AS VAL is part of Warzone’s Legacy weapon pool. In current Warzone, choose its provided preset or an available Blueprint from the Legacy tab. You cannot recreate an old custom Gunsmith setup for it.
Best AS VAL loadout in current Warzone
Use the Legacy preset supplied in game. The official Season 1 notes say Legacy weapons are already configured for Warzone and cannot be edited in Gunsmith. There is no verified evidence here that a particular paid Blueprint is stronger, so we do not recommend buying one for a presumed advantage.
How to equip it
- Open Create-a-Class and choose a primary or secondary weapon slot.
- Open the Legacy tab.
- Choose AS VAL and equip its available preset or Blueprint.
- If it is locked, check its XP requirement in Armory Unlocks.
What changed
With the November 2026 Season 1 integration, weapons from Modern Warfare II through Black Ops 7 remain available as Legacy weapons. They do not support editable attachments, Modern Warfare 4 mastery camos, reticle challenges, cosmetic Gunsmithing or build sharing.
A multiplayer setup for this weapon belongs to its original game. Do not use an old Warzone attachment guide as an editable current-season build.

Checked: 10 November 2026. Applies to the fixed Legacy weapon system in current Warzone; this is not a claim that the weapon is the strongest choice.
Historical build archive — before 6 November 2026
The original guide below was researched on 30 October 2026. Its attachment choices, rankings, share codes and statistics are historical reference only. They do not describe the fixed preset supplied in current Warzone, and the old custom setup cannot be recreated through its current Gunsmith.
Built as Sniper Support, this AS VAL fires at 896 RPM and aims in 244ms. It comes from Black Ops 6 and, for Warzone Season 6, it is off-meta: CODMunity rates its Sniper Support role Below Average and WZStats has it 32 in Long Range at Tier B. It is fine close up with a sniper, yet the VOYAK KT-3, MK35 ISR and DS20 MIRAGE are the listed alternatives.
Best AS VAL loadout
This is CODMunity's Sniper Support build, and warzoneloadout.games lists the same five picks. CODMunity last updated it on 2025-12-04, before the 14 October 2026 patch.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Barrel | Supressed Gain-Twist Barrel | +50% bullet velocity |
| Fire Mods | Recoil Springs | -29% gun kick, -20% horizontal recoil, -30% vertical recoil |
| Magazine | Extended Mag II | +20 magazine size, +11% ADS time, +17% sprint-to-fire time, +54% reload time |
| Stock | Balanced Stock | +10% movement, +16% crouch movement, +9% ADS movement |
| Underbarrel | Vertical Foregrip | -2% gun kick, -40% horizontal recoil |
| Perks | Scavenger, Sprinter, Adaptive | WZStats: Downed enemies drop ammo, equipment and plates; Lets you reload during tactical sprint and eases movement penalties; Better explosive defense, movement and handling |
| Equipment | Heartbeat sensor, Frag | WZStats: Limited-use tablet that shows rough enemy positions nearby; Cookable grenade |
| Secondary | VMP | WZStats' top pairing; next are MPC-25 and REV-46 |
Why this build works
Close fights are where the numbers look best: 670ms at 0-10m and 687ms at 10-40m, against 848ms and 901ms beyond. Recoil Springs lower gun kick by 29%, horizontal recoil by 20% and vertical recoil by 30%, and Vertical Foregrip removes another 40% of horizontal recoil. Balanced Stock adds 10% movement, 16% crouch movement and 9% ADS movement. Supressed Gain-Twist Barrel adds 50% velocity, for 1245m/s. Extended Mag II gets the gun to 50 rounds but adds 54% reload time, 11% ADS time and 17% sprint-to-fire time, with a 2875ms reload as the result. The last change, on 8/6/2025, raised Max Damage Range from 38.1m to 43.2m and bullet velocity from 860m/s to 890m/s.
How to play it
Move with the extra speed and take your fights inside 43.2m, where the gun holds its best damage range. WZStats warns that ammo depletes fast, so a 50-round magazine at 896 RPM calls for short engagements and early reloads behind cover. It also lists high recoil at long range, which makes distant targets a job for your sniper. That sniper is the partner this build assumes; WZStats' own pairing list names VMP, MPC-25 and REV-46 if you prefer a different second slot.
Alternative setups
Recommended, Battle Royale (WZStats): Suppressed Reinforced Barrel, Vertical Foregrip, Extended Mag III, CQB Grip, Recoil Springs.
Unlock notes
The sources list these requirements for the main build: Supressed Gain-Twist Barrel: Level 19; Recoil Springs: Level 18; Extended Mag II: Level 22; Balanced Stock: Level 28; Vertical Foregrip: Level 8.
