LAPA is the latest and final Cold War SMG added to Call of Duty Warzone. Submachine Gun Lima was launched with 'The Haunting' Halloween Event of Season 6. It has good range, control, and accuracy but a slow fire rate.
Here's a guide on how to build the best LAPA SMG loadout and class setup in Warzone. We have featured two different loadouts based on different scenarios and usage — Mobility build & Hipfire build.
Best LAPA Loadout Warzone for Mobility
The best LAPA attachments in Warzone are:
- Muzzle - Agency Suppressor
- Barrel - 7.9" Rifled
- Laser - Tiger Team Spotlight
- Stock - SAS Combat Stock
- Magazine - 40 Rnd
This LAPA build focuses on maximizing movement speed while keeping the aim-down sight (ADS) speed least affected. You can get the best pair it with a long-range AR or LMG of choice. Some players may not like the iron sights, so they can swap the laser for a close-range optic.
The most complicated attachment is the barrel because of the numerous options. We recommend you select the best barrels from — 7.9" Rifled and 7.9" BR Compact.
Moreover, we suggest using the Rifled barrel to have a more reliable time to kill (TTK). However, you can also skip the barrel attachment altogether. Here's a table comparing the stats of the best three barrels for you to comprehend.
Statistic | Rifled Barrel | Compact Barrel | Reinforced Barrel |
1st Damage Range | 8 meters | 8 meters | 11 meters |
Head TTK | 336 ms | 369 ms | 420 ms |
Neck TTK | 420 ms | 462 ms | 420 ms |
Chest TTK | 587 ms | 554 ms | 587 ms |
Stomach TTK | 587 ms | 646 ms | 671 ms |
Limbs TTK | 671 ms | 738 ms | 671 ms |
For a LAPA sniper support class, the 12.4" M03 Reinforced barrel would be the best option. It has a better damage range and maintains a consistent TTK.

Best LAPA HIPFIRE Loadout Warzone
- Muzzle - Agency Suppressor
- Barrel - 7.9" Rifled
- Laser - SWAT 5mW Laser Sight
- Underbarrel - Bruiser Grip
- Magazine - STANAG 50 Rnd
There is a larger magazine for an extra 10 rounds of ammunition, but the ADS speed is reduced slightly. The 5mW Laser and Bruiser Grip improve the hipfire accuracy of the SMG.
Best LAPA Class Setup Warzone
- Primary Weapon - FARA 83 / GRAV / Swiss K31 (sniper)
- Secondary Weapon - LAPA
- Lethal - Throwing Knife
- Tactical - Heartbeat Sensor
- Perk 1 - Cold Blooded
- Perk 2 - Overkill / Ghost
- Perk 3 - Amped
Although Warzone has several fast TTK SMGs in the game, LAPA is a powerful weapon introduction that requires considerable skill to operate. That's because it's less forgiving due to the comparatively slower rate of fire.
