M1927

The M1927, also known as the Tommy Gun in an early trailer, is a submachine gun featured in the Zombies mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Call of Duty: Black Ops III.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II
The M1927 can be found on Mob of the Dead for 1500 points to purchase on the wall at the far end of the docks. In the Grief map Cell Block and in Origins it can be obtained from the Mystery Box. The weapon is effective due to the high rate of fire (which increases to a point the longer the trigger is held), 50 round magazines, a large maximum ammo capacity, and swift reload time which makes it more effective for the later rounds. Due to the already-high rate of fire, Double-Tap II is not necessary, but doubles damage and makes for a weapon that is effective even when not Pack-A-Punched up to high rounds. With the relatively fast reload time, Speed Cola is not a necessity, but recommended with Double-Tap II. Electric Cherry can be less effective without Double-Tap II, as the large ammo capacity and lower ammo consumption often leads to reloading before the clip is emptied, which does not have as large of an effect as an empty reload. A combination of Double-Tap II and Deadshot Daiquiri can make the M1927 lethal in higher rounds.

In Mob of the Dead, The M1927 faces competition from the other SMG's on the wall, namely the MP5 and Uzi, due to their availability (in two and three locations respectively), and, in the MP5's case, lower price. The M1927's only wall location is at the docks, has a high chance of getting the player trapped due the wall and nearby barrels, and ammo costs 800 points rather than 750. However, it has the third largest magazine size (tied with the PDW-57, behind the LSAT and Death machine) and third highest overall ammo capacity of any default gun (behind the Death Machine and LSAT), and has a faster reload than most other guns in the map.

In Origins, the M1927 is not as useful as it was in Mob of the Dead, due to it being a box weapon rather than a wall weapon. While it still retained its other perks, it is somewhat outclassed by the MP40, as it is readily available due to its wall weapon status and availability in three locations, despite not having as much ammo upon purchase.

Overall, the M1927 is most effective when used by those who stay moving, as the large clip, short reload and high mobility allow it to be used when on the run.

When Pack-a-Punched via the Pack-a-Punch Machine, it becomes the Speakeasy. It gains a larger ammo capacity and slightly higher damage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III
The M1927 is available from the Mystery Box in the Zombies map Revelations, and can also be bought off of a wall in the Der Eisendrache area after an easter egg involving hidden chalk messages around the map is completed. It has the same capacity as its Black Ops II counterpart, but has a slightly faster fire rate and reload speed.

The Pack-a-Punched version also has differences from the Black Ops II counterpart, as it now becomes the Untouchable, and bears a 100-round magazine with 500 rounds in reserve.

 * The markings on the side of the gun call it a "CTFA M1921" as opposed to the M1927 name in-game.
 * Before an unspecified patch, the HUD icon displayed when approaching the M1927 chalk drawing shows the Skorpion EVO instead of the M1927 itself.
 * "Speakeasy" is a reference to the establishments that sold alcohol illegally during the prohibition era, as they were nicknamed "Speak-easies".

Call of Duty: Black Ops III

 * The Chalk icon lacks the drum magazine.
 * The M1927 does not have a wall running animation
