UMP45

The **UMP45** is a Submachine Gun released on December 17th, 2019 on the Ice Carnival 2019 update. It is purchasable in the store for  6000 and is the most recent SMG to be added in the store.

## Description

The UMP45 is an unconventional submachine gun notable for its higher firepower but low accuracy and fire rate compared to other guns in the category. It is like a bridge between a SMG and a Rifle. When maxed out it has the power of 43, the highest of any submachine gun that isn't the Defender or Gentleman's Briefcase.

Compared to other SMGs the UMP is a bit slower and is also more inaccurate and doesn't function like many SMGs such as the Razer or UZI. It's other stats are unmatched with a high effective range and power.

## Gameplay Tips

The UMP45's lower accuracy means you will need to compensate for it and not hold fire so much. If you are a Rifle main you can imagine using a FAMAS with +10 accuracy on your rifle armor to see how it would be like to play with this SMG.

Because of it's low clip count combined with it's decent fire rate, you can run out of ammo very quickly. Pre-fire is not something you should try and do often, and reload when you are playing safely. A reload armour buff or clips armour buff can mitigate these issues. In very long distances you should still tap fire, but you will not need to tap fire as much as other rifles.

The best armor buffs for the UMP45 are power, armor penetration, fire rate and clips. If you are using armor for lower accuracy SMG sets, you could also invest in Accuracy boosting armor as well. For cards, Continuous Shot, Balance Strike and Long Range Strike are the best.

## Appearance and Origin

*This section references 'Heckler & Koch UMP' from en.wikipedia.org.*

The **Heckler & Koch UMP** (*Universale Maschinenpistole*, German for "Universal Machine Pistol") is a submachine gun developed and manufactured by Heckler & Koch. Heckler & Koch developed the UMP as a lighter and cheaper successor to the MP5, though both remain in production. The UMP has been adopted for use by various countries including Brazil, Canada, and the United States. A small number of UMPs chambered in .45 ACP were officially purchased by the United States Army Special Forces, with some of the weapons seeing limited service, making them among the small number of submachine guns deployed by the U.S. military in recent conflicts.

In-game, the UMP45 looks like a complete re-creation of the real life model. However unlike most representations of the UMP45 in media or in games, this does not have a fore grip.

## History

The UMP45 is the last SMG to be added in the store currently and is often undervalued and underappreciated even by loyal submachine gun users. It is often used in niche setups or is purchased by people who enjoy how the weapon looks. Because of the lack of representations or skins, the gun has been forgotten with age.

## Trivia

* The UMP45, manufactured by Heckler and Koch in real life, is the third submachine gun they have produced. Their other two products, the MP5 and the MP7 are also available in the game. This means HK have the most representation of CnR weapons by their real life weapon manufacturer.
