    how accurate are these "actual damage stats" and where do they come from? i need some proof cuz other than that it's hoopla to me. not takin anything away from u.
    mini-uzi is my favorite. i have a run and gun class based around the uzi and i love it. the uzi has a pretty big clip and a crazy firing rate. when u equip it with steady aim pro and marathon pro/slight of hand pro, u can just literally run around and gun ppl down. u won't have to aim down yur sight unless the target is far away. the thing is very deadly when u know how to spray with it. it produces massive headshots for, and is actually kinda nostalgic to me. kinda brings me back to the days when i got bored and owned ppl with the uzi on counter strike. :D
    p90 just seems more inaccurate cuz of it's crazy firing rate. that's why it's not ideal to use it in a long range gunfight. up close tho, the thing is deadly cuz it can empty 50 rounds on u in a matter of seconds. the crazy firing rate is what makes the gun recoil upwards.
    i actually replaced my uzi for an AK in my run and gun class. yeah, it's a bit slower but the extra bullet damage, range, and ammo more than make up for it. the AK is almost as accurate as the uzi during hip fire with steady aim pro. u just can't really spray it like the uzi, u gotta burst fire some. now i can take out long range targets as i run and gun. ;)
    lol, i actually prestiged as soon as i hit lvl 70. the reason for that was i knew it was gonna be hard to let go of the AK once i started gettin used to it. :p

    I've been experimenting with various classes after having used most assault rifles, LMG, and sniper rifles. I think akimbo P90 + marathon/lightweight/steady aim is my favorite. It beats running around and knifing because it's a pain to get the tactical knife (or to kill anyone with a pistol in general), and with dual SMG you can kill from such a distance that opponent's shotguns will not harm you. Right now I'm trying to get akimbo on Uzi and UMP45, and trying to see how those two guns perform when I have two of them. I think UMP will be the most ideal, but I have yet to do more experiment. I'm leaning towards UMP because you can actually see the camouflage patterns on it. Uzi too but it looks weird :D

    And I don't know how exactly to spray with akimbo, but I have gotten more headshots with the P90 with only 180 kills than I have with M4 with 500+ kills. With P90, I just prone, pull up the gun, and let the recoil do the work. Share your secrets?

    Houstoned: there's a chart of all weapon stats floating around the internet, a quick Google search will bring it up. From what I hear it has something to do with extracting data from a certain game file. I can't verify it myself, but the numbers seem spot on judging from what I've noticed in-game.

    AGP: play HC Team Deathmatch to level up pistols and get the tactical knife attachment. I got the tac knives for the M9, .44 Magnum and Desert Eagle in one day doing that, and I'll probably do the same for the USP .45 today. The .44 and Desert Eagle are pretty much always one-hit kills, and the M9 and USP are usually 1-2 depending on location.

    According to the chart, UMP does 35-40 damage while P90 only does 20-30... Not sure if that's accurate, 3 P90 bullets = 1 kill I think... And bullets to the body does the same damage as bullets to the limbs with all guns except sniper rifles? :confused: :confused:

    Silly comment.. If you are bad at saying anything insightful I'm sure it's great, though.

    I think this is good advice for beginning players.
    I've been playing ever since it came out, but haven't had much time so I'm not much good yet. Was very good in COD 2 though :p oldskool FTW
