Best Marine SP loadout in Black Ops 6 beta

As an experienced gamer who’s been through countless Call of Duty iterations, I must say that the Black Ops 6 beta has caught my eye with its unique offerings, and none more so than the Marine SP Shotgun. Now, shotguns aren’t typically the go-to weapon for many, but this one is a different beast altogether, especially when equipped with the right attachments.


In Call of Duty, shotguns may not be the preferred choice for many players, but when armed with the optimal attachments, the Marine Specialist in Black Ops 6 can become an unstoppable force to reckon with.

Even though it’s still in its beta phase, there are numerous choices available to pick from. Some players have been favoring the meta SMGs and ARs, while others have been exploring all the character classes. The Marine’s Shotgun is an excellent selection for Strike maps like Pit, so here’s our recommended setup for it.

Best Black Ops 6 Marine SP loadout attachments

  • Muzzle: Full Choke
  • Barrel: Long Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
  • Stock: Combat Stock
  • Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

This optimal Black Ops 6 Marine Specialist loadout primarily enhances mobility, damage range, and hip-fire precision. The ‘Full Choke’ attachment specifically boosts hip-fire effectiveness with the Shotgun.

The Long Barrel enhancement offers a dual advantage: it boosts the magazine’s ammunition capacity and extends the effective shooting distance for situations where you might need your Shotgun to work effectively beyond close proximity.

Up next, I’ve opted for the Ranger Foregrip to enhance your running speed and agility, simultaneously decreasing the horizontal kickback during rapid consecutive shots. The Combat Stock is added to boost mobility even more, enabling swifter shooting from sprinting, sliding, and diving animations.

To sum up, the Rapid Fire mode enhances the rate at which rounds are reloaded into the chamber, enabling quicker firing of shots.

Best Perks & Equipment to use with Marine SP

  • Perk 1: Assassin
  • Perk 2: Gung-Ho
  • Perk 3: Double Time
  • Wildcard: Overkill
  • Lethal: Frag Grenade
  • Tactical: Stim Shot
  • Field Upgrade: Assault Pack

To maximize the effectiveness of shotguns, it’s essential to be near your target. With this in mind, we’ve opted for Perks that enhance your movement speed, allowing you to swiftly approach your adversary without much difficulty.

The Assassin feature allows you to spot enemies with active killstreaks on the mini-map, enabling you to strategize your next action for defeating them.

In simpler terms, “Gung-Ho” allows for reloading and equipment usage during movement without incurring heavy penalties, whereas “Double Time” significantly boosts the duration of Tactical Sprint, enabling quicker movement towards close combat situations.

In this case, we chose the “Overkill” Wildcard to allow for a longer range weapon like the XM4 or the LR 7.62 Sniper Rifle when using the Shotgun.

Regarding the equipment, it’s hard to make a mistake with a reliable Frag; meanwhile, the Stim Shot not only refills your Tactical Sprint but also starts health recovery, making it easier to navigate through situations swiftly. Lastly, the Assault Pack is beneficial as it allows you to replenish ammo and equipment, particularly useful when you’re on a killing spree and find yourself low on stimulants.

How to unlock Marine SP in Black Ops 6 beta

In the Black Ops 6 beta, I was thrilled to discover that the Marine SP Shotgun is an instant reward! To get my hands on custom loadouts, I just needed to reach Level 4, and there it was – the Marine SP Shotgun at my disposal!

Essentially, you should try to use your gun extensively to boost its level and unlock the finest accessories available.

Best Marine SP alternatives

In the beta, the Marine Special Shotgun is currently the sole shotgun available. Since there’s no other shotgun to compare it to, the Jackal Personal Defense Weapon (PDW) and the C9 Submachine Gun (SMG) are exceptional choices due to their impressive performance in close-quarters combat.
