The 3 best submachine guns with setup – Meta in December 2023

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 launched not only with its story mode, but also with its highly anticipated multiplayer mode. We’ll show you the 3 best submachine guns in Season 1 with setup.

How do we arrive at our assessment? The basic assessment comes from our own experts here on MeinMMO as well as CoD specialists on YouTube and from warzoneloadouts. We then tested these assessments in dozens of matches and finally came up with the three top submachine guns.

In addition, we refine our selection with our years of CoD expertise and also look at player trends. In addition, we also look at the playability of the weapons and whether they are easy to wield.
