What is the best Modern Warfare 3 MTZ Interceptor loadout?

  • Field Equipment: Trophy System
  • Grenades: Semtex / Flash Grenade

This particular build provides a few small, but noticeable, increases to the MTZ Interceptor's damage, range, and recoil control, transforming it into a semi-automatic beast capable of scoring kills with a single bullet.

Despite reductions in mobility and accuracy, they're minimal changes that make no difference when attempting to defeat a sniper from the other side of the map

Best Modern Warfare 3 MTZ Interceptor attachments

The gunsmith contains all kinds of attachments that can transform any weapon to suit all kinds of playstyles. Having tested a range of combinations, we've settled on this set of five that is immensely powerful:

  • Barrel: MTZ Clinch Pro Barrel
  • Optic: QTG Reflex Sight
  • Stock: Bruen Archangel MK2
  • Magazine: 20 Round Mag
  • Rear Grip: Bruen TR-24 Assault Grip

Up first is the MTZ Clinch Pro Barrel which delivers the only increase in damage and some additional stability when firing the MTZ Interceptor for prolonged periods of time. Next is the QTG Reflex Sight for a crystal-clear view of the action.

The Bruen Archangel MK2 stock enhances aim-down sight speed resulting in better reaction times. Alongside the stock is the Bruen TR-24 Assault Grip, providing even more stability and recoil control.

Lastly, the 20 Round Mag doubles magazine capacity, allowing you to eliminate multiple opponents without the need to reload.

Best Modern Warfare 3 MTZ Interceptor class

Once the best MTZ Interceptor attachments are ready for battle, the choice of perks and equipment can determine the success of the battle rifle across several game modes. Here are our recommendations.

Perks

  • Vest: Infantry
  • Gloves: Commando
  • Boots: Stalker
  • Gear: EOD Padding

The Infantry vest improves the length of Tactical Sprint which is perfect for covering as much area as quickly as possible. Commando gloves allow you to reload while sprinting and pairing them with Stalker boots provides plenty of mobility.

For extra protection against any incoming grenades, EOD Padding makes all the difference and keeps you alive in congested areas of the map.

Equipment

  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Tactical: Flash Grenade

The sticky nature of Semtex makes it very easy to score additional kills alongside the MTZ Interceptor. The flash grenade is just as useful. Throw it onto an objective to disrupt the vision of the opposition or chuck it near a door to open it and reveal what's on the other side.

Is the Modern Warfare 3 MTZ Interceptor meta?

Although the chances of it slotting into the Modern Warfare 3 meta are slim, the MTZ Interceptor is an excellent weapon to use in multiplayer. The immensely powerful damage output along with a controllable fire rate makes it very easy to top the scoreboard.
