Description[]
An SMG-5 (sub-machine gun) is a rapid fire ranged weapon, which can be crafted or found throughout the world of 7 Days to Die in containers, such as weapon bags, Gun Safes, Crates, and Loot bags. The SMG uses 9mm Ammo and will hold ~28 bullets. Despite being called a sub-machine gun, it uses the Agility statistic shared with Pistol style perks instead, since it uses 9mm Ammo.
Combat[]
'During combat, the SMG-5 is a very effective short to medium range weapon, eliminating most enemies within seconds due to its accuracy and high rate of fire. Currently, it is one of the most effective weapons against large groups of Zombies due to its accuracy, large magazine, high rate of fire, and quick reloading speed. It also boasts minimal recoil, making it particularly accurate when aiming down the sight.
An SMG will reload automatically or it can be done manually by pressing the reload key (default key 'R').
