The GP-25 is an underbarrel grenade launcher featured in many games of the Modern Warfare, as well as in Call of Duty: Black Ops, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Call of Duty Online and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare & Modern Warfare Remastered[]
- "Grenade Launcher attachment for assault rifles."
- — Attachment description
Campaign[]
It is an attachment featured on the AK-47 Grenadier used by the Loyalists, OpFor, and the Ultranationalists during the Singleplayer Campaign. Sergeant Kamarov is featured using this weapon. There is an AK-74u in "F.N.G." that can be seen with a GP-25, however, it is completely unusable.
Multiplayer[]
This is an attachment for the AK-47 assault rifle, which is available from the start, although rank 4 is required to make a custom class that uses the weapon. As previously mentioned, it is indistinguishable from the M203 attachment in function and damage. However, it has a significantly faster switch time than the M203, in exchange for a slightly longer reload time; however this is easily negated when used with Sleight of Hand.
The majority of servers and players look down upon the use of grenade launchers as they are extremely effective and require minimal finesse to attain kills. It has earned the nickname "noob tube" and is referred to as such almost exclusively, even by players who use the attachment. Like the M203, it can be used to attain the challenge "Ouch" by directly hitting and killing an enemy player within the minimum range, which does not trigger the explosive fragmentation, but simply impacts the target, causing an instant death.
In Modern Warfare Remastered, the GP-25's reloading animation has been altered: it is no longer flicked to eject a spent casing.
Old School Mode[]
The GP-25 appears in Old School Mode as an attachment for AK-47s found in sprites on certain maps. The ammunition counts for the GP-25 remain constant from normal multiplayer.
- Chinatown - Found in front of the construction site near the fish market and the grassy area, near the Mini-Uzi.
- Killhouse - Found on the top of the southern structure.
- Showdown - Found in the center courtyard.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2[]
Campaign[]
The GP-25 returns in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Like in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, it is still only usable on the AK-47. It is similar to the M203 in damage and effect. Unlike the M203 in which the grenade compartment slides forward to accept/release a grenade shell, the GP-25 simply has a hole in front, which the user snaps his wrist to release a spent grenade, and drops in a fresh one, called muzzle loading.
Multiplayer[]
The GP-25 is only available for the AK-47. It has slightly longer reload but slightly faster swap-to when compared to the M203 grenade launcher, but is otherwise the same. When equipped, it gives the AK-47 leaf sights, although they are unusable.
Call of Duty: Black Ops[]
Campaign[]
The GP-25 returns as the AK47's and Galil's grenade launcher. It is commonly available throughout the campaign. The GP-25 is featured in many missions involving the Soviet Union.
Multiplayer[]
The GP-25 is an attachment available for the AK47 and for the Galil at the cost of 3000. It has slightly longer reload but slightly faster swap-to when compared to the M203 grenade launcher, but is otherwise the same.
This attachment cannot be used with the perk Warlord, like all other under-barrel attachments. Its grenades are not replenished by the Scavenger perk and there are no explosive damage increasing perks like Danger Close, Fireworks, or Sonic Boom. It also cannot be used for the first 5 seconds of the start of a round, to prevent players from shooting grenades across the map at the enemy spawn point, which applies for all grenade launchers.
Zombies[]
The GP-25 is unusable in zombies. However, in the poster for Call of the Dead, Michael Rooker can be seen holding an AK47 with the GP-25 attached.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3[]
The GP-25 was first seen in the Survival trailer mounted on an AK-47. Like in the previous games it is used on the AK-47 as its own unique Grenade Launcher. It is exactly the same as the other grenade launchers in terms of damage and range, with a faster switch time in exchange for a slightly slower reload.
Multiplayer[]
The GP-25 is available for the AK-47 upon reaching level 8, along with the other assault rifles. Scavenger does not resupply grenades, however, running over a dropped weapon that has the GP-25 equipped will give the player 1 grenade.
Survival Mode[]
The GP-25 grenade launcher is available in Survival Mode at level 28 and costs $1500. The GP-25 can only carry 2 grenades, instead of the usual 11 in the campaign and Mission Mode.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II[]
Campaign[]
The GP-25 returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops II, where it can be mounted on the AN-94, the AK47 and the Galil.
Multiplayer[]
The GP-25 is available for the AN-94 is upon reaching weapon level 16.
Trivia[]
- Interestingly, while the in-game model for the GP-25 differs from the M203, they both use the same menu icon.
Call of Duty: Black Ops: Declassified[]
The GP-25 is available for the AK-47 and the Galil.
Call of Duty Online[]

It can fire six types of 40mm ammunition: High-explosive, Incendiary, Concussive, Flash, Smokescreen and Recon.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II & Modern Warfare III[]
- "A 40mm underbarrel grenade launcher designed for infantry use. Fires an explosive grenade that explodes on impact."
- — Descriprion
The GP-25 returns in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II as the KL40-M2. It can be attached to the Kastov 762 and Kastov 545 assault rifles, and to the KV Broadside shotgun. Two variants of the launcher are available: the KL40-M2 and the KL40-M2 Drill.
It is also available in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III where, in addition to the aforementioned weapons, it can be mounted on the SVA 545. This assault rifle can only mount the regular KL40-M2, as the Burrow 500 Drill Charge takes the place of the drill launcher for it.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6[]
The GP-25 returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Trivia[]
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare[]
- When the GP-25 is attached, a small part of the grenade launcher is visible to the right of the iron sights. This is the quadrant sight for accurately aiming the grenade. Also, the AK-47's maximum reserve ammo in campaign increases from 300 to 308.
- It has the Russian Tula Arsenal logo on the front of the launcher just ahead of the gas block's bayonet lug.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2[]
- During the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 reveal trailers the M203 was used as a place holder for the GP-25. This can also be seen on the Sniper Fi loading screen.
- Oddly enough, in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, if the AK-47 Grenadier is equipped, you can see it slightly tilts right
- It has the Russian Tula Arsenal logo on the front of the launcher just ahead of the gas block's bayonet lug, this can be best seen when reloading it.
