Trivia

• Modular Monarch Pistol resembles the Norinco Type 80 Pistol (A modernized variant of the Mauser C96 that was produced in the early 1980s). Many of the weapon's in-game features follow the real life weapon such as the differing rates of fire (It was select-fire and could change between single shot to fully automatic) as well the barrel's proneness to overheating, as shown when firing while ADS.
• In the Day of Doom Limited Time Mode, the Mythic Modular Monarch Pistol is the only version of the weapon capable of using a Thermal Optic.
• If the Modular Monarch Pistol's sounds don't properly load, it will default to reusing the Legacy Hand Cannon and High-tier Pistol's firing sounds when ADS and Hip-firing respectively.
