This time, we're covering the PDW-57.
Another fictional weapon, the PDW is a futuristic derivative of the P90: this weapon previously present in all of the Modern Warfare titles.
The PDW-57 - or Personal Defence Weapon, 5.7mm calibre - is relatively similar to its parent design, with a few minor cosmetic changes when compared to the Belgian P90.
Outlandish in appearance, the P90 and PDW designs share the same top-loading magazine - an unconventional feed mechanism, but one capable of holding 50 rounds of the unusual 5.7 by 28 millimetre cartridge.
This cartridge fires a smaller bullet at higher velocity, for a similar kinetic energy to a typical SMG: but with far better penetration characteristics against modern military body armour.
The PDW-57 is a high damage SMG, capable of killing in just 3 shots to the body at a close range.
The MSMC has a slight edge in damage, but in practical terms the PDW is similarly powerful.
Outside the weapon's short range you'll need 6 shots to kill: a hefty differential, making close-range engagements a necessity to make the most of this SMG.
Rate of fire is a moderate 750 rounds per minute - slow by typical SMG standards, but part of the price you pay for a higher damage weapon.
With Rapid Fire this will be elevated to 940 rounds per minute, on par with the MP7 - but you lose much of your damage potential through a loss of much of your effective range.
Hipfire performance is good - on par with all other SMGs, although you may see less consistent performance than those weapons with a higher fire rate.
Recoil is moderate - burst firing is essential at a longer range, although given the lower damage it may be best to avoid such gunfights altogether.
Aim time is 200 milliseconds, standard for the SMG class: as is your movement speed, at 100% base.
Magazine capacity is excellent, holding true to the P90's tradition: the translucent top-loading magazine holds 50 rounds by default, more than any other SMG.
Extended clip takes this capacity to a loftier 65, although given that reloads are only a little slower than average - at 2.59 seconds - 50 rounds is generally sufficient.
The PDW-57 is a potent close-range weapon that has a versatile blend of attributes for close-quarter gunfights.
With 50 rounds in the magazine, you've essentially got extended clip for free: and paired with good hipfire performance and a higher level of damage, the PDW is a top-tier contender in aggressive play.
However, the PDW loses any advantage outside of its effective range - at a mid range you have moderate recoil and a 5-6 shot kill to contend with, giving the advantage to opponents with weapons better suited for such distances.
The slower rate of fire can be a liability too - while you deal more damage per shot than most other SMGs, this also means accuracy becomes more critical: relying on hipfire may yield inconsistent performance.
Still, the PDW is no slouch when it comes to closer quarters: you'll still fare better than most weapons outside of the SMGs and shotguns.
With a build that favours tactical SMG play over unchecked aggression - you can instead take a subversive approach, turning enemy equipment into fuel for your own scorestreaks.
This high-tech build will thwart your enemy's plans...
... and help to engineer your victory. - Hry
Whenever Ahoy talks about 5.7mm guns he gets sick
Frankly, he caught Pneumonia whilst working on this episode and was sick for several weeks back then.

Use rapid fire attachment
Reasons to watch Xbox Ahoy:That voice, his subtle puns.
We have drastically different definitions for the word "subtle."
What's a pun?
DesertedFreeman Yeah but what else are you expecting other than puns? It's Cod National Geographic!

That was cheesy bro
Over 7 years later, and these are just as entertaining as ever
That voice tho..
Ikr he sounds like he actually is from the army
Rohit Shinde That's cause he had pneumonia
Oh ok thanks SavageMontana12

What pneumia?
Even when you're sick, your voice is still smooth
+Ahoy Did u ever think of trying to hired by National Geographic Channel or the History Channel (or some other channel like that) as a narrator? U have an amazing speaking voice and u should get paid (other than just CZcams money) to speak!
If they ever bring back Deadliest Warrior
+DJ SavageGLO SAVAGE GLO BOY
He could narrate any show and I'd watch/listen to it...no homo. Hell he could narrate something like cspan (that live USA government channel) and it would instantly become watchable!
i wish he would comeback to Black ops 3 :C miss these :C
Same
the weevil has the same stats
oh you're talking about ahoy, I thought you meant the PDW
oh you're talking about ahoy, I thought you meant the PDW
Actually no the weevil has less damage and range.
CoD national geographic. Lol!! :D amazing

Even when he's sick, his voice gives me eargasms.
This is the most unique ass setup I've ever seen good job
This is pretty much a support class
I'm just here for nostalgia
- Dexterity: why I'm not in the setup?
- Rambo Ahoy: _no time to run if you are in your M60's_
If this gun wasn't nerfed it would be my all time favorite gun. Big magazine,low recoil,good damage and range,not too slow of a reload time.
I used to use the following class with it.
Attachments
Laser Sight.
Adjustable Stock.
