Black Ops 6 Attachments
The focus for Black Ops 6 is to condense and streamline Attachments so you can easily understand the bonuses when it comes to utilizing the Gunsmith. Here are some of the changes:
Available on:Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns, LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Pistols.
Not Available on:Launchers, Melee Weapons.
Stat Benefit:Accuracy
Sights or scopes attached to the top of a weapon, designed to improve accuracy during target engagement. Occasionally improves Recoil Gun Kick. More powerful scopes (usually designed for Sniper Rifles) may reduce ADS Speed.
Note:Optics are a unique type of Attachment as they are universal. This means that once you unlock an Optic, it becomes available for every weapon in the same class, not just the one you unlocked it for.
Note:Optics come with Reticles; markings and dots that further delineate your targets and aid in your aiming. Your Optics can be further customized by unlocking a variety of Reticles via Reticle Challenges.
Available on:Assault Rifles*, SMGs, Shotguns, LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Pistols.
Usually attached to the end of the weapon barrel, Muzzles are used to redirect gasses (as necessary) and serve to reduce or control recoil.
Stat Benefit:Firepower
The front section of the weapon where the projectile travels through once the trigger has been pulled. Attachments tend to improve damage range and velocity, enabling you to hit a target more rapidly.
Underbarrels:
Available on:Assault Rifles, SMGs*, Shotguns, LMGs, Marksman Rifles.
Not Available on:Sniper Rifles, Pistols, Launchers, Melee Weapons.
Stat Benefit:Firepower, Accuracy
Attached to the base of the barrel, Underbarrels come in two main varieties: Foregrips and Launchers. Foregrips are handles that can reduce recoil and sway (Accuracy). Launchers increase your firepower by adding an alt-fire capacity to the weapon, usually an explosive charge or grenade.

Magazines:
Available on:Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns*, LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Pistols.
Stat Benefit:Firepower or Handling
Magazines hold a weapon’s ammunition and are generally available in two types: Extended Mags allow you to carry more rounds, increasing Firepower sometimes at the expense of Handling. Fast or Flip Mags reduce your Firepower as you have fewer bullets but improve your Handling.
Available on:Sniper Rifles
Not Available on:Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns*, LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Pistols, Launchers, Melee Weapons.
Stat Benefit:Handling
Also known as a Cheek Riser, Combs are Sniper Rifle-only head rests attached to the top of the Stock, and offer improved Handling, mainly decreasing the time it takes you to fire or ADS. This can come at the expense of Accuracy, depending on the specific Comb.
Rear Grips:
Available on:Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns*, LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Pistols.
Not Available on:Sniper Rifles, Launchers, Melee Weapons.
A rubber handle behind the weapon trigger. Attachments offer a variety of Handling improvements, usually decreasing the time it takes you to ADS, or fire under specific circumstances.
Stat Benefit:Accuracy or Mobility
These are braces enabling the Operator to support the armament against their shoulder and attach to the rear of the weapon. Generally, the lighter the stock Attachment, the more focused on increasing your Mobility (usually movement speed). Heavier stocks offer more benefits to your Accuracy (usually flinch resistance).
These side-mounted lasers (or under-mounted for Pistols) emit a beam of usually red or green light usually visible to the enemy. However, your Accuracy is significantly improved or augmented.
NOTE:The Tactical Laser enables Tactical Stance, allowing you to balance your mobility and accuracy. This is the method to utilize theModern Warfare® IIIfiring technique in Black Ops 6.
Fire Mods:
Stat Benefit:Firepower, Accuracy, or Handling (Varies depending on Fire Mod)
A “catch-all” of other Attachments, Fire Modifications have a variety of uses and are mainly focused into two subsets; improvements to parts of a weapon (examples include rapid fire triggers, pump guide rods, and recoil springs) and specific ammunition types (examples include FMJ or Overpressured rounds).
Stock Pads:
Available on:Sniper Rifles*
This Buttstock Pad Attachment is only available for the LW3A1 Frostline Sniper Rifle. Fitting into the shoulder of the Operator, the Stock Pads available improve Accuracy in discernable ways (improving Speed, Sway, or Recoil).
Expect more guns, maps and modes and more to be added to Black Ops 6 once its first season launches alongside Warzone and Call of Duty: Mobile.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be released on October 25 on the PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
