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 Makarov is a basic sidearm that gamer.org's July 2026 list places in D-tier with the same limits as the M1911. hXc Hector's figures back that similarity. Since extra rounds help it less than the M1911, we would use the Suppressor here. This applies to the original 2010 game as hXc documents it.
Best Makarov loadout
No major guide publishes a build for this gun, so this is our suggested setup from its available attachments. hXc Hector alone lists it per gun (page timestamp 14 July 2022), and Video Games Blogger's 18 November 2010 guide confirms pistol attachments as a class.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Suppressor | Quiets the gun, removes muzzle flash, keeps you off radar unless a spy plane is up, and shortens range |
Why this build works
hXc gives it 8 rounds per magazine, where Extended Mag only goes to 12: a smaller gain than the M1911's 7 to 14. That makes the Suppressor more tempting. The cost is range, which falls from 8.75-22.5 meters to 6.25-12.5. Since his class advice uses a pistol as a close-up emergency switch, shorter range is easier to accept here than on a primary. He estimates 20-40 damage per bullet at 625 RPM, and a 1.3-1.6 second reload.
How to play it
Switch to it when your primary runs dry, per hXc's pistol advice, and keep the shots close. It suits a class already built around staying off radar.
Unlock notes
Available at level 4 with no purchase price listed. The Suppressor costs C2000, per hXc Hector.
