Submachine Guns are almost like a substitute for Handguns, as you will most likely be using them a lot more once you obtain one. While the range is lower than Handguns, they offer much higher firing rate and at the Hitman level, they offer the ability to wield two weapons.
TEC-9
CLIP SIZE | COST |
50 shots (100 at Hitman) | $300 for 60 rounds |
The Tec-9 is a great weapon earlier in the game, as it can easily take down groups of enemies. It has a high firing speed and average strength, so it is easily overshadowed by stronger weapons later in the game. Of course, it is relatively cheap to buy more ammo, and you gain the ability to dual-wield at the Hitman skill level.

MICRO SMG
CLIP SIZE | COST |
50 shots (100 at Hitman) | $500 for 60 rounds |
The Micro SMG is a step up when compared to the Tec-9, as it fires faster and does more damage than that weapon. While it is not as powerful as the SMG, it does have the added bonus of being a lot cheaper than it, as well as having the option to dual-wield it once you hit the Hitman skill level.

SMG
CLIP SIZE | COST |
30 shots | $2000 for 90 rounds |
The SMG is definitely the most powerful of all the Submachine Guns, and it's the most accurate. One of the main problems is that it's quite expensive to refill your ammo, as well as not gaining the dual-wield ability at Hitman skill level like the other two guns.
