A fast-firing submachine gun able to quickly pepper a target with bullets at close range, using an incredibly short aiming time and cooldown period to fire before the enemy can react. This makes it ideal for hit-and-run attacks, especially in close encounter situations.

The Machine pistol is best utilized in confined quarters such as hallways, due to its limited range and low accuracy. Using it to spray raiders trying to enter a corridor will quickly stop their advance and buy time for a counter-attack. Do not expect the Machine pistol to outright kill very often when you need it to, however; light weapons like this work best when given time to work, wearing targets down with the death of a thousand cuts.
