The MK46 is a light machine gun that appears in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Heroes. It was first revealed in the footage released during Call of Duty XP.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3[]
Campaign[]
Its first usable appearance is in "Bag and Drag", where it can be found in a GIGN armory, and is also carried by friendly non-playable characters. It also appears with a Foregrip in the mission "Dust to Dust", being used by Yuri, and also by Truck in "Scorched Earth".
Multiplayer[]
The MK46 is available in a default class with both a Grip and a Red Dot Sight, but is unlocked for Create-a-Class once level 54 is reached. It is also mounted on the Assault Drone point streak with a unique 50-round belt.
At any range short of 18.75 meters, the MK46 deals 40 damage per shot. Damage decreases linearly until 25 meters. At any range past 37.5 meters, the MK46 will deal 35 damage per bullet. This means that the MK46 will always be able to kill an opponent in 3 shots, and the MK46 is a one shot kill at all ranges in Hardcore game types. The MK46 has a two headshot kill range of about 34 1/2 meters, and both shots need to be headshots for it to reduce the shots needed to kill. The MK46 has high penetration power.
The MK46 fires fully automatically at a rate of 857 RPM.
The MK46 has recoil values of 60 to the left, 60 to the right, 50 upwards, and 30 downwards. The MK46 has a centerspeed value of 1700. The MK46 has the slowest idle sway of any LMG, but the amount of sway is large. Like all other LMGs, there is a very small amount of shot spread even when aiming down the sights.
The MK46 allows users to move at 80% of the base movement speed or strafe at 32% of the base movement speed. The MK46 aims down the sights in 400 milliseconds, and the MK46 has large hip-fire crosshairs. The MK46's reload animation is 8.67 seconds long. The user can Reload Cancel after 6.1 seconds.
The MK46 has a belt capacity of 100 rounds and a starting ammo loadout of 200 rounds.
The MK46 has the standard assortment of LMG attachments and weapon proficiencies available to it, and all of them work as intended on the MK46.
Due to a recent update, all light machine guns kill in a minimum of three bullets against a normal opponent unless shooting through cover.
The MK46 used to be a loadout in Infected, where it had the Kick Proficiency. The first infected in this game mode received a MK46 with Extended Mags. This loadout has since been removed from Public matches.
Special Ops[]
The MK46 is available in both Survival and Mission modes.
Mission Mode[]
The MK46 is an alternative weapon in the initial area of several Mission Mode missions, and a MK46 is in the underground armory in "Server Crash".
Survival Mode[]
The MK46 is available in Survival Mode at level 34 and costs $7000. Due to its high rate of fire, low recoil, and high damage, it is a very effective weapon. Sleight of Hand is highly recommended, as with all light machine guns.
