The AMR Mod 4 sniper rifle arrived in Black Ops 6 as part of CODMAS content and it quickly became one of the best sniper options in the game. For all its merits, the weapon does have some drawbacks but they can be addressed using the right attachments.
There’s something about a classic high kick, semi-automatic sniper that players gravitate towards, especially if it can pull off one-shot kills. The AMR Mod 4 offers exactly that but you’ll contend with its clunky handling and high recoil.
To help mitigate some of these cons, here’s the best AMR Mod 4 class in Black Ops 6.
Best Black Ops 6 AMR Mod 4 class
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Commando Grip
- Laser: Strelok Laser
This AMR Mod 4 loadout improves the weapon’s handling, ADS speed, and boosts its bullet velocity for long-distance engagements.
In the muzzle slot, the Ported Compensator is the optimal choice as it reduces vertical recoil. This makes it a bit easier to line up consecutive shots without the aim reticle going wayward. Next up, we’ve gone with the Reinforced Barrel which boosts effective damage and bullet velocity.
The Extended Mag I attachment gives you a few extra shots, taking the sniper’s ammo capacity to eight per magazine. Lastly, the Commando Grip buffs the sprint to fire and ADS speed while the Strelok Laser improves the ADS accuracy. Both attachments make it easier for quickscope enthusiasts.
Best Perks, Equipment, and Wildcard for AMR Mod 4 loadout
- Wildcard: Perk Greed
- Perk 1: Gung-Ho
- Perk 2: Fast Hands
- Perk 3: Double Time
- Perk 4: Dexterity
- Field Upgrade: Trophy System
- Tactical Equipment: Stim Shot
- Lethal Equipment: Frag
For the Wildcard, we’ve opted for the extra Perk using Perk Greed but feel free to go with Gunfighter if you want to use another primary weapon. As for the Perks, Gung-Ho takes the first slot as it lets you reload while sprinting. Up next, we’ve got Fast Hands which boosts weapon swap speeds, a buff that can come in clutch when the sniper’s magazine runs out.
Double Time works well with most multiplayer classes as it increases the duration of tactical sprint. In the extra Perk slot, Dexterity is our pick as it reduces weapon motion while jumping, sliding, and diving.
Equipment choices can come down to personal preference, but the Trophy System usually works well with a sniper class. Stim Shots will give you an instant health boost to get you back in action, and a well-timed Frag is a good way to draw enemies out of cover or catch them by surprise.
AMR Mod 4 pros & cons
Where is the AMR Mod 4 in the BO6 meta?
While the weapon is still quite fresh, it looks to have cemented a place among the best snipers in Black Ops 6. It hits exceptionally hard and can be smooth to handle when equipped with the best attachments. The semi-automatic fire mode is also convenient for racking up kills on smaller maps like Nuketown.
Its biggest plus point is undoubtedly the one-shot kill potential. Shots above the waist have a high chance of downing enemies in a single shot, so your aim doesn’t have to be the most precise.
How to unlock the AMR Mod 4 in Black Ops 6
The AMR Mod 4 can be unlocked as part of Archie’s Festival Frenzy event. To get it, you’ll need to collect enough Jolly Archies to open all 12 presents in the Events tab. As a reward, you’ll receive the powerful sniper rifle.

Best alternatives
The best alternative for the sniper is the LR 7.62, which comes with a solid fire rate and can take down enemies in a single shot. Another option is the SVD, which offers excellent mobility but doesn’t hit as hard.
