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 Lewis is the default LMG in Call of Duty: WWII and is meant for holding a good vantage point, with Activision's beta guide calling it high damage but slow-firing. Our verdict is to fix that tempo and sit on a lane. The main build dates from 7 November 2017, before the April 2018 Division overhaul.
Best Lewis loadout
This is AULuftwaffles' build. Gamers Decide's July 2019 list confirms the Extended Mag but otherwise differs.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Reflex Sight | Improves target visibility for long-range kills |
| Attachment | Extended Mag | Fire longer before reloading |
| Attachment | Rapid Fire | Raises fire rate for quicker kills |
| Division | Armored | Bipod at the time, plus protection from lethal and tactical equipment |
| Basic Training | Primed | Extra attachment slot and less flinch when enemies fire back |
| Equipment | Mk 2 fragmentation grenade | For clusters of enemies |
Why this build works
The three attachments suit a set-up gun: a clear picture at distance, more kills per mag, and shorter fights. Primed adds value here because a stationary LMG tends to take return fire, and its flinch reduction helps you finish those exchanges.
Since April 2018, the bipod comes with any LMG, has a higher fire rate while mounted, and draws reserve ammo before the current clip, so a mounted gun avoids normal reloads, according to TheSixthAxis's patch notes.
How to play it
Mount the bipod aimed at a likely approach, then wait. AULuftwaffles says hip-fire accuracy improves and recoil drops while mounted.
Alternative setups
- Gamers Decide (20 July 2019): 4x Optic, Extended Mag, Quickdraw, with Quickdraw listed at level 2.
- Anti-streak (Activision, 11 April 2018, for any LMG): Bipod, Full Metal Jacket, Extended Mag, with Armored and Forage, plus a launcher secondary.
Unlock notes
A March 2023 Steam post calls it the default LMG, available at level 0.
