Match Your Ammo Before You Pick an Active Matter SMG or Pistol
Caliber splits this group more than class does. The SMGs fire 9x19, 9x18, .45 ACP and 7.62x25, so a 9x19 gun and a 9x18 gun won't share rounds. Shotguns use 12x70 except the KS-23, which fires the bigger 23x75 shell. Most pistols match the SMG calibers, and the RSh-12 sits on its own 12.7x55 round.
If you already carry a 9x19 pistol, a 9x19 SMG keeps your ammo simple. Build around one caliber before you chase the gun you like best.
Fast SMGs Need a Steady Hand
Some SMGs fire fast enough that the gun sets the pace, not your trigger finger. A quick gun that climbs off target wastes the rounds you fire, so compare recoil control and spread alongside fire rate, not fire rate alone.
The PM-63 and PP-91 Kedr use 9x18 ammo. Both hit softer and have a shorter effective range than the 9x19 SMGs, so they suit close rooms better than long sightlines.
Shotgun Choice Comes Down to Handling
The 12x70 shotguns share one shell, so pellet damage won't tell them apart. Handling will: fire rate, recoil, spread, weight and mounts. Check each one's recoil control and spread before you settle on a gun.
The KS-23 is the odd one out. Its bigger shell hits harder, but it fires fewer pellets and kicks more. Take it when you want the heavy hit and can live with a slow gun.
Every shotgun here reaches less far than the SMGs and pistols, so save them for corners and doorways.
Pick a Pistol That Shares Your Main Gun's Ammo
Match your pistol's caliber to your primary if you want both guns to use the same type of rounds. Check the caliber on each gun before you pack your ammo.
Then weigh handling against punch. Light pistols are easier to carry, and the heavy ones are a commitment you should make on purpose. Rusty versions are their own guns with their own numbers, so compare each one with its clean version instead of assuming it matches.
What Attachment Slots Tell You and What They Don't
Attachment slots list the mount points each gun has, such as Muzzle, Sight, Magazine, Grip, Underbarrel, Stock and the left and right tactical rails. A slot tells you the gun has that mount. It doesn't prove a specific muzzle device, sight or magazine fits, so check the exact part before you plan a build around it. Some guns have no slots at all, and there's nothing to fit on them.
FAQ
Which pistol weighs the least?
The P17-V. It's the lightest pistol here, and it uses the same 9x19 rounds as the 9x19 SMGs.
Which close-range weapons have no attachment slots?
The M12, MB590, SPAS-12, M12 Trench, MTs 21-12 and TOZ-B have no attachment slots. The Makarov Honorary Pistol has none either.
How does the Rusty M1911A1 compare with the regular M1911A1?
It uses the same .45 ACP rounds but hits a bit softer, fires a bit slower and spreads much wider. It also loses the regular M1911A1's muzzle and sight mounts, leaving only the magazine slot.
Which pistol hits hardest?
The RSh-12. It fires 12.7x55 rounds, has the most armor penetration here, and it's the heaviest pistol here. Its slow fire is the trade-off.
