The Silenced .22 SMG is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.
Gameplay
The Silenced .22 SMG, as its name suggests is a submachine gun chambered in .22LR. It has a high rate of fire and a capacity of 180 rounds, which can be increased to 240. However, the SMG shares the common weakness of most shotguns and automatic weapons in Fallout: New Vegas, in that much of its theoretical power is negated by the Damage Threshold system. In addition to losing much of its damage, the high Weapon Spread of this weapon requires the player character to be at close ranges for all of the rounds fired to impact the target.
Durability
The Silenced .22 SMG can fire a total of about 4995 standard rounds, the equivalent of 28 reloads, from full condition before breaking.
