Best Holger 26 loadout and class setup in MW3

It's like a laser.

The beginner-friendly SVA 545 and MCW are the go-to assault rifles in Modern Warfare 3, with the Holger 26 flying under the radar a bit.

The weapon is a variant of the popular Holger 556 assault rifle. This light machine gun is dominating CoD’s battle royale, and with the correct set of attachments, it’s also a viable pick for multiplayer. 

Here’s the best Holger 26 loadout in MW3 Season 4 Reloaded.

The Holger 26 is an LMG that can adapt to most combat scenarios. Like most weapons in its category, it also has an incredible fire rate and impressive accuracy; however, the LMG needs specific attachments to boost its mobility and handling.

Best Holger 26 build in MW3

  • Muzzle: Shadowstrike Suppressor
  • Optic: Mk. 3 Reflector
  • Stock: RB Addle Assault Stock
  • Underbarrel: XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop
  • Magazine: 40 Round Mag

Between the RB Addle Assault Stock and the XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop, you’ll considerably buff your mobility and handling. With these attachments, you’ll be quick on your feet and reposition as required to secure the objectives. 

With the weapon offering an incredible rate of fire, it comes down to how well you can land your shots. We’re running the Mk. 3 Reflector because it’s one of the cleanest Optics available with minimal visual recoil. The Shadowstrike Suppressor will also keep you off the minimap, letting you take advantage of the stealth and eliminate multiple enemies.

By default, the LMG offers 60 rounds, but we swap it for the 40 Round Mag for the significant handling buff. 40 Rounds are enough to engage in a gunfight without continuously reloading.

Best class setup for Holger 26 in Modern Warfare 3

  • Vest: Infantry Vest
  • Handgun: Renetti
  • Tactical: Stun Grenade
  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Field Equipment: Trophy System
  • Gloves: Marksman Gloves
  • Boots: Lightweight Boots
  • Gear: Tac Mask

The Infantry Vest is our kit of choice here to improve mobility with the Holger 26 further, as it increases the Tac Sprint duration and lowers its refresh time. The Renetti is a staple for the close-range engagements in almost all our MW3 loadouts.

The Stun Grenade and Semtex will come in handy when you want to aggress on enemies taking cover. You can swap out the Tac Mask for EOD, but being able to lower the effects of the incoming grenades lets you keep your finger on the trigger.

With this loadout and class setup applied to your Holger 26, you will be able to keep up with the meta assault rifles in both casual and ranked play.
