This is a personal little guide to what I think are the best weapons in each class of COD4. I will give specs, tips and a rating out of 100.

Melee: Knife. (no contest here) [no specs here]
a) Use when close up and have full clip.
b) Unless in HC, where it doesnt matter, you DONT show up on radar if you knife!
Rating: 86/100

Pistols: Deagle.
Power: High
Range: Medium
Rate of fire: Medium
Reload speed: 2-3 sec

a) This is a perfect backup weapon as it combines clip size and power!
b) good for snipers. Someone sneaks up, *bang!*
c) With stooping power perk, its a 1 shot kill in the chest.
Rating: 93/100

Assault Rifles: G36C
Power: Medium
Range: High
Rate of fire: Medium-High
Reload speed: 2-3.3 sec

a) A solid assault rifle, no tips really, just aim and fire.
Rating: 94/100

SMG: P90

Power: Low
Range: Medium
Rate of fire: HIGH!!!!!!!!
Reload speed: 3-3.5 sec

a) Voted by most as the best all-around weapon of the game.
b) As with Deagle, a perfect sniper backup. You have to get Overkill though. No sniping points, whip out the fav weapon and let rip!
Rating: 99/100

LMG: SAW

Power: Medium
Range: High
Rate of fire: So high planes dont go there!
Reload speed: 8-10 sec

a) Slight of Hand a must with this weapon and all LMG's. The reload speed is too high, but with SOH, you cut it in half!
b) Get "Grip" and Steady aim, go prne and its deadly accurate!
Rating: 79/100

Shotgun: W10002 (The pump one)

Power: High
Range: Low
Rate of fire: Low
Reload speed: 0.5 sec per shell

a) Its good, I personally have Overkill and put the M1021 shottie in as a backup. Just for fun.
b) Get a deagle or USP for this, its really worth it!
Rating: 84/100

Sniper: Barett 50. Cal

Power: HIGH!
Range: HIGH!
Rate of fire: Medium-High
Reload speed: 3-4 sec

a) Use it
b) Use it
c) USE IT!
Rating: 97/100

dude the 50 cal may be good but it takes no skill to use same with the P90 these may be good but there so easy to get kills with try using the R700 its the worst sniper but it takes skill to be good at it

Just one thing blaze, all the RPGs, bandoliers etc are perk 1! Marty = Perk 3! I think your 3s are 1 and vice versa!

I agree with celtuis. 50 cal is too easy. R700 is not and it needs skill.

P90 is the best weapon in the game to me. Carbine is good because it has like no recoil, but it is not very powerful.

Ehh. Not a fan of the P90. My K/D ration tends to fall to .5 a game when i use it...which is really bad for me, since i avg. 2k/d ratio.
I stick with M-4 M-16 G-36c Ak-74u and Barrett .50 cal

Im pretty mean with the dragunov, ive picked up a knack for it since prestige... m-16 is good... also love the ak74 with double tap... you get speed, and it takes ppl down fairly quickly, but you can get a good bit of range on it.
i tend to use overdrive alot, just because you can combine a sniper rifle with something more close quarters... i usually have a dragunov (blue tiger ATM) with claymores, overdrive, iron lungs, and my secondary weapon is a silenced ak74, or silenced m-16/g36c

M16 is shit tho. Well the gun aint shit, actualy the most overpowered gun ive ever seen but anybody who uses it is shit. I mean if you have to use a more newb gun then then noob tube then you must be desperate.

i would say the first sniper the M4A03 (I think its called) is the best. The best assualt rifle is the M16 with stoppping power its instant kills. Any of the LMG's are bad@ss. The shotgun i use the second one not the pump action cos normally wen u r that close u need to fire off quickly and the pump slows u down. For a submachine gun i like the mp5 with sleight of hand. Its very good if u get good with it. I got 400 points on the level on the ship with it once. Anyways thats what i think.

overkill is really the perk that kills the game. having a secondary weapon with a sniper rifel makes things way too easy. you should either choose to be a sniper and use a pistol or choose to be a close range fighter. you don't even need overkill to use both. what you do is you get an M14 and add a scope to it
p1. anything, I sugjust claymores
p2. stopping power
p3. steady aim
this way you can snipe when you want to and go close range if you want too and it still takes skill to do unlike when you use overkill.
