Item from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III by Infinity Ward / Activision
The standard-bearer of the MW3 arsenal — an American assault rifle that is Price's preferred platform and the most recognizable weapon in the franchise.
The M4A1 is the franchise's signature weapon — every Call of Duty player has used one, and in the MW3 continuity it remains the platform that Price, Ghost, and Soap reach for when the loadout isn't specified. It's accurate at range, controllable in close quarters, and reliable in every environment the 141 operates in. Ghost's version uses the Lachmann suppressor. Price's version has the M19 optic. Soap's varies by mission. The weapon is a character in the franchise as much as any person.
A mid-length direct impingement AR platform in flat dark earth or black, depending on the operator's preference. Iron sights standard. Accepts every attachment in the MW3 system. Worn and taped on working operators; pristine on contractors who haven't used theirs yet.
