The Compact SMG, previously known as the Mini SMG, is a fast-firing submachine gun that will make its return in GTA 6.
This weapon was first introduced in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, and now it’s set to appear once again in the streets of Vice City.
Manufactured by Hawk & Little, the Compact SMG is a machine pistol designed for close to mid-range combat.
It has a very high rate of fire and delivers strong damage, making it ideal for fast-paced fights and quick getaways.
However, because of its small size and high recoil, it lacks the accuracy needed for long-range battles, meaning players will get the best results when using it up close.
The design of the Compact SMG seems to be inspired by the Škorpion, a real-world machine pistol created in Czechoslovakia in 1959.
Its compact frame and rapid-fire ability make it a favorite choice for players who like to stay mobile and aggressive.
While Rockstar Games hasn’t officially confirmed the Compact SMG for GTA 6 yet, it was spotted in the September 2022 leaks, strongly hinting at its return to the game.
