Call of Duty: Mobile A Detailed Guide to M4 LMG

2021-08-25

Light machine guns are the most underrated weapons in the game. It is because they weigh so much. Because of that, it costs the players their mobility, which is the most important thing because they constantly need to run around and move in inconsistent patterns to avoid the bullets coming from the enemy. It also has a low fir rate which is bad considering the low mobility of the gun. M4 LMG is one of the guns that are mostly ignored in any gameplay because of these things. 

 

However, M4 LMG is not just another LMG gun. This gun is among the guns in its class that provide greater damage with little recoil. It is a fully automatic gun with 100 rounds in its magazine. These can also be increased with proper loadout. This gun can be unlocked at level 9. The reload speed is very poor, that is 3.9 seconds. However, this can be increased by changing mag attachments from the loadout. It is a tier B gun with controls that are a little hard to control. 

 

Before you select any weapon, we recommend you dig deep into the pool of knowledge and read out the available guide like weapon comparison guides and gunsmith loadouts so that they may help you not just choose a weapon but also keep you ahead of every opponent.

 

COD-M Intro

 

Battlefield Performance:

 

Because of its low mobility and moderate fire rate, this gun is not liked by players in Battle Royale mode. But because of the stability and high bullet spread it provides, this gun can be used effectively for long-range kills. It is not very good for the short-range and is usually not recommended. 

 

In multiplayer mode, this weapon is a beast for long-range kills. Since it provides very little recoil pattern, the accuracy of this gun is very good. It is also not recommended for close range in multiplayer mode, but with a few attachments from the gunsmith, this weapon can become a deadly beast in the hands of an experienced player.

Gunsmith Loadout:

 

The M4 LMG is a pretty good gun as compared to the other guns of the same class. With the proper loadout, this gun can still be useful on the battlefield and decimate enemies with amazing damage and recoil stability. Since the gun is tier B, it needs a good strategic loadout that will enhance this gun's performance to the rooftop. Following are the best attachments for this gun that are tried and tested to compensate for the gun's lack of mobility, among other things, and make this gun a whole lot better.

 

Muzzle:

 

Muzzle for this gun does not give the added advantage as compared to the other attachments. This attachment is not recommended since this gun is a killing machine with more damage and speed. However, if you still want to go with the muzzle, the best option is a Monolithic Suppressor. This attachment will give you sound suppression and also increase the damage range of the weapon. Since most players don't care for the sound suppression, except those who play the game like a ninja, this attachment is not recommended. It will also increase the accuracy of the gun.

 

Barrel:

 

This attachment is strongly recommended for long-ranged weapons. The best possible barrel attachment is MIP Stock Barrel. This will increase the player's movement speed and ADS speed. Since speed is the main issue with this gun, it is highly recommended that you attach it. However, the downside of this attachment is that it will increase the vertical recoil control of the gun. But this is nothing as compared to the advantages the player gains from this attachment.

Optic:

 

The optic scope for this gun is also not recommended. Since the gun already has a long-range, so it is best if this attachment is left unattached. Players can add red dot sight or holographic sight to kill the targets easily, but laser is more recommended for this gun than the optic regarding accuracy.

 

Stock:

 

Stock usually provides structural support to the gun. But for M4 LMG, the best thing is not to add any stock. Removing the stock will give you a tremendous amount of speed that will help you move like a fox in the game. Removing the stock will also decrease the accuracy, but as you get along with the gun, this should be no problem. 

 

However, if the players do not want this attachment left unattended, the best option is to use RTC steady stock. This will increase the gun's stability, and bullet spread accuracy while decreasing ADS and ADS movement speeds. But, as explained, this is not the type of thing we want to with.

 

Laser:

 

The best option to go with this is OWC Laser-Tactical. This attachment provides the increase in ADS speed, and ADS bullet spread accuracy. And the best part is that there is no downside to this attachment. It is best to use laser instead of scope for the best performance of the gun. But if the player is new and still faces difficulty pinning down enemies, he can go with the optic.

 

Rear grip:

 

This attachment is also something that may not be necessary for the overall performance of this gun. The best option is to go with Granulated Grip Tape. This will increase the ADS bullet spread recovery while decreasing the ADS movement speed.

 

Underbarrel:

 

Here the best option is Tactical Foregrip A. This attachment has both ups and downs. The advantage of using this attachment is it increases the accuracy of the gun and also increases stability. The downside of this attachment is that it causes a reduction in the movement speed. We know players want more movement speed, but we would not have mentioned this attachment if the advantages were not worth it.

 

Ammunition:

 

Since the M4 LMG have a high capacity of rounds already in the gun, players usually swap it with 30 Round Light Reload. Yes, it will reduce the magazine capacity, but this will also increase movement speed with fast reloading. It may also cause some stability, but it is worth it.

 

Perks:

 

Perks provide a different option that improves the overall gameplay and helps in different aspects of playing. Following are the recommended perks for M4 LMG.

 

  • Among red perks, choose Agile because it will reduce the sprint to fire time by 85 percent.

 

  • Among green perks, choose Quick fix because it will help regenerate health immediately after killing.

 

  • Among blue perks, choose dead silence because it will reduce the movement sound to help in the silent killing of enemies.

 

  • These attachments will increase the movement speed and increase the reload speed of the gun, while they may slightly reduce the accuracy and range. These attachments may also make the gun untrustworthy at close ranges.
