MP45

The HoltHolt's Firearms Incorporated MP45 is a blowback operated Submachine gun firing from a closed bolt. It is featured in Operation Sandstorm and Black Pegasus. It is chambered for the .45 Auto cartridge, and had a slow rate of fire and great power, Due to it's slow fire rate, it is capable of performing accurate shots at medium-long ranges.
==History==
The MP45 was manufactured by Holt in 2003 from the request of the Amphibious Panamoan Marine Corps. It was originally chambered at the 9x19mm Parabellum caliber, or the 40 S&H. But it had been changed to the .45 FMJ, as the APMC wanted a high powered submachine gun. It was effortlessly created, although received positive feedback from the marines, it was noted to have sensitivity to dirt and sand, because of it's lack of a chrome lined bore and chamber, coupled with a cheap, plastic body.
Holt quickly realized the flaws, and started to reinforce the weapon's body, replacing the current plastic materials with an expensive Polyethylene, that is sometimes having phosphate matte black anodized finish, and a chrome lined bore/barrel, and the MP45 was then accepted by the Army and the Marines.
The was then returned to military service and extensive testing was commenced, gaining positive feedback from APMC Marines who tested the weapon, and it was also used by vehicle crew members, due to it's compact size and shape. Despite that, the usual complaint is a slow rate of fire, but this allows for higher accuracy. It was also heavily used by numerous APMC Marines in a Operation Sandstorm, being used by vehicle crew members, and APMC Scout teams. Due to it's high caliber, decent range and good accuracy, it was highly favored for it's versatility in almost any circumstances.
The MP45s later on, the APMC are completely replaced by the XM90 and the MK11 Windbreaker, as of 2020.
===Operation Sandstorm===
The MP45 is used in the mission "Sudden Urge", which is also used by the Glaz'Ik Policemen. Although they drop it in a 1 in 1000 chance, alongside attachments. It is also used by Jack Blackburn in the said mission, modified with a Foregrip and an XM21 Reflex Sight, according to a file containing his own information about himself.
===Black Pegasus===
The MP45 had a prominent appearance in Black Pegasus, during the sudden surprise attack on Chroma City, the ICPF officers are usually equipped with MP45s, which tends to have a variety of foregrips and optics. The MP45 also had higher recoil in the campaign, hindering it's long range capabilities, and becomes more oriented to mobile mid range combat.
The MP45 was also seen used by the PRU insurgents, with their Buttstocks folded as usual, as they don't care about accuracy when using the weapon; They notably unload rounds at their targets recklessly. Sean Wilcox also grabbed one in the sudden attack on Chroma City.
==Design==
The MP45 is a blowback-operated, magazine-fed submachine gun firing from a closed bolt. Its predominantly plastic construction reduces both its weight and manufacturing costs, and therefore increase the number of parts susceptible to corrosion, leading to some complaints about being unreliable in muddy conditions.
As originally designed, the MP45 is chambered for larger cartridges (.45 Auto and .40 S&W) than other submachine guns like the Evron SMG9, to provide more stopping power against unarmoured targets (with slightly lower effectiveness at longer range) than the XM90. A larger cartridge produces more recoil, and makes it more difficult to control in fully automatic firing. To mitigate this, the cyclic rate of fire was reduced to 510-612 rounds per minute.
The revised MP45 had it's plastic upper and lower receivers replaced with an expensive Polyethylene polymers, which makes it more durable and resistant to most circumstances, while a chrome plated bore, chamber and barrel decreased reliability problems of the weapon, but still it can only shoot at 612 RPM max.

== Trivia==
===General===
*The .40 S&H and .45 Auto magazines are so similar that it cannot be precisely identified except when looking at the cartridges of both magazines.
*Usually equipped with a tactical grip light, which helps in the usage of ICPF police officers and SWAT teams
*Is slightly more powerful than a super-short barreled 5.56mm SDC carbine at close ranges, ranging from zero to eighty meters.
*Fire rate of 666 rounds per minute, above average; However it can be as slow as 500 RPM on some models.
===Operation Sandstorm===
*The Front Sight is not removed when mounting optics, causing an obstruction to the sight picture.
*"711" is found on the receiver and it is written in red.
*"PAK CORP" is erroneously engraved as well, possibly to mock Holt.
*"WARNING" is engraved on the receiver.
