Best Weapon Attachments in Warzone

Warzone is back and better than ever, taking players back to the familiar battleground of Verdansk that started it all. Season 3 of Warzone’s Black Ops 6 integration marks a major shift in the direction of the game, focusing on returning to the golden days with classic content, quality-of-life updates, and a general overhaul that makes Warzone feel much more like its 2020 counterpart.

Of course, with all these additions, the meta in Warzone has shifted once again and continues to evolve with each major update. As players dive in, they’ll find themselves customizing each of their weapons with a variety of different attachments. But what exactly are the best ones? That and more in this comprehensive guide, which details the absolute best attachment for each category.

Muzzles

Best Muzzles For Black Ops 6 Weapons

When it comes to the best muzzles for the Black Ops 6 weapons in Warzone, three options really stand out, each serving its own benefits for a particular niche of weapons. These attachments are the following:

Monolithic Suppressor: Provides a neat buff to both damage range and bullet velocity at the cost of handling. Great for long-range weapons like Snipers and Assault Rifles, but best avoided with close-range guns like Submachine Guns.
Compensator: Enhances accuracy by reducing vertical recoil and providing additional recoil stabilization. Ideal for weapons with a noticeable amount of vertical kick, particularly full-auto options like certain Submachine Guns.
Suppressor: Keeps players off the minimap when firing, with zero downsides. An excellent option for close-range weapons that don’t need a significant boost to range but could benefit from stealth without compromising speed.

Best Muzzles For Modern Warfare Weapons

For Modern Warfare 2 and 3 guns, finding the right muzzle can be pretty overwhelming, as there are so many to choose from. However, with the integration of Black Ops 6, many attachments are now identical in how they perform. Here, we’ve narrowed down the best ones to use:

Quartermaster Suppressor: A strong pick for long-range setups that benefit from recoil control and stealth, especially Assault Rifles. It mainly focuses on boosting vertical and horizontal recoil control, along with keeping players off the minimap. However, this does come at the cost of reduced aim-down-sight and sprint-to-fire speeds.
Monolithic Suppressor / Polarfire-S / VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor (or equivalent): Boosts bullet velocity and damage range without any cons, while also providing no firing ping on the minimap. These are a great pick for any weapon type, particularly those that don’t need too much focus on recoil reduction.
Sakin Tread-40 / EX-01 Match Compensator / Lacerta Compensator (or equivalent): Focuses on increasing recoil control and gun kick control for enhanced accuracy. Generally, a must for weapons that boast a high amount of recoil, even with other recoil-reducing attachments equipped.
LR4 Flash Hider/Spiral V3.5 Flash Hider: Conceals muzzle flash, increases damage range, and improves firing aim stability. A must-use for certain Submachine Guns that boast increased visual recoil, like the WSP Swarm.

Barrels

Best Barrels For Black Ops 6 Weapons

Next up are barrel attachments, with the best ones being fairly easy to pick, as there are only a few options to choose from. We've narrowed the best options down to three particular barrels, each one suited for specific weapon types.

Reinforced Barrel: Provides a minor buff to both damage range and bullet velocity—two very important stats in Warzone specifically. The Reinforced Barrel is a solid pick for ranged weapons like Assault Rifles, extending their versatility at range.
Long Barrel: Focuses primarily on extending damage range, and is more effective in that regard than the Reinforced Barrel. Since this attachment does not boost bullet velocity, it serves as the best pick for close-range weapons like Submachine Guns and Pistols, both of which gain little advantage from increased bullet velocity. It’s also a great pairing with certain Snipers that have a limited one-shot headshot range when paired with Overpressured Ammunition.
Gain-Twist Barrel: Mainly boosts bullet velocity, making it more effective than the Reinforced Barrel in that aspect. Since the damage range is not extended, the Gain-Twist Barrel is most beneficial for weapons that already boast high damage at a distance. It’s most suitable for Sniper Rifles with an infinite headshot range, such as the HDR Sniper Rifle.

Best Barrels For Modern Warfare Weapons

Rarely do any of the Modern Warfare weapons share the same barrels, making it pretty difficult to narrow down the best ones. However, generally, Modern Warfare weapons benefit most from barrel options that enhance the weapon's potential at range. When searching for a solid barrel, opt for one that provides the biggest bonuses to damage range and bullet velocity. If a particular weapon has a noticeable amount of weapon kick and recoil, however, consider a barrel that improves recoil control.

Underbarrels

Best Underbarrels For Black Ops 6 Weapons

For the most part, when it comes to Black Ops 6 weapons, the Vertical Foregrip stands out as the best underbarrel option. This is thanks to its ability to reduce horizontal recoil, which is generally harder to control than vertical recoil. As a result, weapons are significantly more accurate at range, especially with fully automatic options.

However, for weapons that don’t require a major overhaul in recoil management, such as certain Submachine Guns, the Ranger Foregrip or equivalent attachments work just fine, offering improved horizontal recoil control and increased movement speed. Other weapons, like Sniper Rifles, for instance, can often function effectively without an under-barrel attachment at all.

