The XM4 Assault Rifle (AR) is the successor to the Commando which featured in the very first Black Ops game which was released in 2010. 

The XM4 has proven a hit amongst players thanks to its sheer versatility and near-limitless customization options to suit all styles of play.

After several hours of experimenting with all available attachments, the ones listed above are certainly the best to use. Depending on your style of play, customize the XM4 to suit how you play your game. 

XM4 Recommended Loadout

  • Muzzle: Infantry Compensator
  • Barrel: 13.7" Takedown
  • Underbarrel: Infiltrator Grip
  • Magazine: Jungle-style Mag

Ever since level 1 I’ve been killing it and I’ve been ranked finally and got a 2.43 kd and I’m proud it took me years to get a hold of how cod works and now I just stay s&d only. Personally I feel they should give the gun more recoil but give it more damage. It feels like an actual peashooter. I read some of the good things about XM4 load out from this site www.downsights.com
