While this weapon might not be quite so mobile when initially unlocked, its unique 60 Round Mag attachment and various attachment options can effectively turn the Bruen into an assault rifle. This guide will showcase two builds for the Bruen that make this LMG the perfect long-range weapon or a fun close-range dueling weapon for players who are skilled at managing recoil.

Updated April 7, 2024, by Charles Burgar: The Bruen MK9 has received a powerful aftermarket part with the launch of Season 3. The JAK Shadow Titan Kit turns this weapon into a suppressed LMG that has mobility stats that resemble an assault rifle, making it the perfect weapon for more aggressive playstyles. We've updated this guide to include a build for this new conversion kit, covering everything from ideal attachments to perk combinations.

LMGs rarely have the attachment combinations necessary to make them as snappy as assault rifles, but you can easily make LMGs powerful long-range options with recoil control and firing stability attachments. The Bruen MK9 is no different. This build turns this LMG into an accurate long-range weapon with minimal tradeoffs.

The 60 Round Mag is a must for all Bruen builds, as it halves your reload time and greatly lowers your ADS time with only a minor hit to your magazine capacity. For recoil, the Wrathguard Compensator is excellent since it increases your firing stability while cutting down on the Bruen's diagonal recoil pattern. With the Kimaru RYN-03 Vertical Grip and the 1mw Artemis Laser, this weapon experiences no recoil.

Loadout Recommendations

Perks Vest Demolition Gloves Quick-Grip Gloves Boots Stalker Boots Gear EOD Equipment Secondary Renetti Tactical Stim Lethal Breacher Drone Field Upgrade Trophy System

This loadout allows you to control key locations with a hard-hitting LMG without hurting your close-quarters capabilities. We recommend the Demolition Vest to gain a second Lethal use and the ability to recharge Lethals and Tacticals. Stims will let you instantly heal after a gunfight while Breacher Drones act as a powerful long-range explosive. If you don't like Breacher Drones, use your favorite Lethal in its place.

Your LMG is ill-suited for close-quarters combat, so we'll be using the Renetti with its carbine conversion kit to deal with close targets. Paired with the Quick-Grip Gloves for instant weapon swaps, you should have no issue winning any engagement. Use Stalker Boots to strafe in and out of cover faster, and equip EOD to clamp explosive damage. The Trophy System will also help counter enemy equipment.

This build uses the JAK Shadow Titan Kit to convert the Bruen MK9 into an aggressive stealth LMG, featuring much faster ADS and sprint-to-fire stats. It functions closer to an assault rifle than a proper LMG with this conversion kit. Throw on some mobility attachments, and this weapon will dominate most mid-range gunfights.

We use the STIP-40 Grip and the FTAC SP-10 Angled Grip to keep the recoil as vertical as possible. From there, we use the Tour-56 Stock to buff the weapon's mobility. The final attachment slot has to be either a laser or optic. We use the Nydar Model 2023 optic, but feel free to use any optic you like.

Loadout Recommendations

Perks Vest Assassin Gloves Assault Gloves Boots Covert Sneakers Gear Mag Holster Equipment Secondary Preference Tactical Stim Lethal Throwing Knife

A suppressed weapon should be used with a stealth loadout. The Assassin's Vest will keep you off the radar at all times, even if you aren't moving. This frees up the gear slot for something else, preferably Mag Holster or Tac Mask. We then use Covert Sneakers to muffle our footstep audio and Assault Gloves to remove most midair accuracy penalties.

Your choice of equipment is mostly down to preference. If you play aggressively, run Stims to quickly recover your HP after a gunfight. You might also enjoy Throwing Knives in your Lethal slot. It gives you a one-hit kill melee attack in core Multiplayer.
