Part 29

Explore the best sub-machine guns and assault rifles in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, including the Micro-SMG, Scorpion, SMG, AK-47, and Assault Rifle.

These lightweight weapons can take down anyone very quickly. These are the only weapons that can be used while in a car, motorcycle, boat, or Jetski. You can also gain additional ammo when switching between sub-machine guns.

Sub-Machine Guns:

• Mac-10 — This gun has a fast rate of fire but a short effective range. It's also pretty weak, resulting in lots of rounds to kill someone. You can run and aim at the same time like you can with a Pistol.
• Micro-SMG — Appears After: Soldier. Cost: $600 - Downtown Ammu-Nation, $450 - After completion of Phil's Shooting Range. Notes: One of the better sub-machine guns, it has a good rate of fire and accuracy. It also has a slightly faster reload than the other sub-machine guns. Because you have to use two hands when firing, you can't aim and run at the same time while using the Micro-SMG.
• Scorpion — Appears After: O, Brothel, Where Art Thou? Cost: $350 - Stonewall J's, $270 - After completion of Phil's Shooting Range. Notes: This has the largest magazine of this group and is more accurate and powerful than the Mac-10 but has a slower rate of fire. Like the Pistol and the Mac-10, you can also aim and run at the same time when using the Scorpion.
• SMG — Appears After: From Zero to Hero. Cost: $2,500 - Ocean Beach Ammu-Nation, $1,875 - After completion of Phil's Shooting Range. Notes: The best sub-machine gun in the group. Has a high rate of accuracy and fire making it preferred choice for drive-bys. Because you have to use two hands when firing, you can't aim and run at the same time.

Assault Rifles:

Both of the assault rifles listed here use the same ammo so you can increase the amount of ammo you get by switching rifles.

• AK-47 — Appears after: From Zero to Hero. Cost: $4,200 - Ocean Beach Ammu-Nation, $3,150 - After completion of Phil's Shooting Range. Notes: This powerful Russian made assault rifle has a good rate of fire and decent range.
• Assault Rifle — Appears After: From Zero to Hero. Cost: $5,400 - North Point Mall Ammu-Nation, $4,050 - After completion of Phil's Shooting Range. Notes: This has a very fast rate of fire and better range but a small clip which requires
