Based on the real-world MP7, the VEL 46 is a compact personal defense weapon designed for mobility and close-quarters engagements. It has been available in MW2 since launch but while the VEL 46 started out as an underappreciated and niche option it has since risen to prominence following a series of buffs.

While the design of the M91 is based upon an elongated version of the AK-47 design just like its predecessor, the Zastava M76, the M91 features several modifications, bringing it closer to the Dragunov rifle.
