Are AKIMBO MACHINE PISTOLS The Easiest Weapons In COD?

I really believe that Akimbo Machine pistols such as the MP9, FMG9, Scorpion are OP, but instead of nerfing their damage, nerf the ammo count. These guns pwn everything else out there IMO. I think that its ridiculous that I can clear whole rooms over and over.
They r easy unless ur the otherside of the map from the person u wana kill, then they suck, obviously. I dont really want them nerfed as you can normally hear someone firing off akimbo's and i just pick them off at distance if poss.
Personnally if i use mach pistols i use mp9 with red dot as i hate the fmg akimbo they could not b more unskilled if they tryed.
i think they are. if i'm having a bad match i use them to keep me from totaly stinking up the place for me and the team i'm playing on.
These Akimbo weapons are overpowered, the Akimbo attachment should be removed...

Your site could do with more detail theres a lot of text which amounts to use what the top dude is using.
Recon could do with a better rep as well it's more likely to get the beginner that revenge kill plus it's great for lighting up campers
One thing I've noticed is that people who use these often get a LOT of kills but they die more than most other people as well. I personally hate the stupid things and can't believe I get killed by them constantly even after 2 nerfs. IW nerfed the crap out of the Striker in one go but still can't get the akimbo machine pistols right.
The Striker is perfect now though I agree it is a shell of what it was. I still get killed with it quite a bit just due to the ROF and when the other team is pushing the spawn really hard I switch to it and still do pretty good.
To the OP. I think in cqc there is nothing better or easier to use then the AMPs. I get hozed by em all of the time and lose to them quite a bit cqc even with a shotgun. Shotguns cannot beat them head to head unless the person using them sucks or you get the jump on em.
Really? I haven't really noticed much of a Striker difference...oh well...
I hate the damned things and would love to say they're the easiest weapons to use but it's just not true.
Even though they have ridiculous god damned range they still require you to get somewhat close to your target leaving you open from most angles. The truth is they excel in certain parts of the game while other guns excel in other areas. The ACR is the easiest gun to use as it can perform VERY well in its intended area and performs decently in all other areas. But ARs have always been the all around better guns anyway. The Akimbo feature needs to go, it adds unnecessary range and encourages spray and pray.
Honestly, the majority of guns are viable the increase in damage makes sure of that.
The ACR is IS extremely easy to use, but sometimes it doesn't cut it at close range.
While Akimbos may not work in every environment, when it comes to using them in general, they definitely are one of, if not the easiest things to use once you acquire them. (SMGs being equal to or just behind them to me, especially given all the whoring of them this past month or so.)
At least ARs and LMGs usually require the user to ADS most of the time for accurate kills while the Akimbos just need you to face in the enemy's general direction and hold L and R. Even at medium range or even slightly longer ranges, you can kill with Akimbos pretty easily, if not by the fire rate allowing more numerous shots to hit the enemy, then by lucky headshots due to the wider spraying. The FMG9 Headshot challenges were probably the fastest ones I completed because of that.
