How good is the Submachine gun arm brace + Shotgun mag harness combo on CM13?

I would try this loadout in the game but with how infrequently I play I don’t want to use it and it turns out to be absolutely doodoo, this is my bread and butter on RMC but with how CM13 works I think it wouldn’t be nearly as good and It’d be struggle some to reload.

You can reload it by dragging mag into gun (tacreload)

but ya accuracy and spread on one handed weapons just make it impossible to use. Spread being the variation on where it fires, accuracy being a rng miss chance, both of which smg arm brace have terrible stats in. It kinda sacrifices the role of smg as a high dps cqc weapon and makes it significantly worse then every other gun in existence

Any gun can tack-reload. IMO arm brace sucks, but I will use it for meme-ing killing some dumb t3s with it.

if you want to one-hand, get an m4a3 (/w hollowpoints for T1’s) or mod88 (for T2+) instead of an m39
put laser-sight & s5 sight on it, ext. barrel if you can snag one and it will be light-years better than trying to one-hand an m39

Totally unviable, try M4A3 instead. Or a VP78 with RC, for CQC shenanigans

I’d like to agree with everyone else: arm brace sucks. Worst attachment in the game in my opinion.

Reminds me of the TF2 school of weapon balance, if you give a new weapon some small advantage over the stock version, you have to saddle it with so many drawbacks it becomes too bad to use.

This guy made 3 kills while actively being hunted by backliners, all with a laser sight & an arm brace on his M39

It’s the power of NVGs and no armor slowdown. You would do just as well with an M41a or a normal M39 in this situation.

Also shows how far back liners have fallen smh.
