Best GPMG-7 Loadouts and Class Guide in Black Ops 6

Crafting the best loadout in Black Ops 6 is essential to play at your best. For players looking to play slower and lock down lanes or objectives, the GPMG-7 is a hard-hitting choice for a weapon loadout.

The GPMG-7 is similar to older great LMGs in Call of Duty: a high fire rate, fully automatic rifle capable of handling nearly any combat range thanks to its good damage. These loadouts build on the gun's strengths: while it may not specialize in one specific area, in the right hands, it can compete with virtually any weapon in the game.

With the current meta and mapset in Black Ops 6, Assault & Marksmen Rifles are very powerful and can be effectively used on every map. Although that class is favored, each of the remaining weapon classes can shine with the right loadouts. It is vital to find the right attachments, perks, and equipment to allow you to shine on the map. Below, you’ll find the best GPMG-7 loadout in Black Ops 6, how to unlock it, and the ideal class setup to complement it.

How to unlock & how good is the GPMG-7 in Black Ops 6

The GPMG-7 is unlocked very late in the game's level progression. It is the final weapon to be unlocked in the LMG category, requiring players to progress to level fifty-two.

Available: Unlocked at Player Level 52

"Full-auto light machine gun. Unparalleled ability to quickly neutralize threats thanks to a blistering fire rate and suitable long-range damage."

The GPMG-7 is a good weapon within Black Ops 6 in the right positions. It has a great fire rate and bullet damage while having controllable recoil. The base weapon can four-shot kill requiring just body shots, as the headshot multiplier is negligible. This allows for less emphasis on aiming high to have a good time-to-kill, making it great for any player. Below are the complete weapon statistics for the weapon:

MAGS: 3

MAG SIZE: 50
