In *Black Ops 6* Multiplayer, the PPSh-41 shines with its high capacity and rapid fire rate, making it a formidable choice for close-quarters combat and multi-kills. However, its significant recoil can challenge your aim, particularly when aiming for headshots essential for camo challenges. Here’s how to optimize your PPSh-41:

This setup significantly improves the PPSh-41's accuracy and mobility, making it ideal for flanking and engaging multiple enemies. Despite its high fire rate, which consumes ammo quickly, these attachments balance its strengths. Complement your loadout with these perks:

  • Perk 2: Assassin – Marks enemies on kill streaks and provides Bounty Packs for extra Score.
  • Perk 3: Double Time – Extends Tactical Sprint duration.
  • Perk Greed: Scavenger – Replenishes ammo and equipment from defeated enemies.

These perks, along with the Enforcer Combat Specialty, grant a temporary boost to movement speed and health regeneration after kills.
