  • Fire Mods: Recoil Springs
  • Muzzle: Compensator
  • Optic: Accu-Spot Reflex
  • Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
  • Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip

The XM4 may lack in damage compared to other assault rifles unlocked later on, but it is high on accuracy and handling. The Compensator, Vertical Foregrip, and Recoil Springs will decrease the recoil even further.

The Ergonomic Grip improves aiming down sights while sliding and diving, but players can use the Quickdraw Grip or Commando Grip until reaching weapon level 40. The Accu-Spot Reflex requires weapon level 25 with the AK 47, but it is a spacious open sight with a minimal red dot.

Best XM4 Loadout in Black Ops 6

  • Secondary: Grekhova
  • Melee: Knife
  • Tactical: Stim Shot
  • Lethal: Frag
  • Field Upgrade: War Cry
  • Perk 1: Gung-Ho
  • Perk 2: Forward Intel
  • Perk 3: Double Time
  • Specialty: Enforcer
  • Perk Greed: Dexterity
  • Wildcard: Perk Greed

The Perk Greed Wildcard is one of the best wildcards because it gives you a fourth perk and easily acquires the Enforcer Specialty from the combo. The specialty gives increased movement speed and health regen for killing an enemy.

The three red perks to equip for it are Gung-Ho, Double Time, and Dexterity. All three improve movement while aiming and reloading for better reflexes on the field. The second perk can be Forward Intel, which offers a larger minimap and shows the direction of enemies when revealed. Although, Fast Hands is suitable to switch to your pistol faster in the heat of the moment.
