A submachine gun of many names, but still consistent.

Some weapons just withstand the test of time in video games, and the C9 in Call of Duty is one of those guns.

It’s another weapon that has gotten a funky name change, as it’s an existing franchise gun with a new moniker in Black Ops 6. It’s perfect for getting up close and personal with enemies on objective points in Hardpoint or Domination and a great match for the game’s new omnimovement system.

Here’s our pick for the best build and class for the C9 in BO6.

The C9 is a classic SMG from CoD’s glory days. Lachmann Sub, MP5, whatever you want to call it, it’s a mainstay in CoD and other FPS series. It’s back again in BO6 as one of the options for SMG players to utilize omnimovement with.

Best C9 build in Black Ops 6

  • Muzzle: Compensator
  • Barrel: Long Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
  • Rear Grip: CQB Grip
  • Stock: Balanced Stock

There are no negative stat effects for attachments in BO6, so feel free to use as many as you like. This is our pick for the best attachments to use in your C9 build for multiplayer when it comes time to run and gun, dive around, and play the objective.

This build will treat you well once you master omnimovement and get your muscle memory down for maneuvering around maps. The Compensator, Long Barrel, and Vertical Foregrip will do wonders for your ability to fight enemies at mid-range, but the CQB Grip and Balanced Stock really help out when it comes to out-maneuvering your foes.

Best C9 class setup in Black Ops 6

Equipment

  • Pistol: GS45
  • Melee: Knife
  • Tactical: Concussion
  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Field Upgrade: Trophy System

Perks and class setup

  • Perk one: Ghost
  • Perk two: Dexterity
  • Perk three: Double Time
  • Perk four: Gung-Ho
  • Wildcard: Perk Greed
  • Specialty: Enforcer

Slippery. That’s one word I’d use to describe this class setup when it comes to the Perks. Perk Greed enables some incredible movement combined with all four enabled, especially since it triggers the Specialty, Enforcer.

  • Enforcer: “Killing enemies grants a temporary buff to movement speed and health regen rate.”

You will always be on the move, using omnimovement to slide, dive, and dodge your way to multiple kills with the C9, triggering Enforcer to give yourself increased movement speed and regeneration of your health. It’s a nasty combination.