Best Underbarrels For Modern Warfare Weapons

Just like muzzles, the underbarrels for the Modern Warfare weapons in Warzone are largely universal across most guns, and for the most part, many of them perform quite similarly. Generally, players can narrow their focus to two primary types of underbarrels, Vertical Grips and Handstops, each offering distinct advantages. Here’s a quick breakdown of what each type brings to the table:

Kimura RYN-03 Vertical Grip / Holger Vertical Grip / VX Pineapple (or equivalent Vertical Grips): These attachments focus on improving recoil control and firing aim stability. They’re a solid choice for supported weapons like Assault Rifles and Light Machine Guns, where boosting accuracy over range is key.
XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop / XTEN Phantom-5 Handstop / DR-6 Handstop (or equivalent Handstops): These enhance both aim-down-sight speed and sprint-to-fire speed. They’re perfect for weapons that already have manageable recoil but could use a handling boost, like many Submachine Guns or specific Marksman Rifles such as the Kar98k.

Magazines

When it comes to the best magazine attachment for weapons in Warzone, players can generally approach both Black Ops 6 and Modern Warfare weapons in the same way. For most weapons, especially Assault Rifles and Submachine Guns, the largest available magazine is typically the best choice.

Although larger magazines often come with downsides such as slower reload speeds, as well as reduced aim-down-sight and sprint-to-fire times, the benefit of having more bullets per mag far outweighs these drawbacks when going up against armored enemies. That said, certain weapons—such as Sniper Rifles and bolt-action Marksman Rifles—tend to function just fine without a magazine upgrade.

Rear Grips

Best Rear Grips For Black Ops 6 Weapons

Going forward, the rest of the attachment categories for weapons in Warzone can often be skipped, as most weapons generally perform well with a five-attachment build consisting of a muzzle, barrel, underbarrel, magazine, and optic. However, certain weapons—and even Gunfighter builds—can benefit from adding a rear grip, with the best options for Black Ops 6 weapons being the following:

Quickdraw Grip: Increases aim-down-sight speed and jumping aim-down-sight speed. This is ideally the top choice for Sniper Rifles, helping reduce scope-in time for quicker target acquisition.
Commando Grip: Offers similar benefits to the Quickdraw Grip but with a slightly lower aim-down-sight speed boost. However, it also improves sprint-to-fire and jumping sprint-to-fire speeds, making it best suited for Submachine Guns and Assault Rifles looking to reduce sprint-out time caused by Tactical Sprinting.

Best Rear Grips For Modern Warfare Weapons

Much like barrels, many of the Modern Warfare weapons have their own unique rear grips that, for the most part, make choosing the right one fairly difficult. While players can often get away without using one, if they do choose to equip a rear grip, opting for one that increases recoil and gun kick control is often the best approach. Rear grips that boost sprint-to-fire and aim-down-sight speed can also be great for certain Sniper Rifles, but they often come at the cost of reduced flinch resistance and recoil control.

Stocks

Best Stocks For Black Ops 6 Weapons

Stocks follow suit with rear grips, often being skipped in favor of more impactful attachments. However, for certain builds, they can still be quite viable. As of right now, for Black Ops 6 weapons, the best stocks include the Balanced Stock, No Stock, and Light Stock.

All three primarily boost movement speed, with the No Stock and Light Stock excelling in hip movement speed, while the Balanced Stock improves strafing speed, general movement speed, and aiming movement speed. For weapons that support it and need help with recoil control, consider using the Buffer Weight Stock.

Best Stocks For Modern Warfare Weapons

Following the trend of past Modern Warfare attachments, stocks are generally unique to each weapon and can often be skipped. However, if players choose to run a stock, selecting one that improves recoil control and gun kick control is generally the best option. Most other stocks come with too many drawbacks, often doing more harm than good.

Lasers

Best Lasers For Black Ops 6 Weapons

Lasers can generally be avoided for all Black Ops 6 weapons in Warzone. However, for Sniper Rifles specifically, one particular laser attachment can elevate a build to meta status. The Target Laser is an excellent choice for Sniper Rifles, offering reduced aiming idle sway and improved aim walking steadiness, making the weapon more accurate during the initial moments of scoping in.

Best Lasers For Modern Warfare Weapons

Similar to other attachments, lasers for Modern Warfare weapons are not entirely necessary. However, the best options are the VLK LZR 7MW and the FSS OLE-V Laser for weapons that support them. Both lasers primarily improve aim-down-sight and sprint-to-fire speeds, with the only drawback being that the laser becomes visible while aiming down sights.

Fire Mods & Ammunition

Best Fire Mods For Black Ops 6 Weapons

If players have a free attachment slot and wish to add a Fire Mod to their Black Ops 6 weapon in Warzone, there are only two options worth considering. The first is Recoil Springs, which significantly reduces both horizontal and vertical recoil. The other is Overpressured Rounds, an excellent choice for Snipers due to the substantial increase in bullet velocity they provide.

Best Ammunition For Modern Warfare Weapons

For the best ammunition for Modern Warfare weapons, two notable options should be considered. The first is High Grain Rounds, which provide an increase to both damage range and bullet velocity. For weapons that already boast great damage range, however, High-Velocity ammunition should work just fine.

For the most part, the best optic is a matter of personal preference. Be sure to use whichever optic works best for you.
