Saug
Season 1 blessed us with another banger, this time it’s an SMG in the form of the cute Saug. Don’t let its size fool you, this mini monster is capable of tearing several people to shreds in no time at all. Our Saug loadout features a lightning fast fire rate to blaze through each magazine, and we’ve made sure to keep it as light as possible so you can run through maps feeling light as a feather.

AEK-973
A burst-fire baller packing plenty of power, the AEK-973 is a marksman rifle that definitely doesn’t miss the mark. The Season 1 update heavily nerfed the Rapid Fire attachment, so you’ll need to be more accurate than before, as you won’t be able to land a second burst every time. With our best AEK-973 loadout in tow, you’ll be able to reliably dispatch your enemies with a single burst up to the 40m mark – just Long Barrel things. As the AEK-973 is so prolific, we’ve slapped on the Gunfighter Wildcard to maximize the number of attachments we can deck it out with.

Model L
The Model L is an incredibly reliable option in the assault rifle category that combines pinpoint accuracy with slightly more damage than, say, the XM4. Our best Model L loadout utilizes the Gunfighter Wildcard to lock down that gun kick completely; couple that with the extended mag and attachments to keep the ADS snappy, and you’ve got a true force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

AS Val
Only unlocked once you’ve hit level 55, the AS Val is likely the last thing you’ll get your hands on, but the wait is worth it. Our best Black Ops 6 AS Val loadout combines a blistering rate of fire with unmatched control. Close-quarters combat and the mid-range will be your playground if you kit this assault rifle out correctly.

A short-range SMG with immense power, the KSV best suits those who like to stay mobile. Mid-range fights can be a bit of a struggle, but with our best Black Ops 6 KSV loadout, even those can be achievable if you’re in a pinch. With the DM-10 as your secondary, you won’t have to shy away from any fight.

The Gunfighter Wildcard allows us to extend the range and reduce the recoil of the AK-74 while also maintaining a quick ADS time. Pair this with the Stryder .22 for when things get a little too close for comfort.

C9
The C9 is a jack-of-all-trades, master of all when it comes to SMGs. Well-balanced, decent fire rate, and a solid TTK, you really can’t go wrong with the Black Ops 6 iteration of the classic MP5.
To get the most out of the C9 we’ve gone for the Gunfighter Wildcard which increases the number of attachments you can stick to it. Taking full advantage of this, our best Black Ops 6 C9 loadout is decked to the (C) nines with goodies that improve it at every level. The perk trinity of Gung-Ho, Assassin, and Double Time grants access to the Enforcer Specialty, which maximizes your run-n-gun potential – the go-to playstyle for SMG enjoyers.

AMES 85
The AMES 85 is an assault rifle with low recoil and immense stopping power. You can completely dominate mid-range firefights with this in your hands, opting for a basic optic, or a medium scope if you prefer to pick your opponents off from a distance.
We opt to go with the Overkill Wildcard for our best AMES 85 loadout, bringing the Marine SP with us for when things get up close and personal. The Ghost, Engineer, and Vigilance perks will help you rack up killstreaks, keeping your enemies pinned down while you pick them off.

Jackal PDW
Not only is the Jackal PDW one of the best SMGs in Black Ops 6, it might take the crown of overall best weapon. With these attachments, you’ll have a gun that feels light and snappy, maintains a high level of mobility, and hits like a truck.
Using our best Black Ops 6 Jackal PDW loadout, you’re going to be doing a lot of killing with this weapon, which is why we’ve gone for a full set of Enforcer perks. Assassin provides a score bonus whenever we take down enemies on a kill streak. We’ve also picked Gung-Ho to make this loadout as agile as possible by removing movement penalties, and Double Time to speed up our tactical sprint. This unlocks the Enforcer perk which triggers a temporary buff to movement speed and health regeneration.

XM4
Being the default assault rifle doesn’t hold the XM4 back, in fact, it can be one of the most devastating tools at your disposal if outfitted with the right attachments. The mid-range is where this AR shines – pinpoint accuracy and holding your angles are the keys to success with the best Black Ops 6 XM4 loadout.
Our perks aim to stay off the enemy’s minimap and generate as many scorestreaks as possible. Ghost will make it difficult for your enemies to pinpoint your location, and Engineer will allow you to spot any nasty surprises before they quite literally blow up in your face.

LR 7.62
Sniping is one of life’s great joys (in-game), and Black Ops 6 offers up the perfect tool for the job in the LR 7.62. This bolt-action rifle will one-shot if you hit the upper body, and our best Black Ops 6 LR 7.62 loadout turns it into a stable source of point-based income as you explode heads across the map.
It’s hard to imagine a sniper build without Overkill – that’s why we haven’t gone for one. The time-honored Wildcard is being put to good use when paired with the powerful C9 SMG. As for the sniper’s perks, we’ve opted for a trio of blue perks that help keep you safe and sound while expanding your map awareness – it’s as close to omniscient as you’ll get.
