History of Submachine Gun

Submachine Guns are compact, fully automatic weapons built for close-quarters combat, able to hose down multiple enemies at short range. Most fire at 600 or 900 rounds per minute, though exceptions exist such as the Antedate at 324 RPM. Range stats are generally low, from about 16 up to 82.

Submachine Guns occupy the Kinetic and Energy slots. Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary and Exotic versions exist.
