Black Ops 7 has integrated with Call of Duty: Warzone for Season 1, adding the full BO7 weapon pool and attachments into the battle royale. While you can still use weapons from the last few years, the most powerful options are going to be the new Black Ops 7 guns. In this guide, we’ll provide some recommended weapon builds for Warzone in Season 1 of Black Ops 7.
Season 1 removes the Wildcard perks from Black Ops 6, and instead, you’ll have Overkill by default. This means you can equip a second primary weapon without the need to select any specific perks to your loadouts. This also means there’s no Gunfighter Wildcard, so you are limited to five attachments for each weapon build.
The Gunsmith is mostly the same this year; however, one new addition is Black Ops 7’s weapon build code feature. Weapon build codes are unique to each weapon and a specific set of attachments, making it easy to share and receive custom weapon builds.
Simply hit L3 to view your options while you are in the Gunsmith. This will let you import a weapon build code to use. Additionally, any weapon builds you create in the Gunsmith will have a code generated at the bottom-left corner of your screen.
We’ll list the attachments for each build and include the unique weapon code so you can easily use it.
Season 1 of Black Ops 7 overhauls Warzone’s perk selection. Make sure to check out our guide for all Warzone perks for BO7, including some recommended perks to try for your loadouts.
All our recommended Warzone loadouts can be viewed below, and we also have suggested multiplayer loadouts.
MXR-17
The MXR-17 is a powerful and easy-to-use assault rifle for long-range fights in Warzone. The recommended attachments will boost the gun’s damage range, bullet velocity, and increase ammo count.
The Greaves AccuSpot 3X is a great optic for most long-range builds, but if you’re playing small map Resurgence and don’t want the bigger scope, you can swap this out for something simple and clean like the Lethal Tools ELO.
Recommended MXR-17 attachments:
- Optic: Greaves AccuSpot 3X
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: 17″ Greaves Scourge Barrel
- Magazine: Rhodes Drum Mag
- Stock: Winch Stock
Build code: A03-26ERW-58T9U-11
MK.78
The MK.78 light machine gun is a heavy-hitting, long-range option for Warzone. The recommended attachments will help you reduce the gun’s recoil, making this much more manageable to use at range.
The recommended magazine is a Prestige attachment, so you might not have this unlocked yet, but it’s a very impactful attachment for improving mobility and reducing recoil. You can substitute the Gravepack Extended Belt if needed to simply boost the ammo count until you unlock it.
Recommended MK.78 attachments:
- Optic: Greaves AccuSpot 3X
- Muzzle: RL-7.62 Compensator
- Barrel: 25″ EAM Heavy Barrel
- Underbarrel: Bowen Sentry Foregrip
- Magazine: MFS Heatshield Belt Fed
Build code: L01-T49HC-5HZW-1
X9 Maverick
The X9 Maverick is a three-round burst assault rifle with high damage, and it can be a powerful choice for long-range fights. The recommended attachments will greatly boost the gun’s damage range and bullet velocity, as well as improve the aim-down-sight speed.
Recommended X9 Maverick attachments:
- Optic: Greaves AccuSpot 3X
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: 16″ OS-Density Barrel

DS20 Mirage
The DS20 Mirage assault rifle is another solid pick for assault rifles in Black Ops 7, but this gun also has a great build for a sniper support class. The recommended attachments will boost the ammo count, reduce recoil, and improve movement speed to make this gun work great for close to medium-range fights.
Recommended DS20 Mirage attachments:
- Optic: Lethal Tools ELO
- Muzzle: Redwell 5.56 Compensator
- Magazine: Andean Extended Mag
- Stock: Assault Division Stock
- Fire Mods: Recoil Sync Unit
Build code: A05-AUXZ3-94Q55-1
MPC-25
The MPC-25 submachine gun doesn’t feel very powerful in multiplayer, but it’s a powerful gun with a fast time-to-kill in battle royale. The recommended attachments will help reduce a lot of the weapon’s recoil, and it will also boost the ammo count.
This recommended build includes an optic for cleaner sights, but if you don’t mind the iron sights, it’s worth swapping the optic for the 14.5″ VAS Ashe Barrel for an increase to the damage range.
Recommended MPC-25 attachments:
- Optic: Lethal Tools ELO
- Muzzle: K&S Brake-28
- Underbarrel: VAS Drift Lock Foregrip
- Magazine: Sustain-25 Extended Mag
- Fire Mods: Recoil Sync Unit
Build code: S06-AV4J3-MWE75-1
Kogot-7
Season 1’s new Kogot-7 submachine gun is another solid choice for close-range combat in battle royale. The Kogot-7 does have a bit of recoil, but the recommended attachments will work to reduce quite a bit of the gun’s kick.
Recommended Kogot-7 attachments:
- Muzzle: Hawker Series 45
- Barrel: 13.5″ Canis-05 Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vas Drift Lock Foregrip
- Magazine: Vex Expanse Mag
- Fire Mods: Buffer Springs
Build code: S10-56XPL-8B31
VS Recon
The VS Recon is a deadly bolt-action sniper rifle, and this is a popular choice for sniping in Season 1. The recommended attachments will increase the damage range and bullet velocity, and also reduce some of the weapon’s kick.
The recommended underbarrel attachment is a Prestige attachment, so you might not have unlocked this yet, and you can substitute it for the Stetig-C Handguard if needed.
Recommended VS Recon attachments:
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: 23″ G-Force Barrel
- Underbarrel: MFS R-Stop Handguard
- Rear Grip: R-1 Shelf Grip
