Black Ops 6: Best loadout and perks for the Jackal PDW

The latest Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 title has introduced several new submachine guns. BO6’s Jackal PDW stands out for its exceptional running accuracy, and using the best loadout can cover up many of its other shortcomings.

The Jackal PDW is unlocked late in the game except for those grinding Black Ops 6 hard enough to reach level 43. The weapon’s high accuracy boosts aggressive players’ confidence, making it perfect for high-intensity fights. Of course, if someone is using Jackal PDW, it likely means they often find themselves on the front lines.

Unfortunately, this SMG isn’t as reliable at long range. A few attachments can fix that, at least to some degree.

Best Jackal PDW loadout and perks in Black Ops 6

A Suppressor, Long Barrel, and Ranger Foregrip stand among the best attachments for the Jackal PDW in BO6.

Compact yet deadly, the Jackal PDW excels in close-quarters accuracy. While no SMG in Black Ops 6 shines at long range, this loadout enhances its accuracy for medium-range duels. Paired with the right perks, players will feel a significant buff in their overall viability in modes like Kill Order, Domination, and similar.

  • Muzzle: Suppressor
  • Barrel: Long Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
  • Rear Grip: CQB/Quickdraw
  • Magazine: Extended Mag I
  • Combat speciality: Enforcer

SMG users love to sneak up on enemies, but that’s not possible when the tiny red dot announces your arrival the moment a bullet escapes the muzzle. The suppressor avoids that, allowing for stealthy plays.

Combining the Long Barrel and Ranger Foregrip transforms the Jackal PDW into a versatile weapon. The Long Barrel boosts medium-range damage, while the Ranger Foregrip enhances mobility by increasing movement speed and controlling horizontal recoil. Extended Mag 1 boosts ammo capacity, cutting down the need for mid-duel reloads.

One downside is that reload speed will be a bit slower, but the extra rounds are well worth it. Rear Grip can be swapped between CQB and Quickdraw. The former stacks well with other attachments, but for those still leveling up, opt for Quickdraw for enhanced ADS speed.

How to get Enforcer Combat Speciality in Black Ops 6

To complete this build, select three perks from the Red class to unlock the Enforcer Combat Specialty.

Players can select any three perks, but Gung-Ho, Dexterity, and Double Time are recommended. Combining these three will grant a bonus perk, providing a temporary boost to movement speed and health regeneration rate after each kill. This can be highly valuable in Kill Order.
