10mm SMG

The 10mm submachine gun is a one-handed automatic weapon. Although the in-game description for the 10mm SMG lists a high damage-per-second (DPS), it 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 spread of this weapon requires the wielder to be at close ranges for all of the rounds fired to impact on the target.
