Before reading this post keep in mind
*Yes I realize DUBLCLUTCH made a post similar to this,but mine has detailed description's of every gun along with pictures
*much of the information is from Drift0rs videos on YouTube,Call of Duty wiki, and based on my own in game experience.

*there are many uses Acronyms and abbreviations
*MW2's in game Create-A-Class stats charts often lie about weapon and attachment traits
*If you found this informative or entertaining please say thanks


How Damage works

Each player has 100 health in an invisible meter
*With Painkiller activated the player has 300 health
Each gun has a max/min damage (example:40-20)
The farther away someone is the less damage a gun will do
All guns have set range and hit mulitplyers(this list does not include sniper rifles, each have a unique set of body multipliers)

Head=1.5x
Neck=1.3-1.2x
Chest=1x(normal damage)
Legs=1x

How Silencers Work

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
:!: Because silencers directly effect damage its only fitting they be explained here
What they do, in game
*Silencers make you not show up on the enemys radar
*Silencers effectivly eliminate muzzle flash
*Silencers DO NOT increase or decrease recoil

How they affect damage
*In a nutshell using a silencer reduce's a guns effective range(minimum damage)
*Silencers reduce damage by -10 for lmg's and by -20 for sniper's b/c they do not have a minimum range.
*With out Stopping Power it is safe to assume when using the silencer you are doing minimum damage,unless you are point blank.
*Using Stopping Power in conjunction with a silencer attachment on sniper rifles or LMGs will, for all intents and purposes, negate the other's effect on the weapon's damage.

Here's an example
The Scar H has a maximum damage of 40 and a minimum damage of 30

When you put a silencer on it you will reduce the damage to its minimum,that means you will always do 30 damage per shot at any range.

When we add Stopping Power into the mix this negates the effect of the silencer making the Scar do its base damage of 40-30 again/


Reload Time

*Slight of hand cut's reload time by about 50%, it seems to be even more effective on LMG's but that's just my opinion.
*It is faster to reload a partially loaded weapon compaired to a unloaded weapon.
*You can cheat the reload time on almost every gun,when reloading as soon as you see the remaining ammo number change from when u started reloading to the new remaining ammo count double tap Y or knife or sprint slightly. This will dramaticallty cut reload times.
*shotguns have a base reload time of 2.0-2.75s for the 1st shell and +0.75-0.9s for each additional shell

Most damage per shot assault rifle
Damage:50-35

*Can kill in 1 shot at anyrange w/SP
*less range than FAMAS,
*less recoil+ faster reload
*with holographic sight attached it has less recoil when ADS

ACR
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage:30-20
*Low damage means it will take multiple shots to kill
*Perfectly accurate at ANY range, at any rate of fire
*Similar to the m4 but sacrifices ROF for increased accuracy
*Because this gun has almost no recoil it is very overusedf in MP
*great candidate for thermal sights

F2000
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage:30-20
*Fastest firing Asult rifle
*Very bad recoil
*Effective at close to medium range
*Can do well at long range if u burst fire
*Red-Dot Sight emmune to EMPS
*If u aim in the upper chest area and fire, the gun will often kick up and get a headshot
*many players consider this the "worst" gun of the game

AK-47
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage: 40-30

*more predictable recoil than tar-21

Sub Machine Guns (SMG)

Attachments that affect SMG's
Rapid fire: Increases ROF by 33.333% or 1/3, but doubles recoil
Akimbo: Doubles your firepower,reduces hip fire accuracy by 50%,but using steady aim increases accuracy by 35%.

Mp5k
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage:40-20
*difficult to kill at long range
*high recoil and fast damage drop
*good for close situations
*at medium range the high recoil can work to players advantage due to the fact that the kill bullet will hit the head giving plenty of head shots
*The "k" stands for kurz, which means "short" in German

UMP 45
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage:40-35
*Guaranteed 3 hit kill w/SP at range or 2 hits at close range
*Ridiculously accurate
*Silencer tends to reduce recoil
when unsilenced it seem's easier to lay down more accurate suppressive fire

Vector
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage: 25-20
*It has the fastest ROF and lowest recoil of all SMG's
*Low damage is the guns biggest issue
*Moderate recoil and decent iron sights make it easy to use at range
*with Rapid fire equipped it is the fastest firing gun of the whole game
*Can kill in 1 hit w/SP in HC

P90
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage: 30-20
*large 50 round mag
*a single p90 has amazing hip-fire
*low recoil,good at close to medium range
*adding rapid fire can counter act the low damage and get more bullets hit
*there's a glitch with the Extended Mags attachment on the P90 that allows the player to sprint twice as much.This glitch doesn't work with any other attachments or weapons, but it does work with Bling.

Mini-Uzi
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Damage:30-20
*Slightly better than P-90 in every way ,except mag size
*Compared to the p90 it has faster reload, hoster and drop time
*Incredibly effective in close to mid-range combat
*Difficult to cheat the reload
*Has significantly less recoil than its counterpart in COD4
*I personally enjoy using a Bling'd Uzi with Thermal and silencer
