This time, we're covering the SMR.
A new addition to Call of Duty's arsenal, this single shot assault rifle is unlocked for use at level 46.
The SMR is a fictional bullpup battle rifle, modelled after the Russian Tula Saritch .308 rifle.
Currently only a prototype design, the Saritch is intended to be a modular weapon system intended to fulfil a variety of roles.
It fires the powerful .308 Winchester cartridge - essentially the NATO rifle round - and the bullpup design keeps overall dimensions short while preserving barrel length.
This gives the weapon a blend of manoeuvrability, accuracy and power - although comes at the cost of higher recoil and a more complex internal mechanism.
In-game, the damage reflects the powerful cartridge - as the SMR is the highest damage assault rifle on offer.
Like the FAL, the SMR will kill in two shots anywhere to the body at a close range - but will retain this high level of damage out to a longer distance, only requiring 3 body shots over the longer sightlines.
This makes for very consistent performance - and the high damage is able to pierce cover effectively too, with excellent penetration characteristics.
Fire cap is adequate for most trigger fingers, but otherwise low by most automatic weapon standards: by default, the weapon will fire semi-automatically at a rate of up to 535 rounds per minute.
Paired with select fire, the weapon will become fully-automatic: although your fire rate will be reduced to just 416 rounds per minute.
Hipfire performance is poor, the same as the FAL OSW, and some degree worse than average for the assault rifle class.
Recoil is high, much more significant than the FAL - although it can be moderated by slowing your rate of fire down to ensure accuracy.
Aim time is a little slower than average for the assault rifle class, at 275 milliseconds - but these additional 25 milliseconds will seldom make any real difference.
Other handling traits are comparable to the SMR's peers, and you'll move at the assault rifle default of 95% of the base speed.
Magazine capacity is the lowest in class, at 20 rounds - although with careful fire control this will prove sufficient for most gunfights, even in cases where you find yourself tackling multiple foes.
Extended clip bumps this up to 26 rounds instead.
Reloads are slowest in class too, although at just 2.75 seconds, such resupplies are far from inconvenient.
This is where the SMR performs best: with slower handling traits it's not necessarily wise to take an aggressive tack with the weapon.
Instead, hang back and take the time to anticipate your enemy's movements, so that they might wander into your killzone and succumb quickly to accurate fire.
The SMR is the highest damage weapon within the assault rifle category, with similar traits to the FAL OSW - with enhanced damage at the cost of heavier recoil and a reduced magazine size.
Within its intended marksman role these downsides are not a major factor - with such consistent 2-shot damage out to a considerable range, you can do much more with 20 rounds than most automatic rifles will do with 30.
Even the heavier recoil can be tamed with good fire control - and with a superb ability to pierce cover, you'll never be left wanting for stopping power with this rifle.
However, to truly take advantage of this hard-hitting ability you will need to mould your playstyle to the weapon: a more conservative approach is needed to ensure accuracy and to keep the slower handling traits from leaving you at a disadvantage.
Ultimately it is the slower semi-automatic fire, larger hipfire spread and slower aim time and reload that will prove your downfall with this weapon: faster-firing, more nimble weapons will often have the advantage, despite your two-shot power.
Still, as long as you position yourself well and prepare your defenses, the SMR remains versatile enough to cope with a wide variety of situations.
So, if high power and marksman-grade precision arouse your interest...
...perhaps it's time to get a semi.
This is such a strange gun, sometimes it's easy to get kills and sometimes it's bullets don't even register.
+Cpt. Shmitt Its just your McDonald's connection
I actually have a Burger king connection if you must know.
Burger king; that's even worse!
*worse
+Cpt. Shmitt *esrow
The reload animation on this gun is sick!
Ikr
Yeah, the reload animation is pretty cool. I just love how the part of the stock has the black dotted pad. It makes the gun look so advanced.
+Stealthygunner X
I thought the black dotted pad made the gun look sexy.
If the damage on the SMR is high in multiplayer, WHY IS THE DAMAGE SO LOW IN ZOMBIES????????
EXACTLY. The five-seven does more damage in zombies
I'm guessing because the zombies have much more health then players.
+Rovi Decena It still doesn't explain why the 57 deals more damage
true
+Alectryon Probably for balancing. Or something like that I don't really know.
