Best M4 Loadout in Modern Warfare 4 for Higher Damage and Better Accuracy

The M4 unlocks early and is one of the most reliable assault rifles in Modern Warfare 4. With the right attachments, the weapon performs even better.

The build below boosts damage, range, magazine capacity, and accuracy while keeping handling manageable. It works especially well on standard 6v6 maps.

Quick summary

• The M4 is the second assault rifle in the game and is fairly easy to unlock.
• Its main strengths are higher damage and better accuracy.
• Use cover, pre-aim angles, burst-fire at long range, and reposition after kills while using the M4.

The FSS IS300 gives the rifle a suppressed profile while remaining effective at range. The FSS Fireline Grip improves recoil control, especially when aiming down sights, making it much easier to spray down enemies at longer ranges.

The ZLR Phase Grip trades control and composure for raw handling speed by improving ADS Speed and Sprint to Fire Speed.

Best M4 class setup in MW4

• Secondary: Krait P68
• Melee: FSS Carbon Edge 1095
• Tactical: Flash Grenade
• Lethal: Semtex
• Field Upgrade: Seeker Drone
• Perk 1: Ghost
• Perk 2: Fast Hands
• Perk 3: Battle Hardened

Flash Grenade and Semtex pair well with the M4 because they let you initiate fights. Throw one before pushing, then clear multiple targets. A Seeker Drone is especially useful with this build because it seeks out nearby enemies and marks them, briefly revealing their location to teammates as well.

For Perks, go with Ghost, Fast Hands, and Battle Hardened. Quick Fix helps you stay undetected by enemy callouts, UAVs, radars, and heartbeat sensors, which can be useful if you want to sneak from behind. Fast Hands allows you to switch between weapons and equipment a lot faster, and Battle Hardened reduces the effect of enemy tacticals.

You can choose any Killstreaks you want, but my personal preference is UAV at 5 kills, Artillery Beacon at 7 kills, and Attack Helicopter at 11 kills.
