The '''SMG''' is a [[Submachine Guns|submachine gun]] featured in almost all the games in the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' series since ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]'', with the exception of ''[[Grand Theft Auto Advance]]''. It is referred to as '''MP''' in ''GTA Vice City'' (or as '''MP5''' in the [[PlayStation 2]] version), while in all other ''Grand Theft Auto'' games it is called '''SMG'''. In ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]'', it is manufactured by [[Hawk & Little]].

True to its name, the MP5 is based on the {{WP|Heckler & Koch MP5|weapon of the same name}}, with each game having a variant of said weapon:
+
*In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'', the weapon is modeled after an MP5A3, painted grey.

The '''MP5''' is a [[Sub Machine Gun|submachine gun]] featured in all the games in the GTA series since GTA Vice City. In GTA Vice City, it is referred to as '''MP''', while in all other GTA games it is called '''SMG'''. In [[GTA V]] it is manufactured by [[Hawk and Little]].
+
*In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]'', it is modeled after the compact MP5K, which has no stock. It is fitted with what appears to be an unusable flashlight.
+
*In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]'', it is based on the Reverse Stretch (a civilian version of the MP5K with a collapsible stock); the model also contains elements from the MP5SD.
+
The prominent characteristic of the MP5 is that it is practically larger than the [[Micro SMG]] and often symbolizes a better arsenal. Since its inception in ''GTA Vice City'', the weapon is favored by the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]]. All renditions of the MP5 hold 30 rounds per magazine.
−
== Description ==
−
The SMG is one of the most powerful submachine guns in the GTA series, with devastating effects to both the player and non-player targets alike. It is arguably a better substitute for the [[Micro Uzi]] and [[Micro-SMG]], holding more damage per round. However, like the [[Micro-SMG]], the MP5 has the disadvantage of disallowing the player from discharging the weapon while running, allowing the player to only stand or stride while taking aim or shooting. Since its inception in GTA Vice City, the weapon is favored by both the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] (and GTA IV's [[FIB#GTA IV and EFLC|FIB]]) and GTA IV's [[NOOSE]] tactical units as a weapon of choice. All renditions of the MP5 hold 30 rounds per magazine.
+
===''Grand Theft Auto IV''===
−
Each MP5 rendition has a variant in the GTA games. GTA Vice City and San Andreas feature an MP5A3, and GTA Liberty City Stories features the MP5K which looks a little lengthier than the other renditions. In Vice City Stories, the SP89 (a civilian version of the MP5K) makes an appearance, but the model also contains parts of the MP5A3, MP5K and MP5SD. In GTA IV, the MP5 is heavily modified and resembles the look of an MP10. In GTA Chinatown Wars the MP5 is called the SMG, just like any other rendition. In GTA V, the model that appears is the MP5A5 variant (signified by the straight pistol grip and retractable stock). The MP5 is however fitted with a rectangular handguard and appears to have much shorter magazines in comparison with the real-life MP5A5.
+
In ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'', the SMG is modeled after the MP10, an American copy of the MP5 made by Special Weapons Inc. It lacks a stock on the rear and appears to have a flashlight attachment on the front, though it is unusable.
+
Again, the weapon is adopted by law enforcement, most notably [[National Office of Security Enforcement|NOOSE]] and the [[Federal Investigation Bureau|FIB]].

In ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]'', the weapon is based on the MP5A3, signified by the three-position trigger group and retractable stock. It is, however, fitted with a rectangular handguard supposedly from a Taurus MT-40, has angular iron sights similar to those from a CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1, and appears to have much shorter magazines and a deeper magazine well in comparison with the real-life MP5.

The SMG is one of the most powerful submachine guns in the games it appeared in, with devastating effects to both the player and non-player targets alike. It is arguably a better substitute for the [[Micro SMG]], holding more damage per round. However, like the Micro SMG (namely the full-sized version in ''GTA VC''/''LCS''/''VCS''), the MP5 has the disadvantage of disallowing the player from discharging the weapon while running, allowing the player to only stand or stride while taking aim or shooting.

