The Submachine Gun, often abbreviated to SMG, is the default secondary weapon for the Sniper. It appears as a heavily modified Mauser M712 machine pistol, with several parts resembling the WW2-era Sten and MP40 submachine guns.
This weapon deals a low amount of damage per round, but has a high rate of fire and moderate accuracy, firing 10 bullets per second. It enables the player to engage enemies at closer ranges in which the Sniper Rifle would be insufficient. The Submachine Gun suffers from a damage falloff over distance similar to the Pistol or Syringe Gun.
Like the Pistol and Revolver, the SMG fires a single, perfectly accurate shot down the crosshair before "bullet spread" takes effect. Waiting 1.25 seconds will reset the accuracy and give you another accurate shot.
