The Kalashnikov SMG-47 is a 7.62x25mm Tokarev submachinegun designed, produced and marketed by Kalashnikov Inc. in Oceanyka and for the Oceanykan market. It closely resembles the AKS-47 in its operating mechanism but toned town for a pistol calibre. As far as SMGs go, it is actually pretty well-manufactured and ergonomic, owing largely to the competitive (by Oceanykan standards) manufacturing quality of Kalashnikov Inc. It is also highly modular and can be found in gun stores across the continent in various other calibres, such as 9x19mm Parabellum, .380 ACP and even .45 ACP. Due to its success, the Soviet Red Army has begun trials to issue this weapon to a number of specialised personnel such as police officers, the Spetsnaz and high-profile security.

Do note that penalties from firing at long-range apply as per the Basic Rules (TBD).
It is impossible to perform automatic fire at a target that is at Very Long Range (VLR) or Extreme Range (EXR) without a stable firing platform.
Common Attributes - National
Guerrilla Guns - Soviet Small Arms (CW)
Throughout the Cold War, Soviet small arms have mostly been used by insurgents and guerrillas in wars of national liberation, employing asymmetrical tactics and strategies against much greater western powers. While the first world's tactics revolve around airstrikes, armour and artillery support, eastern-aligned irregular forces approach using stealth and deception, striking until they're close enough that enemy artillery becomes too dangerous to their own side.
EFFECT:
At Short Range or below, this weapon's damage rolls are maximised.
