Best PU-21 Loadout in Call of Duty Black Ops 6

In the LMG category, the PU-21 is the premium choice for raw damage per bullet in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Its re🗹coil is a bit unwieldy, but the best builds focus on reducing this downside so that you can effectively use it at all ranges

The PU-21 is the very first LMG you have access to. The game automatically unlocks the PU-21 at level 4, letting you equip it in any custom loadout. Let’s explore the best build for the PU-21.

What is the best build for the PU-21 in Black Ops 6?

As mentioned, the PU-21 does the most damage per bullet of any LMG, making it a strong contender for those looking to put down targets in just a few shots. As with all LMGs, it has a slow ADS (Aim Down Sights) and relatively poor handling stats. The downsides are its shaky recoil and lower RoF, but these can be mitigated with the correct attachment build equipped to it. This build focuses on reducing the PU-21’s downsides so that it can be used in any situation, whether it be point defense or aggressive gameplay.

• Optic: Accu-Spot Ultra Holo
• Muzzle: Ported Compensator
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Magazine: Fast Mag 1
• Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
• Stock: Infiltrator Stock
• Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

Optics are always a personal preference, but I’ve found that the Accu-Spot Ultra Holo strikes the perfect balance for all combat scenarios and engagement distances. It offers a ไclea🌠r sight line, allowing you to make moment-to-moment adjustments to remain on target.

With a Ported Compensator attached, the PU-21 is far more controllable with reduced vertical recoil and a more normalized firs🙈t-shot recoil, improving accuracy.

Using the Reinforced Barrel, the PU-21 is more of a threat to distant targets thanks to its already high damage profile, allowing you to bring down enemies at any range in just a few shots. It won’t be common to outgun snipers, thanks to this attachment.

Equip this weapon with a Vertical Foregrip to reduce its horizontal recoil, improving its accuracy. This means this weapon’s side-to-side shake while firing full-auto w⛦ill ✨be much more controlled.

The Fast Mag 1 dramatically improves the PU-21’s handling stats, allowing you to ADS faster and be ready to fire more quickly after a sprint. This allows a fighting chance against enemies that ambush you.

Equipping the Quickdraw Grip massively boosts your ADS speed, improving the weapon’s handling during combat engagements.

With the Infiltrator Stock, your ADS strafe speed is increased, allowing you some solid mobility in the midd💎le of an active firefightܫ. The faster you can move with ADS, the harder it is for your enemies to hit you.

Lastly, using the Rapid Fire attachment removes the low rate of fire limitation on the PU-21 at the expense of some Damage Range and increased recoil. However, these negatives pale in comparison to the incredible DPS (Damage Per Second)💛 increase this weapon gets with Rapid Fi🦩re attached.

Best Equipment and Perks for the LR 7.62 in Black Ops 6

With the above attachments, the PU-21 is a strong all-rounder weapon that can be used anywhere. As such, the Equipment and Perks you should use with it should be within the same vein of logic, further boosting the build’s versatility.

• Tactical: Flash Bang or Stim Shot
• Lethal: Semtax or Molotov
• Field Upgrade: Assault Pack
• Perk 1: Flak Jacket
• Perk 2: Fast Hands
• Perk 3: Quartermaster
• Wildcard: Gunfighter

Thanks to Gunfighter, you can fully kit out the PU-21 with the above-mentioned attachments. With all three Perks being green, you also have access to the Strategist Speciality, allowing you to see enemy equipment through walls. This also lets you throw down your own E❀quipment and Field Upgrades much faster than normal. The rest of the mentioned Equipment is designed to b꧃e largely your own choice, dependent on the situation, but the ones I mentioned will fit most anyway. Still, feel free to change things to your liking as needed.
