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 MP-40 is Airborne's prestige SMG in Call of Duty: WWII, and both GamingBolt and AULuftwaffles named it the best SMG in November 2017. Our verdict is that it is the most rewarding all-rounder of the launch SMGs if you are willing to prestige for it. The main build dates from January 2018, before the April 2018 Division overhaul.
Best MP-40 loadout
This is KeenGamer's build from 4 January 2018, single-source as a set, though Grip and Extended Mag are ordinary SMG attachments on GameRevolution's list.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Rapid Fire | GameRevolution's SMG table: Fire Rate +3 |
| Attachment | Grip | GameRevolution's SMG table: Accuracy +3, less recoil while aiming |
| Attachment | Extended Mag | GameRevolution's SMG table: larger magazine |
| Basic Training | Primed | MP1st: reduces flinch and allows one extra primary attachment |
Why this build works
GameRevolution lists damage 6, range 6, accuracy 5, fire rate 8 and a 32/96 magazine, and it says the gun can become a close-range powerhouse with fire rate and damage. Accuracy is its lowest stat, so Grip gives the most obvious return. MP1st compares it with the Grease Gun, adding that its fire rate is better and its recoil more erratic.
How to play it
KeenGamer rates it as a flanking gun that seldom needs aiming down sights, and strong in close-quarters objectives, while weaker at long range than the PPSh-41. AULuftwaffles argues that it can trade with rifles at medium range when aimed. KeenGamer recommends adding a Suppressor in War mode.
Alternative setups
AULuftwaffles (5 November 2017): Lens Sight, Quickdraw, with Airborne, Lookout and a Mk 2 fragmentation grenade for tight areas. Lens Sight supports medium-range fights against rifles.
Unlock notes
Prestige the Airborne Division once. GameRevolution and MP1st both confirm this.
