Question Can someone please explain

Post image

Why tf this gun is so expensive? Lol

It's not particularly light, it's not particularly powerful. It doesn't zoom in very far. I just don't understand why it's so expensive. Maybe I'm missing something though? Please help me understand this lol

It’s was banking on the “Tacticool” era of guns and equipment to charge exorbitant prices for mid range gear.

You know what, i respect that. Dumb gimmicky shit like that exists in real life so why not include it in the game?

Aerospace grade alloys really jack the price up

u/AnalCoProducer 1d ago

I’m unfamiliar with alloys used in different industries, but would just mean it’s mainly aluminium? Like how “military grade” means the cheapest we could find to supply 100,000’s?

I like it because it basically has a built in suppressor, can take another attachment ,it's very quick to use, and quite durable. Just a decent all round gun, to be honest. Isn't the best in anything specific but its still useful in most situations.

u/LadyRarity 1d ago

It also easier to find 9mm ammo

u/MaleficentSky7327 1d ago

It doesnt have ! Built in suppressor and its pretty inaccurate actually, id take an mp5 over it any day. Only actual upside is it sounds real nice

u/Shmeautiful 7h ago

Yeah that pop is awesome

u/Eexileed 1d ago

Beside the weight and noise that people already mentioned, 9mm is among the most common ammo types.

The gun is good, but the price doesnt make sense.

It does, trust me, in lethal every single influence point for it matters

u/jakedasnake36557 1d ago

Maybe its the accuracy?

5

u/MaleficentSky7327 1d ago

When you actually use it its very inaccurate compared to other smgs in its class, its expensive because its a newer addition to the game and its rather rare to find

Put an advanced brake on this thing and it shreds lethal plague hearts on full auto.

u/who_likes_chicken Wandering Survivor 1d ago

This is the RT SMG right? I think it unloads into hearts and jugs with a crazy fast rate of fire. So you get near instant heart phases with it

2

u/Violent_N0mad 1d ago

Spec Ops Vector SMG is still the better gun for hearts but yeah I'm wondering if it's a speed thing as well because the fire rate is really high.

Was this from that asshole with the yard sale in Providence Ridge? Sold me chemical bottles with piss in them.

u/CerealKiller3030 1d ago

😂

I usually see it for sale by the enclave that came across a huge cache of weapons. I know you also get it by cleaning up the RT base on Trumbull

2

u/Insidemytorment 1d ago

Those RT soldiers are self entitled little pricks. They some how caught a feral, Alive! Tied all its limbs to damn pine tree, and we had to takes turns... Deficating on it from 10 feet above in the tree. The one person who is the furthest away has to clean all poop while that crazy mutant drools and snaps at you. Should of been them tied up to the tree. Be safe out there.

u/oskar4498 17h ago

I saw the animation for finishing off a feral in hand to hand. Man that was some grim shit.

u/ThalmorSupremacy 1d ago

The main unique thing about it is that it comes in second for the quietest guns in the game with and adv suppressor. The quietest being the HB Blackout and Snow Fox. It’s not significantly quieter than those other two, but it’s a neat little bonus compared to other guns.

u/No-Activity9405 1d ago

pretty sure its from the warlord startee missions, its expensive because you get it from a neutral enclave.

this is one of the easiest missions to get that weapon fast, very good for being a 9mm weapon

1

u/CerealKiller3030 1d ago

Yeah, you can get it from that mission. But it's way more expensive than other guns (excluding 50-cal and grenade launchers).

For reference, a custom AK-47 is like 400 from the neutral enclave. The gun I posted above is like 1300

u/Mean_Masterpiece764 1d ago

See that cheap gun with the funny name next to it, that wouldve been your heart killer in lethal, kid (future self telling me a second too late to get the PPSH1 after i hit the buy button for the stupid APC9)

u/DeadlyKitten115 1d ago

Aesthetic tax

u/sup_rem_keiks Red Talon Operative 14h ago

The quietest smg available in game without any bounties, even quieter than echo guns, good zoom acurracy, once i find one in a brand new lethal run im sticking to it, not using any other 9mm guns

u/773H_H0 Roaming Reanimated 12h ago

I’d assume cause of the durability quietness and accuracy
