Battlefield Hardline: AUG Para & M12S SMG Guide

AntMag.NET

This section details two submachine guns available in Battlefield Hardline: the AUG Para and the M12S. Both weapons are part of the Getaway DLC and have specific unlock requirements for criminals and cops.

AUG Para

Ammo: 9x19mm
Capacity: 32+1
Fire-rate: 750 RPM
Reload: 2.30 secs
Unlocks: $50,000 [criminals] / 1,250 kills with it and buy license [cops]

Summary: The AUG SMG shares its damage model with the MP5K but has an inferior fire-rate, recoil, and accuracy, though it boasts a larger magazine. Its reload times are decent for a bullpup, but hipfire accuracy is lacking. The short TTK is effective only up to 8 meters; beyond that, its average fire-rate and hipfire performance hinder its effectiveness. High recoil, low minimum damage, and poor accuracy make it unsuitable for longer distances. The AUG Para comes without attachments.

Trivia: The AUG Para is a 9mm SMG variant of the AUG assault rifle. The model in Hardline features accessory rails, resembling the later AUG A3 Para XS.

M12S

Ammo: 9x19mm
Capacity: 32
Fire-rate: 550 RPM
Reload: 2.80 secs
Unlocks: $60,000 [cops] / 1,250 kills with it and buy license [criminals]

Summary: The M12S shares a high damage profile with the Uzi, M/45, and UMP9 but has the lowest rate of fire and slowest reload among SMGs. It offers incredibly low recoil and excellent moving/hipfire spread. The iron sights are noted as being good. The minimum damage was patched in March 2016, reducing the hit kill count at longer ranges.

Trivia: Manufactured by Beretta, the M12S was used by various police agencies and military forces. Hardline's M12 is modeled with distinctive grey coloring and a short magazine, with a foldable stock that can be deployed with an attachment.
