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 ARX-160 fires at 857 RPM in Call of Duty: Ghosts, one of the highest rates in the game, and has poor range for an assault rifle. Our verdict is to treat it as a hybrid SMG with a Muzzle Brake and Foregrip. This applies to launch-era Ghosts multiplayer.
Best ARX-160 loadout
Build from Gameranx's ARX-160 guide (11 January 2014), the only source publishing this pair. Game Loadouts confirms both attachments exist on the gun.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Barrel | Muzzle Brake | Gameranx: increases possible range |
| Underbarrel | Foregrip | Gameranx: reduces recoil, helping at medium range |
| Perks | Stalker, Agility, Focus | Gameranx: Stalker for mobility and target acquisition; Agility to close the gap with SMGs; Focus for an edge |
Why this build works
Gameranx lists three shots to kill up close (two with a headshot) and six at medium range (four with a headshot). Hipfire is above average for the class, recoil is moderate and mobility is high, while the 300ms aim time is par. The magazine holds 30 rounds (45 with Extended Mags) with a 2.87-second reload. Gameranx's stats guide also notes an integrated laser sight, and that the first seven shots have less recoil.
How to play it
Prioritise movement, fire short bursts to control recoil and look for close-quarters fights. ICU is Gameranx's resistance pick for faster recovery. The attachments help it compete with SMGs, but the guide says range remains its weakness.
