"The MP7 is part of a new breed of personal defense weapons intended to replace traditional side arms or submachine guns. The MP7 is issued to troops who would not normally carry an assault rifle (such as vehicle pilots or crew members)."
ā In-game description
The MP7 is a Tier Two submachine gun in Battlefield 2 and the default weapon for the SASEngineer in Battlefield 2: Special Forces. It possesses both automatic and semi-automatic fire modes, with a relatively high rate of fire at 900RPM. Its damage is average for the submachine guns and its spread values are, like the other submachine guns, are slightly above-average. However, it does have a fairly high magazine size at 40 rounds.
When the weapon is unlocked, the top left-hand corner of the unlock image shows the icon of the Medic kit rather than the Engineer kit. The image with the erroneous icon can be found in mods\bf2\Objects\Weapons\Handheld\sasrif_mp7\info\unlockIcon.png. An image with the Engineer icon can be found in the folder of Battlefield 2: Special Forces, in mods\xpack\Menu_client.zip\External\FlashMenu\images\objects\Weapons\Handheld\sasrif_mp7\info\unlockIcon.png, but is not seen in the game.
