    I personally feel like it's quite ridiculous that a handgun (five seven) can 2 shot a person on full health with a headshot and a body shot. I feel like this is way too op and should get a nerf for it at least not to be a 2 shot when hitting the head and body.

    I personally feel like a handgun shouldn't be 2 shotting at all but I think starting with making it a 2 shot only if it hits the head twice would be a good nerf. I don't have any problems with any other of the handguns but the five seven is in my opinion a bit too good especially if you use steady aim which quite a few players use.

    But let me know what you think if you disagree or not and if you think a different handgun needs a buff or nerf as I feel the magnum could use a slight buff making it either do more damage or better hipfire accuracy.

    I just think we should remove these guns from global kits so players actually have a goal to work towards...

    Have you tested this? If I remember right only two headshots can kill a full health player (and I'm not even sure if it can do that). Then again I haven't played in a month /shrug

    Ice Bear doesn't see that big of a problem with the five-seven Ice Bear would much rather be holding an M4a1 ACR or AK over a pistol. Ice Bear says yes it is frustrating to die to the Five-seven but it doesn't make it OP. What does need attention is the Magnum basically it is a bad deagle. Whenever Ice Bear thinks of a 44. magnum Ice Bear thinks of Clint Eastwood pulling it from under a poncho and shooting 3 guys without aiming. Ice Bear says a hipfire buff would be a lot better than a damage buff considering the Deagle is basically a higher damage magnum.

    I've never heard of anyone having issues with the 5-7 in any way. I'd rather focus on the guns that actually need to be nerfed or buffed. Like the magnum and the MG4. The magnum needs a buff (obviously). I find it weird that you unlock this secondary after the 5-7. It's not even anywhere close as good as the 5-7. Either rank it below the 5-7 or give it a buff like a slightly increased fire-rate and having better accuracy when hip firing. And then the MG4 (Idk for sure but I think it's nerfed already, I'm still going to talk about it though). I've never had any issue killing someone holding this LMG but man people hate it when they get killed by it because it's too OP. Idk what the MG4 stats are but I reckon people hate it because of its damage and fire-rate. This thing needs to be nerfed from what I understand.

    I believe that currently the 5-7 is fine. It is a pretty balance gun and is decent all round, but in my opinion not too overpowered.

    Perhaps the 5-7 should be a higher unlock than under level 20. Switching its place with deagle would make more sense imo.

    Ice Bear says that increasing the level still doesn't lower its power just its acessability. A level 7 with a 5-7 isn't much of a threat due to skill. Ice Bear says that the 5-7 is a good equalizer that closes the power gap between low and high level players.

    When was the last one one of these nerfs ever happened? Right after release with the AK?

    Just because of a lack, or in this case absence of changes, has happened recently doesn't mean they will not be able to be changed soon.

    I do think the FiveSeven needs a slight nerf. The 2-shot potential makes it just as powerful as most primary rifles.

    Ice Bear says 5-7 isn't nearly as powerful as AK M4 or ACR the sheer firerate more than makes up for the damage.

    I suggest that the combination of a body shot and a headshot kills a player should be changed cause for a handgun to be able to do that sounds quite weird (in both mw3 and bo2 this was not a 2 hit gun either)

    I like the 5-7 the way it is. Its a good Pistol, because it really can save your Ass when your Main-Weapon is out of Ammo.
    I'd rather see a Nerf of the Mg4... that Gun is still way to OP.. Like slower firerate, or Less accuracy, or less dmg. Just one of this nerfs would be Great!

    In mw3 and bo2 the fire rate was faster.
    There aren’t many secondaries in cod that can 2 shot (except rocket launchers, combat knives, and the pistol with one bullet in advanced warfare)

    I have to agree with prouddyyy. The problem with the 5-7 is that it's better than all the other pistols. it needs a slight nerf.

    Ice Bear wouldn’t say better strictly but more versatile (okay it is hard to compare when 2 of them ar complete trash) m23 raffia is a decent pistol the only problem is that it needs steady aim to be effective. Same story with deagle and less so for m9. Both are absolute killers with stopping power. I’d say buff the other pistols so m9 can 3 shot body shot (all you have to do is buff its damage by 0.1) and deagle to be a 2 shot body shot (buff damage by 0.4) for USP 45 make it fire even faster and have more ammo and magnum add a hipfire accuracy buff. I’d rather see the other guns buffed than one gun needed because nerfs lower diversity buffs shine the spot light to other guns. Also slight nerfs especially ones to damage are not slight at all even the smallest change can change an interaction completely such as the m9 adding a 0.1 that’s right not even a whole number can make the m9 a two tap terror. (M9 deals 9.9 and 6.6)
