The Vom Feuer AP Pistol (Armor-Piercing Pistol) is a weapon in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto V and Online[]
The AP Pistol appears to resemble the Colt SCAMP with elements from the OTs-33 Pernach. It also has a trigger and grips similar to those of modern M1911 pistols.
The AP Pistol is a striker-fired fully automatic machine pistol that acts much like the Automatic 9mm from The Lost and Damned. The gun is seen being used by Franklin Clinton in the official gameplay trailer.
According to the markings, the AP Pistol is chambered for 9x18 rounds, which would refer to the 9×18mm Makarov cartridge. Coincidentally, the OTs-33 Pernach also utilizes Makarov cartridges.
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto V and Online[]
Unlike the Auto 9mm, the AP Pistol is much more accurate, and has a lighter recoil, which can be lightened even more with a suppressor attachment. It has an 18-round magazine with the option to extend to 36 rounds. Due to its high accuracy, high rate of fire, common ammo, high power, and having a large magazine size (with extended clip), it is arguably the best drive-by weapon in the game. It is all-round superior to the Micro SMG due to the higher rate of fire, much better accuracy in sustained fire, and slightly higher magazine capacity. However, the Micro SMG is the weapon equipped by default during drive-by's, needing several weapon changes to equip the AP Pistol, although this can be fixed in Grand Theft Auto Online by simply tossing all other drive-by weapons or storing them in the gun locker of an office, warehouse, clubhouse, bunker, Mobile Operations Center, facility, Avenger, nightclub, Arena Workshop, penthouse, arcade, auto shop or agency.

Trivia[]
Grand Theft Auto V[]
- During the rappelling part of Three's Company, Michael actually fires his AP Pistol in three-round bursts instead of fully-automatic mode, as noticed by the slight delay between every three shots. This is probably made for the sake of the "Accuracy" gold objective, so the player would not waste bullets by mistake.
- The AP Pistol seems to be the weapon of choice for Steve Haines and Andreas Sanchez, as they both use it in the mission The Wrap Up.
