Best M87A1 loadout attachments

The M87A1 is the strongest close-range weapon in Battlefield 6, capable of one-shot body kills from a surprisingly forgiving range. We’ve put together this loadout to help you dominate in tight spaces:

• Top Accessory: 5 MW Green
• Optic Accessory: Iron Sights
• Barrel: 20″ Factory
• Underbarrel: Ribbed Stubby
• Muzzle: CQB Suppressor
• Magazine: 7 Shell Tube
• Ammunition: Buckshot

This setup is all about maximizing the M87A1’s raw killing potential in close quarters. The CQB Suppressor helps you stay off enemy radar while keeping tight pellet spreads, and the Ribbed Stubby grip ensures you can quickly line up follow-up shots if needed. The 20″ Factory Barrel extends your effective range slightly, making two-shot kills more reliable at close-medium distances.

If you want sheer stopping power, this is as good as it gets.
