Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (also known as CoD:MW3 or MW3) is the eighth installment of the Call of Duty series, and the third main entry in the Modern Warfare sub-franchise, continuing the story of Modern Warfare 2. The game has variously been developed by Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer Games and Raven Software, and will be published by Activision for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
The following weapons are featured in the video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3:
The H&K USP45 returns and can be seen on a character's back in the multiplayer world premiere trailer. It is sometimes equipped with an under-barrel mounted flashlight.
The SA Professional 1911 appears in the hands of Price in gameplay of the Prague level, however is unknown if it can be used by the player, or in the multiplayer.
The H&K MP5A2 is a new weapon shown in the screenshots. In the screenshot, the MP5A2 rail system seems to be modeled after the real life Knights Armament rail system for the MP5.
A MP5K makes an appearance in the newest Spec-Ops Survival mode trailer. Note that the variant depicted in-game features a railed handguard and a MP5A2 buttstock.
The TDI Vector can be seen slung over a soldier's shoulder in a trailer. However, it is unknown if it will be usable in multiplayer or is single player only.

FN P90TR
An FN P90TR (Triple Rail) fitted with a reflex sight can be seen lying on the ground in the Reveal trailer. The P90 is also seen in the hands of Russian submarine crewmen in the gameplay demo.
A customized AA-12 shotgun with rail mounts and a somewhat pointless spare shell holder has been seen in gameplay trailers and in the E3 gameplay footage.
The sawed-off Winchester Model 1887 from MW2 has been confirmed and was seen in Survival gameplay. It has been heavily modified and now features ghost ring sights and synthetic furniture.
The M4A1 model used in the game features flip-up iron sights, a Magpul MOE Carbine Stock, a Magpul 20-round STANAG magazine and a customized charging handle. It can be equipped with a SureShot reflex sight, EOTech XPS Holographic sight, EOTech flip-to-side magnifier and / or a RIS foregrip. Some NPCs seen in the 'Reveal' trailer were instead carrying the M4A1 model used in Modern Warfare 2, though this is likely to simply have been a recycled model used during development. As in many games, the fire selector is shown on semi-auto even though the weapon fires in full-auto.
Recent footage shows the player will be able to manually operate the flip-to-side magnifier at will.
The Colt CM901 was first seen used by the player character in the Spec-Ops' Survival mode trailer, later seen used in gameplay footage of the Call of Duty: XP event. It is seen fitted with a shorter barrel, EOTech XPS Holographic sight, EOTech flip-to-side magnifier, and a Magpul 20LR PMAG.
The fake AKS-74U from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare seems to have returned to its second sequel. The mix and mash of different Kalashnikovs appears in game still being incorrectly referred to as an "AK-74u", which doesn't exist, and will probably be incorrectly called a submachine gun. It is modeled on the JG "AK Beta-F" airsoft rifle, which is an AKS-47 with a very, very short front end, an AKS-74U gas block/front sight, flash hider, and rear sight, and black polymer furniture with an RIS rail on the handguard. The version in game appears to have bakelite magazines, which led to some to believe it actually was a 74, however the curve of the magazine give away that it is in fact based on a 47.
The Remington ACR has been spotted in the recent trailer for Call of Duty's 'Elite' service. In the Spec Ops Survival trailer, "ACR 6.8" is listed as a purchasable weapon, implying that the in-game version is chambered in 6.8mm SPC.

Note the projection in front of the magazine release catch and the lack of an ejection port, this is the same modeling mistake that the AR-15 variants in the previous Modern Warfare games have.
Heckler & Koch G36C
A H&K G36C is seen shortly after the armory list is shown in the trailer for Spec-Ops' Survival mode.
A Remington RSASS can be seen in screenshots of the class menu.

Barrett M107
The Barrett M107 can be seen in footage of the the Call of Duty XP Multiplayer event. It is incorrectly modeled with ejection ports on both sides of the receiver.
An Accuracy International AWM can be seen in the Call of Duty XP Multiplayer event. It is incorrectly called a "L118A" ingame. It is not, as previously suggested, a regular Arctic Warfare, as it has a folding stock and a fluted barrel, both lacked by the conventional AW.
Despite being called "MK46" in-game, this weapon is actually an FN M249 Para with the RIS handguard of a Mk 46. The machine gun can be seen in the hands of an enemy player in the multiplayer world premiere trailer.
The player character starts the first mission with a Heckler & Koch XM25. It is shown very inaccurately, simply firing impact-detonated rounds with none of the real weapon's HEAB functionality, and rather than being semi-automatic it is bolt-action with the player character operating the charging handle after every shot.
A standalone Heckler & Koch M320 grenade launcher can be seen in the multiplayer premiere. It is unclear at this stage if it can also be mounted as an attachment.
Westbrook destroys a Russian jamming tower using a bundle of four AN/M14 incendiary grenades attached together with duct tape and rigged with a detonator.
The M18 smoke grenade was used several times by the player character in the newest Spec-Ops Survival mode trailer, used to mark targets for an AC-130 gunship.

M18A1 Claymore
The M18A1 Claymore was seen in the newest trailer of Spec-Ops' Survival mode.
The DShK heavy machine gun was first seen in the 'Reveal' trailer, mounted on a Russian T-90 main battle tank (despite the real-life T-90 being equipped with either the NSV or Kord heavy machine guns) during a huge battle in Germany. In the latest multiplayer trailer, a possible DShK is mounted on an M5-like sentry gun auto turret.
The Dillon Aero M134 Minigun is an emplaced weapon returns from the previous Modern Warfare titles, and was seen first in the "Reveal" trailer, later on E3's gameplay demo. it should be noted that the minigun is incorrectly mounted on the right doorway of the UH-60 Black Hawk instead of directly on its right window. This mistake also appears in Modern Warfare 2. The Minigun can be also seen mounted as an M5 sentry gun auto-turret like in Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Hind helicopters in the game seem to be a fictional variant of the export Hind-E (Mi-35M), armed with both a chin-mounted single-barrel Gsh-23 23mm cannon and a twin Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2K mounted on the right-hand side of the fuselage.

Mk 19 Grenade Launcher
The Mk 19 Grenade Launcher was spotted in the newest trailer of Spec-Ops' Survival mode, mounted on a stand which can be moved by the player character.
