The Oldest Guns In Call of Duty (2004-2021)
Call of Duty has always had a wide variety of weapons for players to choose from. Let's take a look at all of the usable pre-1900 weapons across the Call of Duty franchise!

== ADDITIONAL NOTES ==
**brace yourself as there's a lot to unpack here.
Pre-1900 weapons will only be included, otherwise we'd be here all day with all the WWII games in the franchise.
The primary focus is on weapons that can be used by the player. Weapons that cannot be used by the player will not be included.
In this video, a weapon's age is measured by its initial production year (i.e. Winchester Model 1887 was produced in 1887, etc.). Some approximations may be included with dates of manufacture.
Articles of weaponry with limited documentation may be excluded as a last resort.
The dates in the title are only tied to the games covered in this video (the earliest being 2004 and the latest being 2021). This is due to the fact that not every Call of Duty game was included in this video as not all of them have any pre-1900 weapons that can be used by the player.
I will only include a weapon in this video if the depicted in-game weapon itself was manufactured pre-1900 (so it's not an later version of it), OR if said weapon depicts a pre-1900 weapon. For instance, the Mosin-Nagant 1891/30 wouldn't be included as this variant was producted from 1930 to 1945, whereas depictions of the original Mosin-Nagant 1891 (officially known as "3-line rifle M1891") would count as it's a pre-1900 weapon (see sources below).
There is no guarantee that every single pre-1900 weapon (even those usable by the player) will be included in this video, though I am very confident that all of them have been included. I've checked the sources below numerous times. Any corrections, if needed, may either be included here in the description or placed in a pinned comment.
From 7:57, the Model 1887 in Call of Duty: Black Ops was acquired early in this mission using mods on PC. This weapon can only be legitimately used in the final stretch of this mission when Mason escapes from Vorkuta.
A lot of weapons in the post-2019 Call of Duty games (i.e. Vanguard, MWII, etc.) are also featured Warzone with minor differences such as weapon sounds. For this reason, and to not draw out the length of this video, I've excluded Warzone completely from this video. See the sources via the pinned comments on this video to see the Warzone gameplay I was originally going to include in this video.
