Silenced SMG

A double-barreled suppressor-toting lead-slinger, the Silenced SMG is a steady start on the path of automatics.

Overview
Chewing through the ammo pool for Light Rounds, the Silenced SMG is a low-tier early weapon good for spraying a crowd, but lacking the later-game punch or capacity of proper rifles. The Drudge, Razor, or Strider may be easy enough to dispatch - but throw in the Imp or Raptor and the situation starts to call for weapon juggling, lest you lose your combo.

An Assault Rifle or true SMG will probably bust more heads - but until you find 'em, it'll do.

Upgraded
You can this weapon into the B.A.B.E. like any other, and when it comes out it'll be souped up in some spectacular manner. However, it is unclear exactly what name, stats, and abilities the upgraded SSMG will have.

Locations

 * The gun can be found for free in the bunker of the first level, next to an inventory upgrade behind a breakable wall and an extra life behind the pillar.

Trivia

 * Mechanically speaking, the mechanism of the gun seems to be open bolt blowback design similar to an Uzi - though the twin barrels raise questions as to how it feeds, and how the altfire works.
 * Before Stealth was removed as a mechanic, the Silenced SMG would have received buffs in concealment - or at least, been a vital tool for remaining hidden.