The SMG is basically one of the best weapons available in the game. It is a 2 hit kill with head-shots on single player and multiplayer. It has about double the range of a [[Micro SMG]] and almost the range of an [[AK-47|Assault Rifle]], but not as much range as a [[Carbine Rifle]].
+
+
This weapon is good for [[Drive-By Shooting|drive-bys]] and car chases. While having lesser capacity compared to the Micro SMG, its fire rate and damage is generally devastating against standard vehicles, with 2-3 magazines enough to set a vehicle on fire.
The SMG has average performance. The damage per shot is a small 22, although its fire rate is a good 510 shots per minute, which is high for an automatic weapon in-game. The SMG has some usefulness at close range, although the low damage per shot makes it easily outclassed by fast-firing assault rifles.
+
+
As expected from a submachine gun, the accuracy is poor. In third-person view, the accuracy at medium and long ranges is close to mediocre, and in first-person view, the SMG has noticeable viewkick and obstructive iron sights, making the weapon ineffective at longer ranges.
+
+
An advantage compared to the Micro-SMG is the magazine capacity. Stock magazines hold 30 rounds, whereas that of the Micro-SMG hold only 16 rounds each. The SMG's mag capacity is closer to that of an assault rifle, thus reloads are semi-frequent.
+
+
The SMG has the same attachments selections as other weapons of its class. The Scope is an effective attachment if the player plans to extends the weapon's effective range, as it increases accuracy, and allows the player to benefit from a clear optic sight in first-person view. The Suppressor impacts the weapon's damage per shot and range in exchange of allowing the player to fire suppressed shots, and unless the player uses the weapon only at close range, it is best avoided as it further reduces the already low damage profile. Extended Clip increases the magazine capacity to 60 rounds, making reloads much less problematic (Which in ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]'', as of the [[GTA Online: Further Adventures in Finance and Felony|Further Adventures in Finance and Felony]] update, it can be further upgraded with a 100-round drum magazine). Finally, the Flashlight gives the player an extra light source, helpful if the player is in a dark area.
+
+
In conclusion, the SMG is an average weapon. It can often prove to down enemies quicker than assault rifles are capable of at close range. However, the similar Micro-SMG features a higher fire rate and the ability to be used for drive-by shootings in exchange of slightly less damage, while still retaining the mediocre long-range performance. One cannot use the SMG in a [[Drive-By Shooting|drive-by shooting]], as the gun is too large to be used as a drive-by weapon.
MP5-GTAVC-PS2.png|Original PS2 version of ''Grand Theft Auto: Vice City''. It is more correctly modeled due the position of the rear sight, as well as the visibility of the charging handle and the locking lever for the stock. The muzzle brake is also shorter.

The SMG can be purchased at the back-alley gun shops for $2500 and each additional magazine costs $150. It can be purchased from [[Little Jacob]] for $1750 and each additional magazine will cost $20. It is basically the most used weapon on multiplayer and a good weapon for single player also. It is a 2 hit kill with head-shots on single player and multiplayer. It has about double the range of an Uzi and almost the range of an AK, but not as much range as an M4. This weapon is good for drive-bys and car chases as it has an high rate of fire and a 30 round magazine, but the Uzi is more suited for that purpose and this gun is more suited for attacking on the ground.

In Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, it is modeled after the compact MP5K, which has no stock. It is fitted with what appears to be an unusable flashlight.
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, it is based on the Reverse Stretch (a civilian version of the MP5K with a collapsible stock); the model also contains elements from the MP5SD.
The prominent characteristic of the MP5 is that it is practically larger than the Micro SMG and often symbolizes a better arsenal. Since its inception in GTA Vice City, the weapon is favored by the FBI. All renditions of the MP5 hold 30 rounds per magazine.
Grand Theft Auto IV
In Grand Theft Auto IV, the SMG is modeled after the MP10, an American copy of the MP5 made by Special Weapons Inc. It lacks a stock on the rear and appears to have a flashlight attachment on the front, though it is unusable.
Again, the weapon is adopted by law enforcement, most notably NOOSE and the FIB.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
“
Hits harder and is more controllable than a Micro SMG, but has fewer rounds in the magazine. ...The professional's choice.
In Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, the weapon is based on the MP5A3, signified by the three-position trigger group and retractable stock. It is, however, fitted with a rectangular handguard supposedly from a Taurus MT-40, has angular iron sights similar to those from a CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1, and appears to have much shorter magazines and a deeper magazine well in comparison with the real-life MP5.
The weapon is again favored by many law enforcement agencies, NOOSE being one of its most prominent users.
Performance
3D Universe
The SMG is one of the most powerful submachine guns in the games it appeared in, with devastating effects to both the player and non-player targets alike. It is arguably a better substitute for the Micro SMG, holding more damage per round. However, like the Micro SMG (namely the full-sized version in GTA VC/LCS/VCS), the MP5 has the disadvantage of disallowing the player from discharging the weapon while running, allowing the player to only stand or stride while taking aim or shooting.

