Unlocking the Buffer Weight Stock

Unlike many attachments earned through gameplay progression, the Buffer Weight Stock is unlocked via participation in the Hit List event. Access the "Event" tab in the Black Ops 6 Multiplayer main menu. Locate the "Community" section; the Buffer Weight Stock will be listed there. Simply viewing this page unlocks the attachment. The initial unlock goal (eight billion eliminations) has been surpassed, making acquisition readily available to all players.

Equipping the Buffer Weight Stock

While unlocking is simple, equipping the Buffer Weight Stock is more restrictive. It's compatible with only three weapons: the XM4 Assault Rifle, the DM-10 Marksman Rifle, and the XMG Light Machine Gun. This limitation prevents the attachment from dominating gameplay. However, its significant accuracy boost makes it highly desirable for those using eligible weapons.

To equip it, navigate to the Gunsmith for your chosen weapon. Select the "Stock" attachment slot and choose the Buffer Weight Stock. It's then ready for use. This unlocks the potential for increased kills and further progression through The Hit List rewards.

In summary, this guide provides a clear path to unlocking and equipping the powerful Buffer Weight Stock in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