4:07 bro made a fire transition and thought we wouldn’t notice
It amazes me how polarizing this thing is, in multiplayer it's actually really good, in zombies however it's absolutely awful
Man i LOVED all these old xboy ahoy videos, i seriously miss them!
Who's idea was it to make extended mags 30% in BO2? It was perfect at 50%.
***** ikr
***** This is coming from the same company that made the Foregrip near-useless.
weakestlink20 Don't get me started on that, that also pissed me off to no end. I was glad that they fixed it in Ghosts but then let down by the entirety of Ghosts.
+Go17Gabe Not at all. Please explain your logic in making on how Ghost ruined the series?
+Go17Gabe I hate it when fresh bo2 people hit Ghost and complain on Ghost when its actually a realistic feel to a cod game
The best gun in zombies
Yeah the War Machine is a close second!!!!
+Cyrus Flores Nah bruh the ray gun after round 50 is the best :D
+Echo Gecko m1911 non pack a punched is my fav
If only Springfield was in this game.
I love the smr
man the mag flick when the character reloads the SMR is so eyecatching.
The SMR is my baby. Target finder and selective fire basically meant I could track targets at the range the SMR is meant to be used with extreme ease, and then switching to fully automatic when I needed to blitz an objective or fight close quarters, putting that 2 round body shot kill to some serious use.
Am I a scrub with no skill? Maybe. But I'd rather have fun than settle within whatever counts for 'skill' in COD and getting tons of hate mail only makes it more fun.
Target Finder ?! Are you kidding ?! This thing is one the biggest cons in Bo2
***** I honestly have no clue what you mean by that. If you're saying the TF is a con, that's fine. I just prefer it since even if my target is running cold blooded, the TF is basically a holosight-ACOG hybrid and I find it very easy to acquire and put accurate fire on targets with it.
If you're saying the SMR is a con, that's also fine. I just like the way it looks over the FAL and I love the two-shot kill.
Vlakvark
No SMR is fine. But the tarbet finder is just, its a noob attachemnt. i know how that sounds but its really so. You cant miss that giant red square in your crosshair
Like I said, I'd rather have fun with my play, rather than play in a way that's 'skillful'. Besides, using cheesy attachments and weapons always gets me a ton of 'fan-mail', which provides me with never ending comedy gold.
Vlakvark
ah yeah. I once owned somebody with an Hybrid scope An-94 so often taht he only screemed my name.
The SMR can function as an extremely effective close quarters weapon with:
MMS
Extended Mags
Ghost
Scavanger&Toughness
Tactical Mask
FAL is better
@@iv689 did you really just reply to a 8 year old comment??
@@Flawskiii he's almost a decade late, but at least he made the effort xD
@@hooligans7618 fr tho.
The DMR before DMRs were in Call of Duty
Looking at you, "Modern" Warfare and Mobile
The most amazing sight on this weapon is the Acog sight with the range drop ridicule. It adds 2% centerspeed and has the a higher level of zoom than the red dot visual, but with a similar ridicule.
This is one of the coolest Black Ops 2 weapons guids you have done. Really cool transitions. Keep up the good work!
the voice, THE VOICE. It’s amazing
The brilliance of stu's puns at the end of every video is seriously unmatched on RUclips
Anyone else here because they made Black ops 2 backwards compatible and you forgot everything about the guns?
The most under rated weapon in the game
+Deanooo14 So true
Mtar
Wallop IFunny mtar isn't underrated
It's also not very easy to pick up and get kills with. There are certain tactics you need to utilize
It’s sad because of how memed this gun is in zombies how often people forget how strong it was in multiplayer.
your voice is awsome
An awesome voice, on this rifle...
It's an AhoySMR.
He sounds like price lmao
This gun is actually so underrated. Super epic damage, range, and recoil! :)
Oh my gosh dude that's so awesome!! You totally sound like someone from like IMAX or something! Great review and video this is awesome!
D'ahh... Just 4 extra RPM on fully automatic mode. It would have been perfect.
Racist Chicken he said full auto so he also meant select fire
@Racist Chicken "fully automatic mode" can you read?
