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. Perks and equipment retain their original dated attribution; the source review does not imply hands-on testing or a fresh balance-patch analysis.
The KSP 45 is a burst SMG in Black Ops Cold War that needs more care than a full-auto gun. Season 5 trimmed it, cutting effective damage range from 25.4m to 22.86m and slowing the burst delay from 0.066 to 0.083. Charlie INTEL's Gunfighter build from 24 September 2021 is built to compensate, and it is our pick despite one confusing magazine entry. It does not cover Season 6.

Source: Charlie INTEL, 24 September 2021 (Season 5). GamesAtlas confirms the attachments below. Charlie INTEL's table names a "45 Rnd Drum", which GamesAtlas does not list, while its text talks about a Fast Mag. We use the Fast Mag, which GamesAtlas does list.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Optic | Visiontech 2x | Covers different engagement distances |
| Muzzle | Muzzle Brake .45 APC | Small vertical recoil improvement |
| Barrel | 10.2" Rifled | Makes the gun deadlier at range |
| Body | Steady Aim Laser | Keeps it deadly up close |
| Underbarrel | Field Agent Grip | Helps vertical and horizontal recoil |
| Magazine | Fast Mag | Quick mag changes |
| Handle | Serpent Wrap | Faster ADS |
| Stock | Wire Stock | Freer movement, less sprint penalty |
| Wildcard | Gunfighter | Raises maximum attachments |
| Perks | Flak Jacket, Assassin, Ghost | Explosive immunity; more points on a Scorestreak; invisible to tracking |
Why this build works
The Rifled barrel addresses the damage range that the Season 5 patch removed, and the 2x optic means you can use what it gives back. The laser then keeps hip-fire useful, so the class does not become a pure mid-range tool. Charlie INTEL's 20 August 2021 roundup ranks it seventh and calls it versatile, adding that it was weak until a Season 2 upgrade.
How to play it
Charlie INTEL's class is designed to cover both ranges, so use the 2x optic for longer fights and the laser when someone reaches you up close. The guide does not state what the gun loses to.
Alternative setups
Five-attachment (Charlie INTEL, 20 August 2021): Visiontech 2x, Muzzle Brake .45 APC, 10.2" Rifled, Field Agent Grip, Serpent Wrap. Charlie INTEL prints the grip as "Field Agent Foregrip"; GamesAtlas lists it as Field Agent Grip.
Unlock notes
Both Charlie INTEL and GamesAtlas put the gun at level 37. Charlie INTEL also says it is available in Warzone.
