Best Jackal PDW attachments in Black Ops 6
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag 1
- Rear Grip: CQB Grip
First up, the Compensator Muzzle is a massive help when it comes to recoil control. Combine that with the Long Barrel and you’ll be taking enemies on at longer distances, which is always a bonus with an SMG.
The Ranger Foregrip is a must as it not only improves horizontal handling, but it also boosts mobility, which is massive in Black Ops 6 thanks to Omnimovement. We then have the Extended Mag 1 which provides more than enough bullets to take on multiple enemies and the CQB Grip which further enhances mobility by letting you shoot faster when sliding or diving.
Best Perks, Wildcard & Equipment for Jackal PDW
- Perk 1: Ghost
- Perk 2: Gung-Ho
- Perk 3: Double Time
- Perk 4: Dexterity
- Wildcard: Perk Greed
- Lethal: Frag Grenade
- Tactical: Stim Shot
- Field Upgrade: Trophy System
Perks are an essential aspect of any loadout, and since the game now features Combat Specialties, I love the Enforcer for its health regen buff. So, with that said, you’ll want to pick Perk Greed as your Wildcard and select Ghost, Gung-Ho, Double Time, and Dexerty, which combine to provide mobility and stealth.
As for Equipment, a Frag Grenade is deadly if you cook and throw it at the right time, while Stim Shots keep your health topped up in sticky situations. Lastly, we’ve chosen the Trophy System as the Field Upgrade as it provides great team support in objective modes.
Best Secondary for Jackal PDW
Select a Pistol as your Secondary with the Jackal PDW, as this will allow you to finish off any enemies that manage to survive a burst from the SMG.
Launchers are a good choice if you are looking to take out enemy scorestreaks, but if you’re more aggressive and want kills, a Pistol is a perfect sidearm to support a run-and-gun playstyle.

Is the Jackal PDW any good in Black Ops 6?
The Jackal PDW is an excellent close-range option in Black Ops 6, and with this build, it can even perform at longer distances. It slightly lacks in fire rate and recoil control, but with some mastering, you can dominate lobbies with it.
Best alternatives to the Jackal PDW in Black Ops 6
If you’re looking for something more close-range, a nice alternative is the C9 SMG, which fans of the MP5 will feel right at home with. If you want something that packs more of a punch but has a similar feel to the Jackal, the AK-74 is the perfect replacement.
