Best C9 loadout in Black Ops 6

Best SMG imo

If you are looking for a weapon that can provide you with all-round abilities like accuracy, least recoil, and fast fire rate, then you should definitely check out C9 in Black Ops 6. Ever since I switched from XM4 to C9, I have been getting more kills in Bo6.

With that said, C9 is not as perfect as it seems, and it needs several attachments and perks to get the most out of it. To help you with that, here is a comprehensive guide to the best C9 loadout and build in Black Ops 6.

What is the best build for the C9 in Black Ops 6?

  • Optic: PrismaTech Reflex
  • Muzzle: Ported Compensator
  • Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
  • Magazine: Extended Mag II
  • Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

I personally like the PrismaTech Reflex optic, but you can opt for any optic that suits your preferences. It’s fine to use any scope that you want until it hampers the handling of the weapon.

For Muzzle, I go for the Ported Compensator instead of just a basic Compensator because it reduces the first shot recoil and gives a solid grasp in vertical recoil control.

You can use the Reinforced Barrel as it boosts C9’s damage range and bullet velocity. If you just started using this weapon, you can suffice with the Long Barrel.

Always opt for a bigger magazine if the fire rate of the weapon is very high. In C9’s case, equip the Extended Mag II.

I find Rapid Fire personally best as it boosts the fire rate of the weapon. Since the game is fast-paced, I don’t want my weapon to be a slow poke.
