Season 1 of Black Ops 6 is in full swing, and with so many camouflages to unlock, inspecting weaponry is the best way to see which designs suit your gun the best.

Compared to past releases, the process of inspecting a weapon in Black Ops 6 has changed slightly.

Thankfully, we've got all the intel you need to take a closer look at the extensive weapon arsenal on this page.

If you're using a controller or a mouse and keyboard, the process of inspecting your weapon in Black Ops 6 is incredibly straightforward.

Depending on your input, follow the steps below for a closer look at a primary or secondary weapon on the virtual battlefield.

Console

That's all there is to it. Previous games have immediately triggered the inspect animation by holding left on the D-Pad, but the return of emotes has added a small step to the process.

Wait a few seconds for the animation to play out, and you'll return to the normal stance.

PC

Similar to the controller, inspecting weapons on the PC version of Black Ops 6 is just as straightforward.

After a few seconds, the animation will stop, allowing you to continue playing the game.

We recommend finding somewhere quiet on the maps before taking a closer look at a weapon, as the animation will leave you vulnerable to enemy attacks.
