P99


 * For a similarly named weapon, see P90

The P99 is a pistol featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
The P99 was first seen in footage released during the Call of Duty XP event, with a suppressor and a titanium-coated slide, as well as a dark-gray synthetic grip.

Campaign
The P99 is used by Yuri when breaking into Makarov's fortress; this variant of the P99 has both a Silencer and Tactical Knife, called "P99 Tactical". Yuri also used one in a flashback, when attempting to stop the Zakhaev International Airport massacre.

Multiplayer
The P99 is unlocked at level 11 in Multiplayer and has the highest firecap for any handgun at 1200 RPM. It also features the highest damage up close of any of the low caliber handguns (the other two being the USP .45 and the Five Seven) but still kills in three shots up close as the others. It also features the same recoil, which is quite controllable.

Survival Mode
The P99 is the last handgun unlocked in survival mode. Its high damage of 49, while not noticable in multiplayer as it comes just short of a 2-hit kill, is quite noticable in Survival where enemies frequently have much higher health. This makes it one of the more effective low-caliber handguns, but it should discarded during later waves.

Attachments

 * Suppressor
 * Extended Mags
 * Tactical Knife
 * Akimbo

Trivia

 * On the left side of the gun, the words "P99 TITANIUM COATED" are visible.
 * The P99, Five Seven, and MP412 are the only handguns held with one hand in Modern Warfare 3.
 * It shares a similar reload with the ASP, where the players takes the magazine out and puts a new one in with one hand. The G36C also shares this trait.
 * If players use the Akimbo attachment in multiplayer, the left P99 will make a different sound than the right P99 when fired.
 * The P99 has the same firing sound of the Five Seven.
 * It should be noted that when used with a suppressor, the iron sights become somewhat difficult to use, due to the fact that the suppressor rises up over the sights.
 * It is used by Yuri in a flashback, when attempting to stop the Zakhaev International Airport massacre. This is strange because the P99 does not appear in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, or because the M9 (used by airport security forces in "No Russian"), didn't appear in Modern Warfare 3.
 * When using the Tactical knife attachment, the reload animation changes sightly.
