To start customizing your weapon in Active Matter, open your inventory (I) or head to the weapon wall in your safehouse and interact with it. Once the menu pops up, select the weapon you want to customize and right-click it. You’ll see several options there; choose “Modding”. This opens the full workbench view, where you can attach or remove parts like scopes, suppressors, magazines, and stocks.

Step-by-step Active Matter weapons customization setup:

  1. Open your inventory or the weapon wall screen.
  2. Select the weapon you want to tweak.
  3. Right-click the weapon to open the context menu.
  4. Choose Modding to enter the workbench.
  5. Pick a slot: barrel, scope, magazine, or stock.
  6. Click a mod to preview, then confirm to attach it.

One thing you should remember is that not every gun has the same slots. Pistols usually allow a suppressor and a larger mag, while rifles offer more room to tune.

If you want to do some quick adjustments, equip the weapon and click the gear icon on its item card. The quick-mod menu lets you attach parts fast, while the magazine slot sits just above that gear icon. In this menu, you can select auto-mod for each slot, which will speed up the process.

Where to Buy Weapon Mods in Active Matter

You can get Active Matter weapon mods during raids, but it’s often quicker to buy them. The shop in the game menu will provide you with the necessary equipment. To open it, open your menu (ESC or I), choose “Shop” from the top-left corner, then go to the “Weapon Mods” tab. There you’ll find all currently available modifications:

  • Scopes and collimators;
  • Stocks and cheeck pads;
  • Suppressors and silencers;
  • Magazines.

📌 Some of them rotate or become unlockable later, so try checking them out after some successful runs.

Additionally, you can acquire weapon mods for a desired weapon in a faster way. Open your inventory and right-click any gun that you want to buy mods for, and select “Buy Ammunition and Mods”. The shop will automatically narrow down the parts to fit that gun. It’s the quickest way to locate exactly what’s compatible with your setup.
