In Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, a new attachment, the Buffer Weight Stock, is causing a stir by significantly boosting the power of certain weapons. However, acquiring and using it isn't straightforward. This guide explains how to unlock and equip this sought-after attachment.
Unlocking the Buffer Weight Stock in Black Ops 6
Unlike many attachments earned through gameplay progression, the Buffer Weight Stock is unlocked via a community challenge in the "The Hit List" event. Access the "Event" tab in the Black Ops 6 Multiplayer main menu. Within the "Community" section, you'll find the Buffer Weight Stock. Since the required community elimination goal has already been met, simply viewing this page unlocks the attachment. Using it effectively is a different challenge, however.
Equipping the Buffer Weight Stock in Black Ops 6
The Buffer Weight Stock's functionality is limited to three specific weapons: the XM4 Assault Rifle, the DM-10 Marksman Rifle, and the XMG Light Machine Gun. This restriction prevents the attachment from dominating the game's meta. For those lucky enough to use one of these compatible weapons, equipping the stock is simple. Navigate to the Gunsmith, select the appropriate weapon, and add the Buffer Weight Stock from the available Stock attachments.
This completes the process of unlocking and equipping the 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.
