The Submachine gun is a further developed pistol, capable of using the same ammunition but with higher firerate.
The Submachine gun is a replacement for the [[Pistol]], rendering it obsolete. It fires the same ammunition and deals the same damage, but with a much higher rate of fire. This weapon can easily handle moderate waves of small biters, but destroying nests requires damage upgrades or the more expensive [[Piercing_rounds_magazine|Armor Piercing ammo]]. Regular and aggressive use will devour the player's ammo supply, and the high cost of producing ammo against respawning biters can stifle early game production. Because of these issues the submachine gun is best reserved for personal defense. Players wishing to take the fight to the biters should instead invest in the assault friendly [[Shotgun]].
