12.7mm Submachine Gun

The  is a large caliber SMG in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
More common in higher levels, the is a heavy duty large caliber SMG. It features a unique top mounted magazine: the magazine lies perpendicular to the weapon.

The boasts a high DPS, but it suffers from a small magazine, low rate of fire and an extremely large spread. However, it is one of only two fully automatic weapons which are capable of being silenced, the other being the Silenced .22 SMG.

Unlike other submachine guns, the is classified as a two-handed automatic weapon; because of this, traveling with the weapon unholstered will slow the player's movement speed. This also causes the weapon to be holstered on the back, rather than on the hip as with other SMGs, and also affects it with regard to the Jury Rigging perk, putting it in the same repair class as the service rifle and light machine gun, instead of with one-handed automatics like the 10mm SMG and 9mm SMG.

The 12.7mm SMG is exactly as durable as the weaker 10mm SMG; it can fire 1244 standard rounds before breaking.
