Submachine Guns

Submachine Guns, or SMGs for short, are a type of weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale. The purpose of these weapons is for short range to medium range combat. All SMGs use , aside from the Ray Guns, which use an infinite reserve of .
==Functionality==
Submachine Guns fill the role of a short to medium range weapon and are often used for up close engagements, due to their high damage per second. Some SMGs have first shot accuracy, but due to their low DPS rates and inaccuracy whilst aiming down sights, they are most useful for attacking opponents in close combat. On the contrary, SMGs do have excellent hipfire accuracy. This allows them to excel at close ranges and makes it very easy to hit consistent shots on a target. SMGs added in Chapter 5 fire fast-moving projectiles, while those added before Chapter 5 are hitscan.

==Unreleased==
==Trivia==
*When the Submachine Gun was introduced, it did not come in or rarities, however the Compact SMG existed in only those rarities. Due to this, the guns are separate, but as of Chapter 2: Season 1 the Compact SMG was vaulted, and an and Submachine Gun were introduced with the same model as the Compact SMG, however it had a faster rate of fire but had a smaller magazine size then the Compact SMG.
* The Compact SMG and high tier Submachine Gun share the same model, but use a different render for their icons.
*The Machine SMG received a new look for Chapter 2, despite it not returning as of Chapter 2: Season 5's launch.
*Although not included here, the Legacy Drum Gun was originally an SMG, but was re-classed as an Assault Rifle. Despite this, it is possible to complete SMG based challenges with a Legacy Drum Gun, as well as it sitting beside other SMGs in Creative.
*The Machine SMG was originaly called the Machine Pistol but its name was changed in Chapter 4: Season 1.
*Prior to Update v27.00, if you had the Submachine Gun in or rarities in Creative Mode in an Item Granter or Vending Machine when the P90 variant was removed from the Creative inventory, it would have the same model and icon.
*In Chapter 4: Season 3, you could obtain the Submachine Gun in Team Rumble, where it retained the P90 model.
