Skorpion

The Skorpion (officially Škorpion vz. 61) is a sub-machine gun that is featured in Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4, Far Cry 5, Far Cry New Dawn and Far Cry 6.
==Far Cry 3==
This low-calibre machine pistol is an effective weapon for a new player. Its low cost makes it effective with a sound suppressor for stealth missions and it may be useful for players later in the game being the only SMG that can be fired while on a Zipline - although the number of times when the player is faced with enemies while riding a Zipline is minuscule and doubtfully justifies carrying around the weakest SMG. The Skorpion is unlocked for free use after deactivating 2 Radio Towers.
===Characteristics===
The Skorpion is a great SMG for how early it is unlocked. It has decent damage, fire rate, and magazine size. However it should be noted that unlike the sub-machine guns like the A2000, that this weapon is treated like a machine pistol in-game. Because of this, it should not be used outside of close range.
===Paint Jobs===
The look of Skorpion could be customized with one of six available paint schemes. Each scheme costs $200 and does not affect weapon performance.

===Tips===
* With low damage, range and accuracy, this weapon is best used for close combat or as a panic weapon. The Skorpion quickly loses to higher grade firearms as they become available.
* The Skorpion is the only automatic weapon that can be used on a zipline.
* Its rate of fire is viciously high, so extended magazines are highly advisable.

==Far Cry 4==
The Skorpion makes a returning appearance in Far Cry 4. It is unlocked at the first store. With the inclusion of the ability to use sidearms from vehicles it becomes one of the better sidearms in the early game, though outside of this role it is rather mediocre. Furthermore, it is considerably less useful than it's Far Cry 3 incarnation as you cannot equip it with a suppressor. However, it beats out the A99 in terms of ammo, as the Skorpion uses SMG ammo, which has a much larger reserve pool than the handgun ammo the A99 draws from.
===Signature Version===
The Stinger is the signature version of the Skorpion. It is unlocked after destroying 2 Pagan's Wrath convoys. The Stinger sports an extended magazine, optical sight, and sound suppressor. This makes it a great weapon for quickly ambushing targets at close range while remaining hidden without having to sacrifice a non-sidearm slot. Although the Rebel deals higher damage and has larger magazines than the Stinger, the Stinger makes up for this in drawing from the player's pool of SMG ammo instead of handgun ammo, which the Rebel burns through very quickly. This makes the Stinger more economical to use, as enemies commonly carry SMG's, thus making resupplies much less vital than with the Rebel.

==Far Cry 5==
The Skorpion makes another appearance in Far Cry 5. It appears in the "Friend For Hire" trailer for the game, where it is being wielded by a player as they go down a Zipline.
==Far Cry New Dawn==
Optimized Skorpion
The Skorpion returns in Far Cry New Dawn. The Optimized Skorpion is a rank 3 weapon. It has a scope mounted on the gun itself, with duct tape wrapped around the grip. it also has slender copper wiring attached to the body surrounding the barrel. It also has metal fixtures keeping the magazine sealed.
==Far Cry 6==
The Skorpion makes another appearance in Far Cry 6 . It is one of the first Auto-pistols unlocked in the game, and it quickly becomes obselete as it's low damage and mediocre magazine capacity falls short of other Auto-pistols in Far Cry 6 such as the signature ROCOCO LOCO, which can be unlocked early trough Los bandido Missions
==Trivia==
===Far Cry 3===
*It's also one the three unusable SMGs for the AI in the game, the other two being the MP5 and Vector .45 ACP.
