Upcoming Best X9 Maverick Loadout In Black Ops 7

With the rapid-fire pacing of Black Ops 7, fully-automatic weapons have been hogging the spotlight. It's time to accept the truth: You've all been sleeping on the X9 Maverick, and the best X9 Maverick loadout in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will help you dominate lobbies from a safe distance.

This three-round burst assault rifle needs a little bit of love since it starts out fairly weak without attachments, but it rewards dedication with incredible recoil control and solid damage. You can even start grinding for this X9 Maverick loadout early on since the gun is unlocked at level 28.

Here's the build code so you can import it into your game: A04-B6JJB-9EM33-1. Just open the loadout menu, select the X9 Maverick, and select the little gun icon next to the "create new build" button.

I know what you're thinking—that's a lot of attachments. You're right, because the X9 Maverick goes crazy with the Gunfighter Wildcard. Zero recoil, excellent range, you want it, you got it.

The 16" OS-Density Barrel is the cornerstone of this build. It increases the magazine capacity to a whopping 51 bullets while also reducing vertical recoil. The gun reloads a bit slower, but with over 50 bullets, you'll have more than enough rounds to buy time until you get a safe moment.

Paired with the Novaburst Brake and Granulated OM1 Grip, both of which reduce first shot recoil, the X9 Maverick becomes a bonafide laser beam. To completely eliminate the chances of recoil, the Specter-X Guard Stock boosts stability even further.

The EAM Steady-90 Grip helps out with recoil too, but it's really there to give you a bit more mobility and movement speed to compensate for the other attachments' tradeoffs.

All those stability improvements are necessary to offset the penalties of the Bolt Carrier Group, another key part of this build. This attachment boosts the X9 Maverick's fire rate, reducing the odds of you getting killed in between bursts.

Honestly, you can ignore the 3MW Motion Strike Laser if you really don't want to broadcast your position to enemies, but the boost to range and recoil stabilization is so nice to have. At least the laser is only visible in ADS. Just don't hold angles for too long and you'll be fine.