@Racist Chicken you literally said the same thing they said, your comment is pointless
@Racist Chicken but you replied to it 4 minutes after I did 😂
@Racist Chicken yea I'd say that's accurate
i like this unbiased review. personnally i use acog , fast mag, and my perks are lightweight and hardline along with toughness,and dexterity, and i have a concussion and semtex
Why does everyone hate the iron sights,I find it quite effective
The way the recoil feels with the iron sights is annoying, but indeed they are fine
+Alin Alyn546 I've never had recoil problems with semi-automatic rifles since COD4. MK-14 from MW3, FAL and SMR from BO2 all seem to be recoil-less to me. And I do have a quick trigger finger.
CodeName Apex iron sights are useful for when emp systems go online
or you can just use a red dot like me and just take a marker and draw on a dot @@Pizza2hotty
@@Pizza2hotty or you can choose hard wired and the optic of your choice
Oh god,that pun at the end... Beautiful.
With full auto and fmj this thing turns into a bolter. SMR = Space Marines Rifle!

J
FMJ is all I need to dominate if I have a burst as a secondary I will DOMINATE
It's definitely underrated.
I always use the SMR as my main Assault Rifle. It's definitely made my Kill/Death Ration very high. Plus, if you know how to move well, the hip fire does work, even without a laser sight. The EOtech and Hybrid Optics work best when it comes to optics since it increases your range better than a Reflex would. With fast mag, it works very well and if you got a good trigger finger, you'd even destroy fully-automatic assault rifles with ease. I mainly use Hardline & Ghost, Scavenger, and Dexterity along with C4 and Shock Charges. It's my perfect all-around class that's very good. :)
Though I look down at those who use Full-Auto on the FAL and SMR. To me, it just means you have no skill and don't know how to use a Marksman Rifle right. Besides, it's better to keep the gun the way it is with it's firing mode since you'll get the best fire rate with it That's just my opinion though
Henry Kage
I look at it like this: The full auto FAL has the average firing rate at one (at least me) pumps the trigger. Also, the game classifies it as an assault rifle, so why not use it as an assault rifle? If you have played mw2, remember those akimbo model 1887s before the patch? Think about those for a moment, then that auto rifle won't seem so bad.
Depends if you have a trigger finger at that point in time
I'm best with the mtar
Ahoy, I dont know if you will see this message or not but after all these years, you have always had the best weapon summaries and stats. With Modern warfare coming out soon, I can only hope that you bring your expertise to this iteration of COD and set the record straight on how weapons behave rather than my own trail and error.
Man this gun is so underrated. The memories I had playing with this gun in multiplayer. I wish I can say the same for Zombies…
Turns out, it wasn't too terribly bad for Zombies, especially when playing solo. You will have the luxury to take things slow and be able to shoot through multiple zombies without too much fear of missing. Not to mention in waves 7-12, give or take, it's low damage is a blessing in disguise. PaP SMR is all semi auto, great accuracy, low damage, and 30/390 ammo. Might not seem like much, but that means that you can sink bullet after bullet into zombies and gain a lot of points for doing so, especially without Double Tap
This is the gund that i really hate to use because my aim sucks balls but always ended up using because it looks hella cool and the reload animation is amazing.
wtf the smr is the most powerful gun then why does it suck in zombies
SMR pack a punched is awesome.
minievildude17 what kind of weed are you smoking
It's Zombie logic. Many things are distorted. You could say the exact same for the War Machine, and then you can go on to question why in the hell a Type 25 looks in the opposite direction after shooting 10 bullets.
good point
Go for heads in zombies.
The SMR w QuickDraw handle and Adj Stock transform it into a flickable strafing monster perfectly capable of short range fighting. It is my current fave. In order to compete, you need a fast trigger and quick reaction time, plus toughness perk. I also run flak jkt and the standard lightweight, dext and ext cond. gold combat knife secondary for stairs and no equip/tact. One had to be a boss to pull it off, but it is rewarding
It‘s the ASMR because it can but you to sleep easily.
This is such an underated AR, it is absolutely deadly in the right hands and can even give the mighty FAL a run for its money at mid-long ranges.
"Maybe it's time to get a Semi." KappaPride
Rather get a FNFAL Then a SMR
im here for the voice too, although the effort he puts into his videos dont go unnoticed
It's the worst in zombies
No it's not, the WaW Springfield is.
SunnyDoesntMinceraft BRRRRRRRRRAINS... is the worst weapon in Zombies.
weakestlink20 But you have to hack to get it.
