MP7 and MP5 in Warzone: Which gun is better

While assault rifles often dominate battle royale, some Warzone gamers are realizing the potential power of SMGs. They are MP7 and MP5- but which one is better in Call of Duty’s battle royale title?

Verdansk is currently all M4A1 or Garu when it comes to AR. However, SMGs can be extremely useful in Warzone, with MP5 and MP7 standing out the most. This creates a debate about which is the better and more usable gun.

MP5 certainly dominates in Modern Warfare multiplayer, but players are now realizing MP7 is equally competitive in Warzone. This article will analyze the important stats and give advice on which guns you should use in Verdansk.

MP5 vs MP7: Time to finish the opponent

1. MP5 = 144ms (vs unarmored opponent)/504ms (armored opponent)
2. MP7 = 186ms (vs unarmored opponent)/558ms (armored opponent)

This is one of the first things players will look at, but you need to be aware that these numbers fluctuate quite a bit. They depend on the maximum damage range of each gun, as well as whether you hit 100% of all shots.

With the MP7, which has a faster rate of fire and less recoil, it is easy to make up for missed shots from the MP5. Therefore, the accuracy of the MP7 can compensate in some gunfights.

MP7 and MP5 Accuracy, Range and Damage

The MP5 is definitely the more recoil of these two guns, especially since it doesn’t have a barrel to stabilize the recoil. This is in contrast to the MP7, which recoils less despite its faster rate of fire.

While the MP7’s rate of fire is faster (968 RPM vs 833 RPM for the MP5), its damage from a distance is lower. Therefore, if you hit all the shots, the MP5 is a better choice in almost any range. However, this is just an “assumption”. You can see the details of the firing range from the image below, shared by YouTuber XclusiveAce.

Attachment for MP7 and MP5

With the MP7, you’ll definitely want to attach the Monolithic Suppressor and the FSS Recon, both of which increase damage and range significantly. Barrel will also reduce the recoil greatly, although the ADS time is slowed down. Also, with the MP7, you probably don’t need to mount the Extended magazine (extra magazine), because the gun defaults to 40 rounds per magazine.

It’s 10 more pills than MP5, default only 30 pellets per tape. Similarly, MP5 doesn’t have a barrel to reduce recoil, so you have to add a Foregrip (Merc). However, Monolithic Integral Supressor can save this part.

Besides, you will most likely need optic for MP5 because the recoil gun and iron sight are quite limited. However, due to the size of the map Verdansk, optic for MP7 can help you hit more.

So which gun should you use? MP7 or MP5

Finally, the article will give you advice on which gun to use, as well as why to use it. MP7 is like the child between AR and SMG thanks to its large magazine and more controllable recoil.

While MP7 damage is reduced at long range, the FSS Recon and Monolithic Supressor still give you enough power to use it at mid range. On the other hand, the MP5 is much better at close range, but will struggle at mid and further ranges.

So, your decision depends on the gameplay and what other guns you have. If using Sniper Rifle as a second gun, the article recommends MP7 because it is more mobile. If your second weapon is an AR, the article recommends choosing MP5 to add power at close range.