Extended Clip.
Blue Perk.
Hardline.
Green Perk.
Sacavger.
Red Perk
Engineer.
Secondary Weapon.
Five-Seven.
LETHAL EQUIPMENT.
C4.
TACTICAL EQUIPMENT.
NONE.
Nice commentating,I felt like I was watching history channel or something,lol.
PLOT TWIST
YOU ARE
I like using Fast Mags on the PDW. (Yeah, I’m still watching these in 2020. I can’t believe it either.) The Fast Mags reload animation for this gun is very sleek.
I bought black ops 2 during the summer steam sale and I’ve been needing help with my kits this series has been invaluable in helping me assess my builds and reconfigure as needed. Thanks!
I agree on everything about the stock, as it will throw off most players shots while shooting. I like the stock best on this gun than any other minus the lmg's.
Very interesting build for the PDW, gonna try it this evening. I usually went Stock, Supressor and fast grip with it and rushed like crazy.
Your voice is so calm,soothing
I love the voice, it make's it more fun too watch. Also you give great examples of how equipement, attachements, etc... Best weapon guide ive ever seen.
It's funny, As soon as I first saw this gun I thought of the P90 because it had 50 rounds in a mag lol
who is here in 2021
My PDW-57 class:
PDW-57+ laser + suppressor
no secondary
Perk 1: Lightweight + Hardline
Perk 2: Toughness
Perk 3: Extreme Conditioning + Dexterity
Perk 3 greed
Perk 1 greed
no lethals
no tacticals
Grayson Bailey mine is pdw with suppresoor and laser and secondary as bazooka
+Grayson Bailey My class is the same except I use Long Barrel instead of the suppressor so I can get even more 3 hit kills. I think the mp7, vector k10 or scorpion evo would be much better choices with the suppressor because of the higher rate of fire.
Same
+Grayson Bailey thnx
Mine is suppressor, quick draw, and fast mag
You're getting a subscription. Very detailed, done right, and not only helpful with guns but just all around info in general. Thank you!
Really enjoy playing the "builds" and found this one especially enjoyable. Quite a nice counter to all of the normal run and gun builds. This one was great fun. Thank you for the awsome video.
you should make trailers, seriously that's how good your voice is :)
this is great i wanted a class that is defensive and eliminating enemy scorcestreaks
'Cowering behind their claymores' so true and such a good line.
It makes it worthwhile and non aggravating like some other you tubers i know..
best custom class load outs and examples ive seen so far.
I think he's. Sick
Tyler Fessenden makes him sound cooler though
He sounds different like he has the flu. Also I thought the PDW-57 was a real life gun introduced to Black Ops 2.
Its based off the P90. The Selector switch is in yhe front of the trigger. And the grips are shaped diffrent. But yhe general gun is the same
This video really help me thank you for making this video
woah... a newly found respect i give to this dude!...
Weird how he sounds even more epic when he has a cold. :D
They increased the recoil a little bit and also widened the hipfire spread, same with the MSMC too.
Like these reviews man very professional
This help me so much and I appreciate it
It's crazy he managed to do this video with pneumonia •w• he's tough as hell • --- •
wow you are pretty good on weapon histories
Love the catchphrases at the end, their like a James Bond movie.
Dude, I love your voice. First video I've watched. Subscribed! I'm so using this fun now XD
BEST PDW Setp: Fast mag And Supressor
i would take eotech sight over the suppressor, but suppressor is good, im not very good w/ pdws sight
laser sight, reflex, and stock for the best rushing class.
Ean Gdaniec Laser sight and suppressor is my loadout for the PDW when rushing. Works best on Nuketown.
Cryopocalypse Hate the PDW.
Might as well rush with an LMG, and I do.
My PDW rushing class is fast mag stock.
wait wait... how exactly do you extend the ammo on this weapon? the mag is as long as the weapon frame.
Thank you ! You really improved my stats :)
Xbox ahoy I think u have a legendary voice. I think you would do well as a narrator as ur voice sounds very professional. As always keep up the good work
pdw suppressor quickdraw stock BEST SETUP EVER!!! (For all you rushers)
I switched out the MMS because I had a lot of recoil when using it, so I put a suppressor instead.
Stay away from the suppressor on this. Hurts the range, which is the only reason the PDW is a kickass gun.
SkiDaBird Okay, I'm just good with it
suppresor is viable because of PDW's ammo capacity, i used it that way a lot
also I would get rid off stock since it is smg it does not recquire it
You make these reveiws sound so cool.
wow, usually i throw my own personal flare into your classes... but jesus man... this is perfect. youve really outdone yourself Stu
I LOVE the idea of this build. In my opinion, it only has a single problem: the PDW. I use this exact build, however I replace the PDW with the Peacekeeper instead. I’d say the Peacekeeper works better with this build, given its lower recoil, and more importantly its assault rifle-grade penetration, aiding in killing through walls via the MMS.
