The Buffer Weight Stock attachment in Black Ops 6 is another in a long line of optional gear you can add to your favorite guns. It doesn’t apply to all though, and there’s confusion about how it works. This guide covers the Buffer Weight Stock unlock requirements, how to equip it, and explains its effects.
I yearn for the old days of CoD where attachments were limited. You relied more on your skill and the default characteristics of the weapon, rather than turning it into a bespoke beast. Nevertheless, each new Call of Duty title has a mountain of attachments available for each gun, and Black Ops 6 has added the Buffer Weight Stock to add to the possibilities.
This new attachment links directly to the Hit List Event in Black Ops 6, and there’s plenty to dive into.
What Does the Buffer Weight Stock Attachment do in Black Ops 6?
Black Ops 6’s Buffer Weight Stock offers huge increases to Vertical and Horizontal Recoil Control—making any respective weapon it’s attached to much more accurate.
Here’s the pros and cons of the attachment.
Pros
- Vertical and Horizontal Recoil Control x3
Cons
- Aim Down Sight Speed x1
- Aim Walking Movement Speed x1
Stock attachments usually help ADS, hip-fire spread, and other movement stats. This makes the Buffer Weight Stock extremely unique, and along with a Barrel attachment—and other accuracy-aiding attachments—you can turn your gun into a veritable laser beam.
