- Barrel: FTAC Coldforge 16″ Barrel
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56

Firstly, the Echoless-80 muzzle is useful in providing you with sound suppression, while getting your class off to a strong start with raised damage range, bullet velocity, and recoil smoothness. Equipping this alongside the FTAC Coldforge 16″ barrel which also boosts your damage range and bullet velocity will make the gun more effective at further ranges.
