Source review — 10 November 2026: This is an original-game loadout from the dated guide below. Accessible source pages confirm the listed weapon attachment names.

The Vector CRB has the highest per-shot damage among SMGs in Call of Duty: Ghosts, according to Gameranx, and penetrates like an assault rifle. TheGameHaus calls it the best gun in the game's competitive scene and the most common, though only about two-thirds of the way through the cycle. Our verdict is the pros' Foregrip and Muzzle Brake. This applies to Ghosts multiplayer after the March 2014 update, which improved the Vector's damage over range.
Best Vector CRB loadout
Build from TheGameHaus (19 August 2017). Game Loadouts' top vote (2 votes, undated) has the same pair with a Red Dot Sight added.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Barrel | Muzzle Brake | TheGameHaus: extends its damage range, with the Foregrip |
| Underbarrel | Foregrip | TheGameHaus: extends its damage range, with the Muzzle Brake |
| Perks | Stalker, Focus, ICU, Blast Shield | Gameranx: Stalker suits its mobility; Focus for incoming fire; ICU speeds health recovery; Blast Shield copes with explosives |
The perks come from Gameranx's Vector guide (16 December 2013), not TheGameHaus.
Why this build works
Gameranx's December 2013 stats, which predate the March 2014 buff, list three shots to kill close (two with headshots) and five at longer range (four with headshots), at 759 RPM. Aim time is 200ms, mobility is full, hipfire is good, and the magazine holds 32 rounds (48 with extended magazines) with a 2.53-second reload. TheGameHaus says it usually gets two-bullet kills, which does not match those launch figures. We could not find post-buff numbers to settle it.
How to play it
Gameranx's guide places its strength at mid-range and asks for precise shooting, because the lower fire rate means other full-automatic guns can outclass it. Healing perks help you stay deep in enemy territory.
Alternative setups
Launch build (Gameranx, 16 December 2013): Foregrip and Red Dot Sight. TheGameHaus also says some pros preferred a Red Dot, and calls that a personal choice.
Spray and Pray (Steam community post by MightOfGuts, 21 November 2013): Extended Mags and Foregrip, P226, Semtex and Flashbang, with Ready Up, Stalker, On The Go and Steady Aim.
