Unlocking Mustang & Sally in Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Complete Guide

In the Call of Duty community, the Mustang and Sally is a legendary weapon, and players can once again acquire these explosive pistols in Black Ops 6 Zombies.

No Zombies mode would be complete without a plethora of Easter eggs and hidden references, and Black Ops 6 certainly meets expectations. Both Terminus and Liberty Falls are filled with secrets, ranging from key story elements to side quests and Easter eggs just waiting to be discovered.

As a homage to the original Black Ops, players can obtain the cherished Mustang and Sally pistols, now rebranded as Sally and Forth.

Unlocking Sally & Forth in BO6 Zombies

To get your hands on Mustang and Sally in Black Ops 6 Zombies, you will need to Pack-a-Punch Akimbo GS45 Pistols. Even though they are referred to as Sally and Forth this time, fans will quickly recognize these dual handguns that launch explosive shots, effectively taking out numerous zombies with each pull of the trigger.

There are specific steps you must follow before reaching the final Pack-a-Punch. Here’s a detailed guide on the process:

Achieve Level 28 to unlock the GS45 Pistol.
Utilize the weapon until it reaches Level 31 to unlock the Akimbo attachment.
Set the Akimbo GS45s as your primary weapon in your Zombies loadout.
Collect 5,000 Essence.
Use your Essence to Pack-a-Punch the Akimbo GS45s to obtain Sally and Forth.

Unlocking the GS45

Your first task is to unlock the GS45 itself, which you can achieve at Level 28. This shouldn’t take an excessive amount of time, especially if you are focused on multiplayer modes. Even as a dedicated Zombies player, you should reach this level with a few hours of gameplay.

It’s important to note that you can also purchase a GS45 from the wall in both Liberty Falls and Terminus, even if you haven’t achieved the required rank yet. However, Pack-a-Punching will only grant you Sally and deliver reduced damage from the weapon.

Earn the Akimbo Attachment & Add It to Your Loadout

Next, use the GS45 until reaching Level 31 to acquire the Akimbo attachment. This upgrade allows you to wield a pistol in each hand, which is essential to obtaining Mustang and Sally.

After this, select the Akimbo pistols as your primary weapon in your Zombies loadout. Doing so means you’ll spawn with them at the start of your match. While solely using pistols may make accruing Essence a bit tougher initially, this decision will pay off in the long run.

Using the Pack-a-Punch

The final step involves using the Pack-a-Punch to transform the pistols into Sally and Forth, Black Ops 6’s equivalent of Mustang and Sally. This process is identical to how you upgrade any weapon in Zombies, by locating the Pack-a-Punch machine in either map.

On Liberty Falls, you’ll find it in the church at the hilltop, while in Terminus, it starts in the underground lab and later moves to the surface. The cost for the initial upgrade is 5,000 points, which is all you need for the Mustang and Sally variant. The following two Pack-a-Punch upgrades will enhance their power.

Understanding Mustang and Sally in Call of Duty

If you’re new to CoD Zombies or are unsure why there’s so much excitement surrounding this weapon, it’s crucial to know that Mustang and Sally were a formidable weapon in the Zombies mode of the original Black Ops. Similar to Sally and Forth in BO6, they were dual pistols that fired explosives, making them one of the most powerful guns in the game.

The key to unlocking them involved using the Pack-a-Punch on the M1911, the starting pistol for all players at the game’s beginning. This challenge required players to survive utilizing just a handgun until the later waves, with the rewarding outcome of an upgraded weapon that was devastatingly effective.

While Black Ops 6 allows players to choose any primary weapon at the start, the inclusion of this classic weapon is a delight for long-time fans.
