To make the SVA 545 viable for the open spaces of battle royale, and even the hectic firefights of Resurgence, we need to reduce the recoil and push that effective range as much as possible. The VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor and STV Precision Barrel do both of these things, with the suppressor also keeping your shots off the minimap. The Bruen Heavy Support Grip tightens up that horizontal recoil, meaning you’ll only have to contend with the up/down motion of the SVA while firing.
A deep clip is essential if you’re taking on multiple opponents, which is where the 60 Round Mag comes in. The iron sights on the SVA are clean, meaning we can avoid an optic – we opted to take advantage of that extra attachment slot by adding the Demo 650 Grip, which reduces gun kick and recoil.

Muzzle: HMRES Mod Suppressor Stock: FT TAC-Elite Stock Ammunition: 5.45 High Grain Rear Grip: Demo 650 Grip Magazine: 45 Round Mag
The SVA 545 has an interesting feature whereby it fires the first two rounds almost instantaneously when you pull the trigger, which can be devastating to your opponents if you’re accurate. Due to this burst/full-auto hybrid, we don’t have to concentrate on recoil control as much as normal, opting for attachments like the HMRES Mod Suppressor and the High Grain ammunition for that extra range.
We do have the FT TAC-Elite Stock and the Demo 650 Grip in place to ensure that the gun kick isn’t too ferocious, but ultimately the play here is to ensure you hit those first few shots, with the gun rewarding accuracy with that instant burst damage.
Adding the 45 Round Mag is down to personal preference, as you do sacrifice some ADS speed for the extra rounds, but since the SVA 545 isn’t the most mobile of MW3 assault rifles, we prefer not to have to reload as much during a gunfight.
Best SVA 545 perks and equipment
Here are the best perks and equipment for the SVA 545:
Lethal: Frag Grenade Tactical: Flash Grenade Field Upgrade: Munitions Box Vest: Engineer Vest Gloves: Quick-Grip Gloves Boots: Stalker Boots Gear: EOD Padding, Bone Conduction Headset
While you won’t be the fastest operator on the battlefield with the SVA 545, you can get the drop on your enemies with the Bone Conduction headset, as you’ll be able to hear them coming with much more clarity.
The Stalker Boots enable you to strafe faster while aiming down sights with your weapon – moving laterally when in a gunfight makes you harder to hit. Utilize this while in a firefight to stay as healthy as possible, and if your foe gets too close for comfort, make use of the Quick-Grip Gloves to swap to your secondary and finish the job.
The EOD Padding reduces the effects of your enemy’s grenades, so you’re at much less risk when pushing an enclosed space – although we would always recommend clearing these spaces with your own Flash and Frag grenades first.
