The M7 in Delta Force continues to be a solid rifle for mid to long range shooting. Despite previous nerfs, you can still be a beast at shredding down enemies with just a few adjustments. Delta Force allows for extensive weapon customization, so why not build the perfect M7 according to your needs and play style? Let’s look at some builds you can mix and match.
Delta Force M7: Strengths and Weaknesses
While not as powerful as the game’s top-notch rifles, the M7 still packs a serious punch. It’s better than standard assault rifles, and excels in precise shooting. These make it a good choice for those who don’t prefer the spray-and-pray tactic. However, it does have its drawbacks,one of which is its high recoil, especially vertical kick. It’s not the best in its class, but a well-optimized M7 can do wonders in mid-range engagements. So, how would your Delta Force M7 build have to be to ensure top performance?
Delta Force M7 Build Attachments
In choosing attachments for your M7 build, you have to focus on control and straightening the recoil pattern. The suggested attachments we’ll list below can definitely help with that, increasing stability and providing even better precision.
Barrel and Muzzle
For the barrel, the best one would be the M7 Tidal Ultra-Long Barrel Combo. This barrel significantly boosts your damage range and muzzle velocity while improving recoil control. Meanwhile, you should pair it with the Sandstorm Vertical Compensator muzzle which also reduces vertical recoil.
Grip and Stock
For the foregrip, you have two excellent options depending on your playstyle. First is the X25U Angled Combat Grip which increases both vertical and horizontal control, although it sacrifices some handling. The second one is the Secret Order Bevel Foregrip, which significantly reduces horizontal while slightly increasing the vertical recoil. However, paired with our recommended muzzle, that increase in the vertical recoil shouldn’t be too noticeable.
The AR Heavy Tower Grip is our recommended rear grip paired with a Stable Grip Base grip mount for a huge added stability stat. For the stock, you also have two options:
- Elite Light Stock – for improving strafing speed when aiming down sights and reducing recoil
- Shadow Buffer Tube Stock – for improving aim down sight movement speed and control
Note that the Shadow Buffer Tube Stock improves handling a lot but decreases stability, so if you want to offset the handling debuff of the X25U Angled Combat Grip, this is a better choice.
Magazine and Accessories
The base M7 comes with only 20 rounds, which simply isn’t enough for extended firefights. Upgrade to the M7 6.8 30-Round Mag for a balanced approach. If you’re willing to sacrifice more handling for extra firepower, the 45-Round Drum Magazine is another option.
For patches and rails, you can’t go wrong with a combination of DD Python Handguards and Ranger Handguards to boost handling attributes. Consider adding a PEQ-2 Red Laser-Light Combo too for more hip-fire accuracy and tactical stance performance.
For optics, choose based on your personal preference and intended engagement range. A red dot sight works well for general use, but don’t hesitate to experiment with other options.
Calibration Settings
Our recommended Delta Force M7 Build also suggests the following calibration settings to improve handling, precision, and control even more.
- Barrel: Weight Limit +50.00g, Length -10.00mm (improves stability and ADS speed)
- Foregrip: Weight Limit +20.00g (enhances recoil control)
- Rear Grip: Weight Limit +50.00g, Thickness -20mm (for better control)
- Stock: Weight Limit +50.00g (reduces recoil)
These calibrations add approximately 16% extra control and 4% firing stability, making the weapon much more manageable at range.
Conclusion
If you need optimum performance, significantly reduced recoil, and basically an even better M7, don’t be afraid to experiment with your loadout. Adjusting your attachments and calibrations like here in our guide can transform you Delta Force M7 build into a monster at mid and long range fights. You’ll have an M7 that maintains accuracy during sustained fire while still delivering the stopping power battle rifles are known for. While it may take some practice to master, the investment in time will pay off with consistent kills and improved performance on the battlefield.
