In-Game:[]
Available for purchase for 1000 points in all Black Ops maps, usualy second room, along-side the PM63. A perfect pairing in the matter of fire-rate, being the highest with the exception of the Death Machine power-up. 144 total rounds, 24 of which fill each magazine. In terms of damage, as many bullets as the current round number and a knife attack will yield maximum points. Recoil is low, and the iron sight is more than manageable, resulting in easy headshots.

Pack-A-Punch:[]
A 5000 point investment in the Pack-A-Punch machine will grant you with the MPL-LF. Near doubling in munition to 240 whilst also near doubling in magazine size to an impressive 40. Most noticable, the upgraded variant attaches a red-dot sight, with near non-exsistant recoil. Disappointingly, ammo is a primary concern in rounds after 18, as the 240 bullets dissipate quickly, but those with keen eyes will find most of those bullets surrounded in dead brain matter.
Ammunition:[]
The 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge was introduced in 1902 by 'Deutsch Waffen Und Munitionsfabriken' for their Luger Pistol. Parabellum is derived from the company's motto "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum" (if you seek peace, prepare for war).
