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 Maddox RFB is an assault rifle that plays like an SMG, and that is why it was among the most recommended guns in Black Ops 4. Charlie INTEL ranks it 3rd of 28. Run double Quickdraw with Stock and treat it as your close-to-medium gun. This applies to Black Ops 4 multiplayer in guides from 2018-2019, with a caveat: Dexerto says a later update nerfed its recoil, and that Treyarch then reversed the nerf.

The core of Quickdraw I, Quickdraw II and Stock appears in GamePro (6 November 2018), MeinMMO (9 November 2018) and Charlie INTEL's competitive guide (page stamped 28 December 2020). The Fast Mags pick and wildcards are GamePro's.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Quickdraw I | Faster aim down sights |
| Attachment | Quickdraw II | Near-SMG aiming speed with both tiers, per Charlie INTEL |
| Attachment | Stock | Faster strafing while aiming |
| Attachment | Fast Mags | Offsets the slow reload |
| Wildcards | Primary Gunfighter I and II | GamePro's listed wildcards |
| Perk 2 | Gung-Ho | GamePro's pick |
| Perk 3 | Dead Silence | Quieter movement |
Why this build works
Charlie INTEL explains the key trick: Black Ops 4 briefly keeps hipfire movement speed after you aim, so tapping aim while strafing makes you harder to hit. Stock and double Quickdraw are built around that behaviour. MP1st adds that the gun is best at short to medium range.
How to play it
Fight inside medium range, slide around corners and keep tapping aim during strafes. Charlie INTEL's League Play guide says it can hold up against most SMGs and is at its best at medium range. Skip Echo Fire: MP1st says it burns ammo, adds recoil and costs a wildcard, and Dexerto France agrees on the recoil.
Alternative setups
- Respawn (Charlie INTEL): double Quickdraw and Stock with Tactical Mask, Dexterity, a Concussion and Stim Shot. For Search and Destroy, it swaps the Concussion for Dead Silence.
- Extended Mags (MeinMMO, 9 November 2018): Stock, Quickdraw I and II, Extended Mags, with Gung-Ho, Dead Silence and Scavenger.
- Scump (Dexerto France, 29 October 2018): Grip I, Grip II, Stock, with Dexterity and a Stim Shot. Dexerto's February 2019 article shows his later class only in an image, so it could not be read.
- Echo Fire (Gamersdecide, 25 January 2019): ELO, Quickdraw II, Echo Fire, Primary Operator Mod, Lightweight, Tracker, Stim Shot. It directly contradicts the MP1st advice above, so opinion is split.
Unlock notes
MP1st and GamePro list the Maddox RFB as unlocking at level 49.
