The SMG (acronym for Submachine Gun) is the default secondary weapon for the Sniper. It appears to be a modified MAT-49 Template:Botignore gun, with oversized sights and no stock.
The SMG deals a low amount of damage per shot, but has a high rate of fire and surprisingly high accuracy, firing 10 bullets per second at 600 rounds per minute. It enables the player to engage enemies at closer ranges in which the Sniper Rifle would be ineffective. Despite its appearance, it actually has a lower DPS (damage per second) than the Pistol, but a quicker reload time and less spread, along with a higher rate of fire.
Like the Pistol and the Revolver, the SMG fires a single, perfectly accurate shot before "bullet spread" takes effect. Waiting 1.25 seconds will reset the accuracy and provide another accurate shot.
