In addition to the stock standard weaponry available in-game. Black Ops 2 also gives you a few options with which to further customise your weapons. These come in the form of weapon attachments and by equipping them, they can alter your weapons to suit your playstyle.

Attachments can increase rate of fire, add scopes or suppressors, increase the base stats of the weapon they are associated with and even let you dual wield pistols so they are definitely worth checking out!
