Copied from TWL's site:

Recording a Demo

1) Press ~ to open console.
2) Enter /record DemoName (i.e. /record BIF-013008)

* All players should start recording upon entering a server. When you leave the server after the match, recording will automatically stop. Otherwise Press ~ and /stoprecord to stop.

Watching Demo's

1) Locate your Default Demo's Folder ( i.e. \Call of Duty 4\main\demos )
2) Copy your Demo ( Right click on Demo Select COPY )
3) Locate your PAM4 Folder ( i.e. \Call of Duty 4\Mods\pam4 )
4) Create a Folder called demos within the pam4 folder.
5) Paste the copy of your demo within this new folder.
6) Start CoD4 and run game in the Pam4 MOD. ( mods -> pam4 -> launch)
7) Press ~ to open console.
8) Type /demo DemoName ( i.e. /demo BIF-013008 )

* When watching a demo, you are unable to fast-forward, rewind or pause.

Now if you are not on a modded server, you do this:

How does it work:

1. Make sure your console is enabled

2. Start recording: Open console and type: "/record filename"

3. Stop recording: Open console and type: "/stoprecord"

Now you have a movie of yourself but you have to perform the next steps to make it playback:

1. Your recording is stored in: "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\main\demos"

2. It should be in: "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\Mods\ModWarfare\demos"
If there is no "demos" folder just create it and paste your recording into that map.

3. Now run COD4 Multiplayer, then select MODS then MODWARFARE

4. Open console and type: "/demo filename"

You are now watching your own movie!!!

The great thing is that it is minimal in size, so no gigabytes that get eaten away by Fraps or Gamecam...Have Fun!

EDIT ADD: How to see your framerate in COD4?

Open console and type "/cg_draw FPS 1" and "/cg_draw FPS 0" to turn it off again.

This is a cool demo viewer:
