The silenced .22 SMG is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics[]

Silenced 22 SMG blown up lighter

Silenced .22 SMG expanded

A pan-magazine-fed, silenced submachine gun chambered for .22LR rounds. It has a high rate of fire and a capacity of 180 rounds, which can be increased to 240. However, the SMG shares the common weakness of most shotguns and automatic weapons in Fallout: New Vegas, in that much of its theoretical power can be negated by the value of an enemy's DT. In addition to losing much of its potential damage output, the high spread of this weapon requires the user to be at close range for the best chance to hit the target with all of the rounds in the magazine.

It is a distinctive weapon with its pan magazine, which sits atop the gun rather than under. The silencer is integrated into the barrel with no modifications required.

Durability[]

The silenced .22 SMG can fire a total of about 4,995 standard rounds, the equivalent of 28 reloads, from full condition before breaking.

Notes[]

  • With the expanded drums mod, the iron sights also appear to be modified slightly, being raised slightly higher to accommodate the larger pan magazine.
  • Similar to the 12.7mm SMG, the silenced .22 SMG is one of few weapons that have its own unique reload animation. No other gun in the game shares its reload animation, nor does it have a unique counterpart.
  • The weapon does more damage per pound of ammo than any other automatic gun in Hardcore mode, at 1,184/lb.
