The GS45 is a powerful pistol in all game types inCall of Duty: Black Ops 6.This variant of the USP 45 is a potential two-tap in core multiplayer and morphs into the iconic Mustang & Sally explosive sidearms in Zombies. If you’re looking for a reliable pistol in every situation, the GS45 won’t let you down.

Today, we’ll be looking at two builds for the GS45 that greatly improve the pistol’s performance. The first build is focused on improving its MP performance, while the second build is tailored for optimizing the Pack-A-Punched version you can get in Zombies.

Multiplayer GS45 Build

Pistols are surprisingly strong in multiplayer if you’re within close range, especially once you throw aLong Barrelon to increase the weapon’s two-tap range. AQuickdraw Gripgreatly buffs your ADS speed, while theExtended Mag Inearly doubles your magazine size at the cost of a minor reload speed hit. We recommend aSuppressorto stay off enemy radar andany opticfor clear enemy tracking during a gunfight.

Zombies GS45 Build

If you’re using the GS45 in Zombies, you’re either farming camos or aim to Pack-A-Punch the weapon to make it an explosive firearm. In the latter case, you’ll want to throw onAkimboto double your burst DPS. This greatly lowers your hipfire accuracy, but you can remedy this with theSteady Aim Laser.

For handling, you’ll want aShort Barrelto mitigate midair penalties for sprint-to-fire stats and theCQC Gripto further reduce your sprint-to-fire delay. Throw on aSuppressorto spawn more Salvage from kills.
