Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's New Buffer Weight Stock Attachment: How to Unlock and Equip

A powerful new attachment in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is boosting the effectiveness of several weapons, but obtaining it isn't straightforward. This guide explains how to unlock and equip the Buffer Weight Stock.

Unlike most attachments earned through gameplay progression, the Buffer Weight Stock is unlocked via the in-game "The Hit List" event. Access the "Event" tab in the Black Ops 6 Multiplayer main menu. Locate the "Community" section within the event; the Buffer Weight Stock will be listed there, and simply viewing the page unlocks it. The attachment was unlocked community-wide through a cumulative elimination goal (eight billion eliminations), a milestone already achieved.

Equipping the Buffer Weight Stock

While unlocking the attachment is easy, its use is restricted. The Buffer Weight Stock is only compatible with three weapons: the XM4 Assault Rifle, the DM-10 Marksman Rifle, and the XMG Light Machine Gun. This limitation prevents potential game balance issues. For those using one of these eligible weapons, equipping the stock is simple. Navigate to the Gunsmith, select the Stock attachment slot, and add the Buffer Weight Stock. Its significant accuracy boost makes it a valuable addition to any build. Now get out there and start racking up those eliminations to unlock the rest of The Hit List rewards.

That's how to unlock and equip the powerful Buffer Weight Stock in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

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