SunnyDoesntMinceraft Still, worse than the Springfield. Two shot kill on round one isn't good at all.
weakestlink20 BRRRRRRRRAINS... is the melee equivalent of the Springfield.
I use Stock and Fast Mags. The irons are clunky, but the aiming pin is really thin and thus really precise. When played long enough with it you will love it.
one of my fav weapon in bo2 alongside mp7, msmc and dsr 50
It's really a matter of preference and like what someone said. Drift0r's the scientist, but Stu here's the AI in your kickass battle suit that tells you what the weapons do and are capable of.
The recoil isn't high, there's no recoil at all.
0nePiecePirates I'd say that the SMR doesn't have that bad of recoil. Per shot recoil is high, but the centerspeed is very high IMO.
@OnePiecePirates do you even know what recoil is
DAT FINAL KILL. 8:11. Amazing show of accuracy Stu!!!! SMR FTW!!
I like the irons...
This is my favourite assault rifle. The punishing two shot range is why this is the best.
Best gun in the game
Ed K I hated it
Good argument. I think an example of that in this game is the executioner, i rarely see people using it. I use just because its an oddball weapon, and i would love to see more weapons offer strange ways to kill things.
It's a good gun in multiplayer but it ain't good zombies xd.
I rarely do this. But I seen one of your videos a couple days back and loved it so I subbed
Everything about your videos are professional. You provide insight and 1st hand experience about guns. I just love your videos all around.
What I think separates you the most is your voice. It sounds very professional and not like a whiney 12 year old like most commentators.
While you do have a very large amount of subscribers it amazes me you don't have far more.
this gun sucks on console. but is basically as easy as point and click on PC
Give select fire on the vector a try. It makes the gun fire at 2 round bursts and also increases the fire rate without range penalties. It takes some skill to use, and is really rewarding.
I was searching for ASMR but I missed the A and just tapped search not realizing what I just did~ but hey~ I am here~
This brings back so many memories! Black ops 2 was such a great game and the SMR my favourite gun! :,)
SMR Stands For Shit My Rifle.
Shoot, Miss, Rage
TheGameLegend25 True dat
PHD Flopper Or So Much Recoil
Heh
The end quote was great.
The SMR was the F2000 in other games - Looks like a fish, ugly ass reload animation, bad ironsights, hardly effective and ugly sound haha.
The SMR is amazing in multi-player, great range, great iron sights and great damage.
You gotta be kidding,it is the best looking AR,put diamond and its amazing.
Johnny Black
It's the overall least nice performing gun. No one uses it.
I use it,and I have the highest kd with it.
Johnny Black
KDR says nothing, hope you know that. A gun can be perfect & you'll still get pawned in a lobby full of full parties of Tryhard Prestige Master nerds. And you can pawn hard with a loadout designed to not work if you just use your brain & outplay people.
I think XboxAhoy`s videos are the only ones RUclips where the captions actually work.
SMR is awsome with select fire! I've made so many people with sub-machine guns rage when I win close-quarters encounters with this guns! And the space between shots is perfect for controling recoil and not running out of ammo so fast. Hands down one of the best guns in game.
Is it me or is Stu an absolute beast in BO 2 in his latest videos,
his game has improved tremendously
Would you consider willing to do a video on enhancing gun-skill and cognizance with your delicious voice please ?
Man, I loved the SMR before Rapid Fire was nerfed. The 50 RPM decrease (the default was 450 RPM back then) wasn't a big deal for me, as I don't have a good trigger finger anyway. It was actually a consistent RPM increase for me. And back then, there was no range penalty. Automatic fire was way less mentally stressing.
But then they nerfed SMR Rapid Fire's range. I haven't played since. This gun is probably still fun. If I ever play BO2 again (fat chance) I'll try it, but it won't be the same...
I love the Smr. It's perfect for me with Faster Reload, Select Fire. For close Quarters you can use the laser but I use normally the Red Dot. The High Recoil isn't a big problem cause you only need 2 shots even to the body. And even with high recoil these 2 shots hits most of the time.
I don't even play BO2, I just enjoy these videos. It's like he's giving a real briefing or something.
This was by far the hardest AR to get gold. I definitely had to stop forcing my play style and adapt to the gun. Nice video.
Primary: SMR w/ Any Optic (Personally Reflex Sight)
Secondary: Any Pistol
Perks: Flak Jacket, Hardline (Wildcard Used), Toughness, Tactical Mask
Equipment: 2 Concussion or Flashbang (Tactical)
Personal resilience class... Versatile with range...
