The C9 submachine gun is one of the first weapons that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players can use and is viable up to mid-range combat with some tuning. Here is the best C9 SMG loadout in Black Ops 6.
Best C9 SMG Attachments in Black Ops 6
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Fire Mods: Recoil Springs
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
The C9 already has moderate power in each of the four stats, so this build is about improving recoil through the Compensator, Vertical Foregrip, and Recoil Springs. The Long Barrel will give the gun a long range to deal damage, while the Ergonomic Grip will improve aiming down sight while sliding and diving. The last part is unlocked towards the end of the weapon’s progression but is well worth it.
Best C9 Loadout in Black Ops 6
- Secondary: Grekhova
- Melee: Knife
- Tactical: Stim Shot
- Lethal: Semtex
- Field Upgrade: War Cry
- Perk 1: Gung-Ho
- Perk 2: Forward Intel
- Perk 3: Double Time
- Specialty: Enforcer
- Perk Greed: Dexterity
- Wildcard: Perk Greed
The build is focused on running and gunning all around the Enforcer Specialty, which gives increased movement speed and health regen for killing an enemy. This can be activated by equipping three red perks, but the Perk Greed Wildcard will give us an extra perk.
Gung-Ho, Double Time, and Dexterity all improve movement while aiming and reloading. The second perk can be very fluid on your playstyle, but Forward Intel can be helpful for giving you more minimap and the direction of revealed enemies.
How to Unlock the C9 in Black Ops 6
The C9 submachine gun can be unlocked at level 4, which will open up custom classes for players to customize. It is the first SMG for players to use, so there are no other requirements necessary to unlock.
