The FAL Assault Rifle (AR) is a semi-automatic rifle that is very strong in mid to long-range engagements and its fire rate depends on how fast your trigger finger is! It actually sports very low recoil, so if you can unlock a few attachments you can destroy opponents with good aim and a fast trigger finger.
With Season 1 of Warzone Pacific officially underway, there's a slight chance of the FAL re-establishing itself within the ever-changing metagame but with Raven Software making regular changes to the weapon arsenal, it could also be left behind as players opt for other ARs to use.
Here's the best FAL loadout in Modern Warfare and Warzone.
JGOD's Ultimate FAL Warzone Loadout
Warzone content creator JGOD has discovered the very best FAL loadout to be using in Season 4. With the focus on dominating the mid-range and long-distance duels, this particular combination of attachments could well spark a change in the existing metagame.
- Monolithic Suppressor (Muzzle)
- XRK Marksman (Barrel)
- 30 Round Mags (Ammunition)
- VLK 3.0x Optic (Optic)
- Ranger Foregrip (Underbarrel)
This attachment combination is perfect for picking off enemies at a distance and also excels in close-quarters combat.
The combination of suppressor and barrel adds a significant improvement to damage range while the extra ammunition means there is minimal need to reload on a regular basis.

Grenades
- Thermite (Lethal)
- Smoke Grenade (Tactical)
As always it is personal preference when it comes to selecting which piece of lethal equipment to use but when playing the objective, thermite can have a huge impact on enemies that are bunched together on a flag or a headquarters. As always, the smoke can be used to block a line of sight or help you escape a sticky situation.
Field Upgrades
- Trophy System
Perfect for shielding you and your teammates from incoming projectiles when securing an objective.
Killstreaks
- UAV (500 Points)
- Cluster Strike (625 Points)
- VTOL Jet (1000 Points)
These streaks are easily earned thanks to pointman and often score many kills thanks to the ability to guide the VTOL to different areas of the map to get the highest amount of kills possible. The VTOL makes for a very good defence for any objectives that are set in the open.

Never run out of equipment or ammo by using a munitions box to resupply you and your teammates.
Killstreaks
- Cruise Missile (5 Kills)
- VTOL Jet (8 Kills)

Attachments
- 13.0” OSW Para (Barrel)
- No Stock (Stock)
- Stippled Grip Tape (Rear Grip)
