MK14

"Designed for the mobile marksman, the MK14 fire highly accurate, high damage single round shots. Two hits to the body and your target's a goner. Pace your shots and keep cool through fire to dominate as effectively as any full auto assault rifle."

- Call of Duty: Elite description

The  is a semi-automatic assault rifle that appears in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
The MK14 was first seen in concept art released by Activision. It was then seen in released videos of Modern Warfare 3 by Infinity Ward.

Singleplayer
The MK14 is Grinch's primary weapon in all Delta Force missions except "Bag and Drag", in which he uses a M4A1 instead.

Multiplayer
The MK14 is unlocked at Level 60 in Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer. It has a low capped rate of fire, but it has high power, as it kills with two hits to the chest or one headshot at close range, and 3 shots to the body at long range. It will also kill with 2 shots at range if one is a headshot. Considering that this rifle has one of the longest effective range of all assault rifles, most of the time it should only take 2 shots to drop a target. It's recoil is very controllable compared to the M14 from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, especially when combined with the Kick proficiency.

Due to its high damage and hipfire accuracy, it is often favored in Hardcore game modes as a makeshift sniper rifle if using the Attachments proficiency and equipping an ACOG Scope and Suppressor, as the silencer's range penalty is mitigated by the fact that it is still a one hit kill at all ranges in Hardcore mode, unless the target has a Ballistic Vest.

Rapid Fire has a unique effect on the MK14; because the weapon is semi-automatic, Rapid Fire simply raises the fire rate cap, allowing for marginally a faster fire rate. This can be useful in close quarters and when facing many enemies that need to be quickly dispatched; however, for most situations, it's not necessary.

Another unique part of this weapon is the Shotgun attachment. Equipping the Shotgun dramatically increases visual recoil when firing the rifle. The sights kick back heavily, making it much more difficult to accurately place follow up shots.

Survival Mode
The MK14 is available in Survival Mode from level 47 and costs $3000.
