BO7 Endgame Wiki

SMGs

Submachine guns in BO7 Endgame are fast-handling weapons built for close-quarters engagements. All SMGs support Melee Reload, which triggers an instant magazine refill after a melee strike. The Razor 9mm departs from this pattern and uses a distinct bonus set centered on speed and sustained fire. The CBRS-3, added in Season 4, also carries Longshot alongside its other traits. Three SMGs have named exotic versions: Backdrive (Dravec 45), Swarmforge (MPC-25), and Barrage (Razor 9mm).

Utility Bonus Availability

Section titled “Utility Bonus Availability”

The VST, Kogot-7, Ryden 45K, RK-9, Carbon 57, and MPC-25 all share Melee Reload, Ultra-light, Combat Ready, and From the Hip. The CBRS-3, added in Season 4, carries Melee Reload, Combat Ready, From the Hip, and Longshot. The REV-46 and Sturmwolf 45 drop Melee Reload in favor of Longshot, and the Dravec 45 swaps From the Hip for Longshot while keeping Melee Reload. The Razor 9mm stands apart from every other SMG with a completely unique set: Ultra-light, Fast Fire, Ammo Recharger, and Kill and Run.
