MP7

The MP7 is a submachine gun featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3,Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3: Defiance and Call of Duty: Black Ops II.

Campaign
The MP7 is a weapon found frequently throughout the campaign, but is used only by the SAS. It eventually replaces the M9 as the secondary weapon.

Multiplayer
The MP7 is also featured in multiplayer, being a usable submachine gun for the Coalition faction from the start, being one of its three pre-unlocked weapons (the others being the MP5 and the M4). The MP7 has very low recoil and a high rate of fire as well as the clearest iron sights (almost identical to that of a pistol, though bigger); that coupled with a 40-round magazine make this gun the best to start with.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
"The MP7 performs as a middle option between the SMG and Assault Rifle classes. Clear iron sights, low recoil and a 40-round magazine allow you to tackle mid-range encounters without running for cover, and a good fire rate handles well in close quarters situations."

- Call of Duty: Elite description

The MP7 appears in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It can only be used in Special Ops and Multiplayer although it appears holstered by some S.A.S. members in "Mind the Gap".

Multiplayer
The MP7 is unlocked at level 74 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer, and is the last SMG unlocked. The MP7 features the second highest magazine capacity of 40 rounds, second only to the P90's 50 round magazine, and has a moderately high rate of fire as well as moderate power and very low recoil. It also has slightly higher damage at range compared to most SMGs, killing in five shots rather than six. All these features together allow the MP7 to be a reliable close combat weapon, as well as an effective long range weapon when needed. Its low recoil, high magazine capacity, and slightly higher damage at range makes it a SMG/Assault Rifle hybrid, with SMG handling and Assault Rifle versatility.

The MP7's iron sights are very clear, reducing the need for an optic, though its idle sway can certainly throw off the player's aim. As such, the proficiencies Stability or Range are recommended to either reduce sway or to make the shots that do connect more effective.

Special Ops
The MP7 is available for both Survival and Mission modes.

Mission Mode
The MP7 equipped with a Red Dot Sight is a starting weapon in the Mission Mode challenge Over Reactor.

Survival Mode
The MP7 is available in Survival Mode at level 13 and costs $2000. The MP7 is extremely effective, its high rate of fire and low recoil, added with the low level unlock makes it popular. Its large magazine is good for dispatching large amounts of enemies, as well as taking on Juggernauts. It has plenty of range making it comparable to an assault rifle. The MP7 remains effective up to the point where heavy commando troops armed with the FAD assault rifle arrive.

- Description.

The MP7 returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops II. It is equipped with a 40 round magazine by default and has higher recoil unlike its Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 counterpart. The MP7 in Call of Duty: Black Ops II has a grip, but unlike its Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 counterpart, it is folded unless the Foregrip attachment is equipped. The recoil is somewhat increased but still easy to handle, though attaching a Suppressor to the MP7 is still encouraged, as it stabilizes the recoil a bit and does not necessarily affect its already-high damage output. Adding a Foregrip will mitigate the recoil even further, but in lieu of mobility-based attachments, such as the Stock and the Quickdraw Handle, it is not necessary to combine it with the Suppressor.

Attachments

 * Reflex Sight (unlocked weapon level 2)
 * Laser Sight (unlocked weapon level 3)
 * Suppressor (unlocked weapon level 4)

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

 * The MP7 is one of the few weapons that are available in Special Ops but not in the campaign; others include the AS50, the Barrett .50cal, the Stinger and the M320 GLM.
 * The MP7's killfeed icon is more compressed compared to the pickup icon due to a scaling error in the weapon files.
 * Despite pre-release statements saying the MP7 had low damage, in game it kills with the same amount of bullets as other SMGs at close range, and actually takes fewer bullets to kill at longer ranges.
 * In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3: Defiance, the MP7's HUD icon looks more like the MP7 variant in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. However, the actual model of the gun looks more like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized's counterpart.
 * In Call of Duty ELITE it is said that Stability is unlocked for this weapon at Weapon Level 25, while it is actually unlocked at 28. MP7 is the only weapon with this trait.
 * When reloading, it is possible to notice that the magazine is completely solid. This is similar to the M16A4, and the L118A.
 * In Mobilized and Defiance, the player appears to hold the MP7's grip very loosely.
 * The Rapid Fire attachment on the MP7 has the least effect as it only increases rate of fire by 11% while other submachine guns and light machine guns with Rapid Fire have an increase of 23% to 33%.
 * What appears to be a flashlight is attached to the weapon's left side rail with the cord being held to the side of the gun with a piece of tape. This is purely asthetic, however, and serves no purpose in-game.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II

 * There is a small red 25 on the back of the MP7.
 * Reload time has been significantly decreased from its Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 counterpart (almost 50% when not empty) such that it reloads nearly as quickly as it would in Modern Warfare 3 with the Sleight of Hand perk equipped.