That level of weapon variety is actually par for the course in Call of Duty; MW1 had 2 shotguns and 3 LMGs: BO1 had 4 shotguns, 4 LMGs, 4 snipers, and 4 launchers. Side note, BO2 has 42 weapons total, same as BO1 and slightly less than MW3's 49 weapons.
He did - bullpup weapons generally have higher recoil (explained in the introduction), and Treyarch apparently decided to match this in-game.
Yeah. Also, when uprising was announced Vonderhaar even said that there wouldn't be any more guns added after the peacekeeper because of the reasons you mentioned.
This is a brilliant weapon that can really turn the tide in a match,with its damage.I use tougness,ghost ,scavenger,hardline,dexterity,flak,select ,quick,reflex
OHH I was thinking this gun was also in R6 Siege. It’s the Spear .308
He answers questions in his bonus video. He mentions/talks about his cats often.
I'm glad that my SMR class matches his. Though I use Perk 3 Greed and Dex, Fast Mags, and a Semtax due to the fact I like to be aggressive.
As always, great video, very well. Thanks for the review of the SMR, I had never used it before, gave it a try after watching this video, and now it has become my rushing gun :D.
Time to get a Semi?? Well played Ahoy, well played.
A little bit of everything. Mainly TDM, Hardpoint, Ground War, Kill Confirmed, and Sharpshooter.
This gun was definitely a pain at first but I gave it time and I got to say this gun is a boss. Its one of those guns thats hard to use but once you get it, its super deadly.
I remember being a 9 year old and using select fire for the first time on this thing... 💀
Thing was a literal beast
I used select fire, the sight i used was the one that marked enemies with a triangle and used “primary greed” i think? To add another attachment that i forgot to the gun
My copy was in German for some reason and i found that insane loadout without understanding anything
Select fire, target finder, and you used the primary gunfighter wildcard for another attachment.
The comment section is the best, nowadays it’s just argueing, I like the humor
Does it bother anyone that i watch your videos right before bed to go to sleep better?
Stu, you can just put a C4 and Shock Charge in the same spot and detonate the C4 when you get the Shock Charge's hitmarker.
This was by far my fav weapon
That punch line was best one yet
Omg been waiting for the best gun in the game review !
after the black ops 2 weapon guides, you should consider doing chivalry: medieval warfare guides.
quite a fun game!
My vision is Morgen Freemen and Xbox Ahoy perfect documentary
I love how the SMR is pretty good in MP but absolute Dog Water in Zombies
Good video as usual.
I've been waiting for this one for awhile, Thanks!
this is a semi-automatic rifle, meaning it fires one round for every time the trigger is pulled, assuming the rifle has ammunition to fire and is not jammed. This time don't think it was meant as a joke, rather then a statement.
I think that we'll see the return of QuadfeedAhoy when he covers the Skorpion Evo.
SMR is my most favorite Assault Rifle in game
I love the SMR, fact to me better than the AN-94. This is a destroyer in FFA.
Class:
Lightweight
Toughness
Dexterity, Tac Mask
SMR:
Quickdraw, Stock, Fast Mags
OR
Same class, but take off dexterity and replace it with either a pistol, lethal/tac, a second perk for perk 1 or 2, or 2 tacs.
but the smr does not need select fire due to its slower fire rate, the fal on the other hand while nerfed the fire rate is still better with select fire
A small suggestion Stu. Pretty sure 99% of the people watching your bonus footage aren't actually watching your clips, they are just listening to your voice! So instead of taking time, mashing clips together, how about just posting your best gameplay? It would be a great insight into how our "teacher" plays!
Stu, you just described one of the campiest class out there.
Thanks xboxahoy for the class setup and after using the class I got the smr gold
I think they did that on purpose so they could add DLC weapons. MW3 said they never could because they didn't have the space and never planned to do so. But now we have the Peacekeeper, and who says there's not more to come?
an smr with a holographic sight is beast
Select fire, suppressor, stock.
A lot of people look down on select fire, understandably, but it does make a lot of people angry and it's a fact they play worse when they're upset. So wooo easy win
Because the center of gravity is further back, behind the shooter's hands, the gun has a greater tendency to kick upward.
