EIGHTIES RIDER's video: GTA SA - SMG Locations part 1 Los Santos

The SMG is a submachine gun featured in all the games in the Grand Theft Auto series since Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It is referred to as MP in the latter (or as MP5 in the PlayStation 2 version), while in all other Grand Theft Auto games it is called SMG. In Grand Theft Auto V, it is manufactured by Hawk & Little. True to its name, the MP5 is based on the weapon of the same name, with each game having a variant of said weapon: In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the weapon is modeled after an MP5A3, and is available in a grey color. In Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, it is modeled after the compact MP5K, which has no stock. It is fitted with what appears to be an unusable flashlight. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, it is based on the Reverse Stretch (a civilian version of the MP5K with a collapsible stock), but the model also contains parts of the MP5SD. The prominent characteristic of the MP5 is that is practically larger than the Micro SMG and often means better arsenal. Since its inception in GTA Vice City, the weapon is favored by the FBI. All renditions of the MP5 hold 30 rounds per magazine. Grand Theft Auto IV In Grand Theft Auto IV, the SMG is modeled after the MP10, an American copy of the MP5 made by Special Weapons Inc. It lacks a stock on the rear and appears to have a flashlight attachment on the front, although unusable. Again, the weapon is adopted by the law enforcement, most notably NOOSE and FIB. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars "Hits harder and is more controllable than a Micro SMG, but has fewer rounds in the magazine. ...The professional's choice." ―Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars description. In Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, the weapon is modeled back after the MP5A3, judging by the distinctive details compared to the MP5 from the 3D Universe. Grand Theft Auto V In Grand Theft Auto V, the model that appears is the MP5A3, signified by the three-position trigger group and retractable stock. It is, however, fitted with a rectangular handguard supposedly from a Taurus MT-40, has angular iron sights similar to those from a CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 and appears to have much shorter magazines and a deeper magazine well in comparison with the real-life MP5. The weapon is again favored by many law enforcement agencies, being the NOOSE as the prominent users. Performance 3D Universe The SMG is one of the most powerful submachine guns in the games it appeared, with devastating effects to both the player and non-player targets alike. It is arguably a better substitute for the Micro SMG, holding more damage per round. However, like the Micro SMG (namely the full-sized version in GTA VC/LCS/VCS), the MP5 has the disadvantage of disallowing the player from discharging the weapon while running, allowing the player to only stand or stride while taking aim or shooting. 3D Universe Overview
