Submachine Guns

19 platformsPatch 1.0.0.142.19

High cyclic rate pistol-calibre platforms for close-quarters clearing.

Role and how to choose

What submachine guns are for

Pistol-caliber, high fire rate, cheap to run. Inside buildings they trade hits faster than anything else; past 30–40 m the caliber runs out of penetration before the rifle rounds do.

Fire rate and ergonomics decide SMG fights, and the ammo table decides whether you can go through the armour you meet. Check the best-ammo page for the specific gun before you queue. Every weapon below has a best-ammo page built from its caliber ladder, and the ammo chart holds the full table.
