Best Peacekeeper Mk1 AR Loadout In Black Ops 7

Our best Peacekeeper Mk1 loadout focuses on maximizing the weapon’s strengths while improving areas that need a boost, particularly its relatively high recoil. With this setup, the gun performs well across most distances, excelling particularly in medium- to long-range fights.

Best Attachments For Peacekeeper Mk1 In Black Ops 7

Here are the best attachments for the Peacekeeper Mk1 AR in Black Ops 7 Multiplayer. This setup is designed to improve horizontal and vertical recoil control, extend damage range, and increase ammo capacity:

  • Optic: Lethal Tools Elo
  • Muzzle: K&S Compensator
  • Barrel: 23.5” Longbow Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Lateral Precision Grip
  • Magazine: Vulcan Reach Extension
  • Rear Grip: Kinetix-Mk 1 Grip
  • Fire Mod: Buffer Spring

The 23.5” Longbow Barrel extends the Peacekeeper Mk1’s damage range, making it one of the few attachments that boosts something other than recoil control. For better shot clarity, the Lethal Tools Elo Optic is one of the best choices, though you can swap it out for another optic if you prefer a different sight.

The remaining attachments: K&S Compensator, Lateral Precision Grip, Kinetix-Mk1 Rear Grip, and Buffer Spring Fire Mod, all work together to reduce both vertical and horizontal recoil as much as possible. This combination turns the Peacekeeper Mk1 into a laser beam.

The Vulcan Reach Extension increases magazine capacity, helping you avoid running out of ammo during extended engagements and allowing you to take down multiple enemies with a single mag.

Since this loadout uses seven of the eight attachment slots available with the Gunfighter Wildcard, you can round it out with either a Stock or Laser to better match your playstyle. Our recommendations are:

  • Laser: LTI Swiftpoint Laser (boosts ADS and sprint-to-fire speed, at the cost of a visible laser to enemies).
  • Stock: Swift-B Guard Stock (improves overall mobility, including hip-fire accuracy and strafing speed).
