Cyberpunk 2077 – How to Attach Mods, Scopes, and Silencers
Cyberpunk 2077 has plenty of weapons for you to gather, and I know you may want to attach different mods and scopes to them.
This process I found to be slightly confusing at first so the article will take you through how to attach silencers, scopes, and more to weapons in Cyberpunk 2077.
How to Attach Scopes and Silencers in Cyberpunk 2077
To attach scopes and silencers, open up your inventory and then locate where your currently equipped weapons are. Select one of your weapons that you would like to attach scopes or silencers to. Some weapons will not have attachment slots but there will either be a “Muzzle” slot, a scope slot, or both. For silencers, you need to select the open muzzle slot and you can attach one from there. Likewise, if you would like to add a scope, select the open scope slot, and then you can put on a scope.

A quick way to tell which weapons will let you attach a scope or muzzle is to look at the small icons in the bottom-right corner of weapons in your inventory. If a certain icon is present (scope or muzzle) then that means you will have those attachment slots for that weapon. if there is none of those, it means no scope or muzzle can be equipped.
Can You Put a Silencer on Skippy?
Skippy cannot have a silencer attached to it at all, this is because of the fact it is a Smart weapon. Both Tech and Smart weapon types I have noticed won’t take any silencers but they sometimes can have scopes added. However, Skippy doesn’t have any attachment slots as part of what you can upgrade so you will be out of luck in adjusting the weapon majorly.
Nonetheless, once you have acquired Skippy, it is going to become a likely constant in your arsenal thanks to its powerful but also humorous nature. The pistol actually talks to the player at points making it a brilliant novelty-like pick. I would recommend that you go and get Skippy at some point during your journey.
How to Install Weapon Mods in Cyberpunk 2077
Attachments can be swapped in and out as you need, but mods are one-time use upgrades for a weapon, perfect for certain builds. The method to attach a mod is the same as above. Here’s how to install weapon mods in Cyberpunk 2077 without much hassle. Just open your inventory, navigate to the weapons, and select the gun you want to attach mods to. Look at the “Mods” section and select the open slot to bring up the menu.

In the new menu, you will see all of your available gun mods. Scroll through and pick which one works best for this weapon, but keep in mind that you can’t remove it later. Otherwise, it’s the same as the attachments we explained above. The item will upgrade your weapon with whatever stat or effect it describes. Just be sure to not slap a mod onto any of your early guns, since you’ll probably find better stuff later on.
Can You Stack Weapon Mods in Cyberpunk 2077?
Weapon mods can be stacked and stacking mods such as Crit Chance or Crit Damage will prove to be highly beneficial. If you want to maximise your build to the greatest degree taking advantage of this is always worthwhile. Although, as mods can’t be removed, be sure you’re making the correct choices for what you’re personally looking for from a weapon.
