ADS speed and enough damage for consistent one-shot kills.

Unlike the SP-R though, the SA-B 50 isn’t typically used with an iron sight or a canted laser. This is truly the best weapon for fast-paced sniper rifle gameplay for those that want a scope. This guide will cover all of the attachments you need for the best SA-B loadout in MW2.

Modern Warfare 2 – Best SA-B 50 Loadout

Nearly every piece of this build will be focused on mobility. That includes stats such as ADS speed, sprint-to-fire, and aim-walking-movement. The goal is to make the weapon as snappy as possible. Below you’ll find all of the attachments you need for the rifle.

  • Receiver: SA-B 50
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Stock: XRK Specter Mod
  • Rear Grip: Schlager Match Grip
  • Magazine: 5 Round Mag
  • Optic: HMW-20 Optic

Many of the slots in this loadout aren’t conventional, and that’s due to the desire for far more ADS speed. To kick that off, we want to equip the XRK Specter Mod stock and the Schlager Match Grip. These are some of the main sources of mobility hikes that we need.

Next are the FSS OLE-V Laser and the 5 Round Mag. Not only do both of these also contribute tons of mobility, but the negatives are almost non-existent. In the mag, there is slightly less ammo and for the laser, the beam is visible in ADS. But in terms of stats, nearly nothing is lost.

The optic is the last slot and for this SA-B 50 build in Modern Warfare 2, we use the HMW-20 Optic. You can always throw on a different scope, a dot sight, or irons. But the scope is the best for that classic sniper feel.
