The PPSh-41 is a Sub-Machine Gun that is available in Call of Duty: World at War, Call of Duty: ZOMBIES, Call of Duty: Black Ops DS, and Call of Duty: Black Ops III on Nacht Der Untoten (ZOMBIES only), Verruckt, Shi No Numa, Der Riese, House, Facility, Temple (map), Overlook, and Gorod Krovi. It also makes an appearance on the remastered version of Nacht Der Untoten, Verrückt, and Shi No Numa in Black Ops III as part of the Zombies Chronicles DLC, though it remains in the box just like in World At War.
The PPSh-41 once again returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, this time with a 35 round stick magazine by default (though a 71 round drum magazine is unlockable). when upgraded, the PPSh-41 becomes the Grisly Reaper.
Overview[]
This weapon can be bought as a Mystery Box Weapon in all the maps it's featured in, as well as a Wall Weapon in Black Ops DS on all maps for 5000 points. This weapon has sufficient damage, a very high rate of fire, short range, and lots of ammo in both the magazine and reserve, equivalent to a Machine Gun's ammo count.
The gun is favoured by the zombies community and is well known for having low damage but a fast rate of fire, arguably the best SMG from the Mystery Box one should seek this out if an appropriate Light Machine Gun is not yet avaliable as it will be usefull for the entire game, and when upgraded in Der Riese/Gorod Krovi the weapon turns into something even more ludicrous.
Pack-A-Punch[]
If upgraded via Pack-a-Punch Machine in Der Riese the gun is entitled The Reaper and has a magazine size of 115 that seems to rival that of a machine gun. This may be a reference to Element 115. It has a vast increase in damage, doing more damage than the MG42 and M1919 Browning even if both are upgraded. But it still burns through ammo very quickly, so it advised that the player has a back-up weapon they can use. The Reaper also features a decrease of recoil. Its fire rate is increased to around 1600 RPM, and adding Double Tap Root Beer would boost it all the way up to nearly 2000 RPM, making this weapon be used up very quickly.
