The Kilo 141 in Black Ops 6 looks a little different than its series debut, because the latest iteration of Call of Duty multiplayer has a much more streamlined attachment system, but the gist of the weapon is still the same: Manage the recoil and it becomes a powerhouse.
Much like weapons such as the XM4 and Krig C, the Kilo 141 is another jack-of-all-trades assault rifle. This means it doesn’t particularly excel in any one area, but instead is capable of handling enemies up close, at medium range, and all the way across the map with the right attachments. The best Kilo 141 build eschews close quarters combat, though, as there are plenty of SMGs and other fully automatic guns in our list of the best Black Ops 6 guns to cover the former.
Here’s the best Kilo 141 loadout in Black Ops 6, the best class to use with it, and how to unlock it.
How to unlock the Kilo 141 in Black Ops 6
To unlock the Kilo 141 in Black Ops 6, all you need to do is install and boot up Warzone. The gun has arrived alongside the return of Verdansk, the first ever Warzone map, so it’s a free reward to all who play the battle royale mode once. When you’ve done that, the Kilo 141 will be available for use in both Black Ops 6 and Warzone (though this loadout suggestion is focused on Black Ops 6 multiplayer!).

Here’s the best Kilo 141 loadout in Black Ops 6:
- Optic: Pinpoint Holoscout
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Commando Grip
- Stock: Combat Stock
- Fire Mods: Rapid Fire
Firstly, use the Gunfighter Wildcard with this build to allow for eight attachments instead of just five. That’s because while the Kilo 141 is a strong weapon with just five, with an additional three it allows you to use Rapid Fire while negating the adverse recoil effects.
Most of these attachments are focused on just that: allowing Rapid Fire to flourish while still maintaining its accuracy. As always, the optical sight you use is largely personal preference, but the Pinpoint Holoscout offers a decent mix of zoom while still having a low enough magnification to not be a hindrance at close range.
The Compensator muzzle and Vertical Foregrip both go a long way to improving the recoil control, while the Long Barrel increases the damage range considerably. You could opt for the Reinforced Barrel instead, but the bullet velocity buff is negligible in Black Ops 6 multiplayer because you’re not usually fighting at long enough distances for it to have an impact.
Any of the Extended Magazine attachments can do a job here, but we’ve opted for the first one because it doesn’t have any downsides attached. If you don’t feel like 50 bullets per magazine is enough, go for the second or third tiers.
The Commando Grip is useful for your aim down sight and sprint to fire speeds, because even though this build lends itself to a slower pace of play, you never know when you might be caught unaware. Finally, the Combat Stock’s flinch resistance buff is incredibly underrated for helping you stay on target when you’re in a head-on gunfight.

Here’s the best class to use with the Kilo 141 in Black Ops 6:
- Pistol: Grekhova
- Melee: Katanas
- Tactical: Flashbang
- Lethal: Frag Grenade
- Field Upgrade: Trophy System
- Perk 1: Flak Jacket
- Perk 2: Fast Hands
- Perk 3: Gearhead
- Specialty: Strategist
- Wildcard: Gunfighter
There’s nothing too unorthodox in this class, since it’s a fairly standard playstyle, so start with the Grekhova as the best pistol choice: It’s fully automatic and lends itself well to being switched to at short notice to deal with enemies up close. Your other option is the Katanas melee weapon, because they simultaneously deal the most damage and have a fast attack speed compared to all the melee options available right now.
The Flashbang and Frag Grenade combo is an old classic that still reigns supreme as the best choice here, while going for the Trophy System allows you to both defend objectives if you go for them or protect yourself if you’re posted up as an anchor in a specific spot.
Opt for the green perks here, which means the Strategist specialty is in effect, giving you a score bonus for completing objectives and destroying enemy equipment. Flak Jacket offers more protection against incoming explosives, especially useful when you don’t have a Trophy System available, while Fast Hands means you can switch weapons faster. Finally, Gearhead gives you two field upgrades – so in this case, two Trophy Systems — and it allows you to hack all manner of enemy equipment, such as Prox Alarms and Blast Traps.
If Gunfighter doesn’t take your fancy and you opt for just five attachments, choose Perk Greed instead, as this will allow you to run with Tac Mask alongside Flak Jacket.
