The Sniper

The SMG (acronym for Submachine Gun) is the default secondary weapon for the Sniper. It is a small, stylized submachine gun with an oversized ironsight and long magazine.

The SMG deals a low amount of damage per shot, but has a high rate of fire and accuracy, firing 10 bullets per second at 600 rounds per minute.

Like the Pistol and Revolver, the SMG fires a single, perfectly accurate shot before "bullet spread" takes effect. Waiting 1.25 seconds resets the accuracy and provides another accurate shot.
