Best Warzone 2 TAQ-V attachments

The Warzone 2 gunsmith comes with a wealth of attachments which makes it tricky to find a set of five that are capable of contending with a fully-equipped RPK. After a bit of testing, we've settled on a combination that shreds through armour and sends enemies to the gulag in a handful of bullets.
