Unearthing Black Ops 6’s Overpowered Weapon: The AEK 973 Marksman Rifle
The latest installment in the Call of Duty franchise, Black Ops 6, has quickly caught the attention of gamers with its exceptional launch. However, it hasn’t been without its issues, including bugs and weapon balancing problems that players are eager to see resolved.
A New Revelation from a Former Pro Player
In the midst of these challenges, Tyler “TeeP”Polchow, a retired Call of Duty professional turned content creator, has highlighted one of the game’s lesser-used firearms that he claims is incredibly overpowered. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), TeeP showcased the AEK 973 Marksman Rifle and its surprising capabilities when configured correctly.
No clickbait this AEK Rapid fire is VERY busted. Extremely fast burst and can 1 burst consistently. 2-4x Scopes give 30% Gun kick control as well. Free nukes until they nerf enjoy Build at the end pic.twitter.com/KaLi7Ge1ok

Exceptional Performance in Combat
In the clip TeeP shared, he efficiently took down opponents with a single burst from the AEK 973, showcasing its potential even under enemy fire. He pointed out that when outfitted with any 2-4x Scope, the AEK benefits from an impressive 30% increase in gun kick control, significantly enhancing accuracy and reducing recoil.
TeeP described using this weapon as a gateway to “free nukes,” encouraging players to take advantage of this powerful option before developers implement necessary nerfs.
Unlocking the AEK 973
The AEK 973 becomes available to players at level 34 and excels in mid to long-range engagements. For those wanting to maximize its potential, TeeP has provided a detailed build that is designed to maximize its effectiveness:
- Optic: Jason Armory 2x
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Under Barrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Stock: Balanced Stock
- Fire Mods: Rapid Fire
Why the AEK 973 Stands Out
The key to TeeP’s configuration lies in the Rapid Fire modification, which significantly boosts the firing rate. Combined with the AEK’s already high damage output, this setup has proven lethal while maintaining acceptable accuracy levels.
Feedback from the community indicates that TeeP isn’t alone in recognizing the AEK as a top-tier weapon. Players have begun referring to it as their “secret weapon” or “hidden gem” within Black Ops 6.
