"Full-auto assault rifle. High damage with slower rate of fire."
— In-game description

The Rampart 17 (stylized RMPRT-17) is an assault rifle featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. It was developed in Germany by the fictional manufacturer Kühn & Schmidt. It also has an MKII variant along with a Mastercraft variant.

Multiplayer[]

The Rampart 17 is a high damage assault rifle, killing in four to five shots. It has a low fire rate at 517 RPM, the slowest in the assault rifle category. It has moderately-high recoil, kicking upward and then from right to left. Due to these characteristics, the Rampart 17 is best suited to medium-range combat where its higher damage will give it an advantage over other guns.

While the Rampart can be effective at close or long range as well, its lower fire rate hampers close range ability and the moderately-high recoil will prevent effective long range use of the rifle.

As for general attachments, High Caliber will give the Rampart higher damage to the head and chest, allowing maximized damage potential reducing the number of hits needed to kill from four to three. FMJ also serve a similar purpose in maximizing the weapon's damage potential, albeit through different means; with FMJ equipped, a player will be able to more adequately shoot through cover as well as negate and destroy Armor.

Given the Rampart 17's higher damage figures in comparison to the rest of its class, it may make sense to select both levels of either the High Caliber or FMJ attachments.

Zombies[]

The Rampart 17 appears in the Zombies maps Voyage of Despair, IX, Blood of the Dead, Classified, Dead of the Night, Ancient Evil, Alpha Omega and Tag der Toten, where it's available as a weapon within the Mystery Box for 950 points.

When upgraded via Pack-a-Punch Machine, it becomes the Parapetrifier with the magazine size increased to 40 rounds and its ammo reserve increased to 440.

Attachments[]

The Rampart 17 has a targeted set of attachments, primarily focused on improved damage and stability. While the Rampart doesn't have a unique Operator Mod, it does have the High Caliber II variation.