I love your video👍👌👏
PDW-57 is actually an Personal Defense Weapon Build of the AR-57, with the similar magazine used on the FN P90 TR International Model used in just about every Special Operations Group or Mercenary Corporation.
ok that was one of the coolest builds that i never taught of. seriously different and fun game play. gonna try this out tonight.
This guy is so bad ass
This is a wonderful class for trolling the enemy team.
idc about your voice dude i mean its cool i guess, but your vids are great! alot of hard work is put into this and people arn't realizing that. id be a little pissed if i was you and checked the comments and everyone is just talking about your voice, not the hours of work this vid took to make. good stuff keep doing them, subscribed!
His voice makes me think i'm watching a documentary on tv over BO2 weapons...love it
Pdw
w/ fast mag and laser sight
Perk 1: Bal. Vest
Perk 2: Toughness and Scavenger
Perk 3: Tac. Mask
Tactical: Hand grenade
Lethal: C4
Perk 2 Greed
Lol you mean flak jacket?
Yes
CoD Mobile: *has PDW use 9mm rounds as it's ammo*
Cod Bo2: Am I a joke to you?
That's BR
I miss these
9 years later and it somehow came up on my recommended
PDW-57 = Magpul PDW-R + FN P90
Primary: PDW-57 w/ Fast Mags, Long Barrel
Secondary: B23R or KAP-40 w/ Extended Clip
Perks: Lightweight, Flak Jacket (Wildcard Used), Toughness, Tactical Mask
Personal class...
*Cough* Mag not clip
Going to try this out, as I use these a lot, and I'll tell you how it ships out to be.
holy crap this is cool, i never would have thought to use the PDW like this, i probably wont but its really cool to see
I'd pay substantial amounts of money to have this guy talk me to sleep. His voice is like the white version of Morgan freeman
Dat voice dough
Dude.. nice informational video, thank u. Btw if u can post a vid about the best weqpon in bo2 itll b awsome
Superb vid love the info
Is there a reason he doesn't do aw guide
He said that he wouldn't do a year long series and no CoD videos
+Alin Alyn546 did he said why?
+yavuz selim han osmanoglu probably bored of it and wants to talk about less boring games
To gather all the data and averages of gun specs and the specs of attachments plus figuring out the specific build for the weapon he chooses and to give an overall review of the closest real life weapon counterpart such as rounds, manufacturers, country of origin ect. AND to top it all off create a well thorough script for gameplay AND A LOT OF PUNS AND COMMENTARY all for a video in a category or 64-67 videos on BO2
Its not loading on my ipod 5 even with perfection
Even after patch, the PDW is still my favourite gun
Good comeback, bruv
He sounds different
Someone notices!
His voice sounds weird in this
*2 Years Later*
At that moment, he had Pneumonia.
This had to be one of, if not the most beautiful gun when equipped wuth diamond camo.
I'm all about the PDW in black ops 2. Running and gunning is my favorite playstyle and this gun suits it perfectly. Its great for CQC with quickdraw, a silencer and the ghost perk.
If there's one thing that's more annoying than MP7 with suppressor, its PDW with suppressor.
and u know whats more annoying then the PDW with suppressor? you! but we cant put a suppressor on you so your even more annoying
Rekt
Get rekt
+Sanjay Persaud Off to the burn ward I go
A good vid made on my b-day! Thx
Great build and found it very useful but I am not used to stock and the high recoil I replaced the stock with foregrip
Thank you for the Guide
the puns at the end of his videos get me every time!!!! Hahaha
I like the voice a lot as well as the info from the video. ^-^
Real cod ogs remember these videos
I felt like that at first too, just keep using it and trying different attachments for it…eventually you’ll see the good in the PDW. My go to sub machine, next to the vector.
That was a very original comment. I have never seen it on any of his videos. Thank you very much for that.
He said on his other channel that he focuses on getting the gun maxed out in prestige 2. if he has the class in his mind before he uses it, he will use it when he can but if its an attachment like extended mags or something later in the unlocks, he may not have much time to use it before he records more than enough gameplay.
I love this gun I want it back!! It also has the best iron sights in cod history in my opinion!
I feel like this is a documetary on tv, i love it
A very nice build :)
I was at a gun show today, and they had the 50 round P90 mag loaded in the top of an M4
This actually does not only derivate from the P90, but also from the american-built PDW-57. That's basically a M4 with the same loading mechanismn asthe PDW-57 in BO2, using the usual M4 magwell as bullet ejection. Pretty awesome.
you are like the morgan freeman of youtube you sound awesome you were made to speek to other people with your voice:)
thank god for that. it was about damn time!
man u kickass with that gun
He kickes ass with every gun
This is genius thank you so much