Grand Theft Auto IV
The SMG is basically one of the best weapons available in the game. It is a 2 hit kill with head-shots on single player and multiplayer. It has about double the range of a Micro SMG and almost the range of an Assault Rifle, but not as much range as a Carbine Rifle.
This weapon is good for drive-bys and car chases. While having lesser capacity compared to the Micro SMG, its fire rate and damage is generally devastating against standard vehicles, with 2-3 magazines enough to set a vehicle on fire.
The SMG has average performance. The damage per shot is a small 22, although its fire rate is a good 510 shots per minute, which is high for an automatic weapon in-game. The SMG has some usefulness at close range, although the low damage per shot makes it easily outclassed by fast-firing assault rifles.
As expected from a submachine gun, the accuracy is poor. In third-person view, the accuracy at medium and long ranges is close to mediocre, and in first-person view, the SMG has noticeable viewkick and obstructive iron sights, making the weapon ineffective at longer ranges.
An advantage compared to the Micro-SMG is the magazine capacity. Stock magazines hold 30 rounds, whereas that of the Micro-SMG hold only 16 rounds each. The SMG's mag capacity is closer to that of an assault rifle, thus reloads are semi-frequent.
The SMG has the same attachments selections as other weapons of its class. The Scope is an effective attachment if the player plans to extends the weapon's effective range, as it increases accuracy, and allows the player to benefit from a clear optic sight in first-person view. The Suppressor impacts the weapon's damage per shot and range in exchange of allowing the player to fire suppressed shots, and unless the player uses the weapon only at close range, it is best avoided as it further reduces the already low damage profile. Extended Clip increases the magazine capacity to 60 rounds, making reloads much less problematic (Which in Grand Theft Auto Online, as of the Further Adventures in Finance and Felony update, it can be further upgraded with a 100-round drum magazine). Finally, the Flashlight gives the player an extra light source, helpful if the player is in a dark area.
In conclusion, the SMG is an average weapon. It can often prove to down enemies quicker than assault rifles are capable of at close range. However, the similar Micro-SMG features a higher fire rate and the ability to be used for drive-by shootings in exchange of slightly less damage, while still retaining the mediocre long-range performance. One cannot use the SMG in a drive-by shooting, as the gun is too large to be used as a drive-by weapon.

In-game model
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City & Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Original PS2 version of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It is more correctly modeled due the position of the rear sight, as well as the visibility of the charging handle and the locking lever for the stock. The muzzle brake is also shorter.
Ocean Flats, San Fierro - At the back garden of a green house, in the south-east of the district. Its just barely north of the police bribe in the alley way.
One can get this weapon in the beginning of the game after unlocking the gun shops. Attack the manager and he will call out his friends to help. Two of them will be holding the MP5, and one will hold the Combat Shotgun, so be careful. After killing them all, one can take the MP5 from them.
Acter Industrial Park - Can be found on the seventh floor of an observation platform of a RON Oil refinery on the southern side of the island. This is a particularly long way to go to get this weapon, however, and is not recommended.
This weapon can only be obtained for free through enemies in missions. Other than that, the only other two ways are either buy it from downtown Ammu-Nation or try to steal one off of the FBI during a five-star wanted rating, or the military during a six-star wanted rating.
A shorter version of the weapon, the MP5K, was cut from GTA Vice City. Model and textures for the weapon still remain in the game files (mpfshrt.dff and mpfshrt.txd). The weapon can also be seen in the intro of the game, being used by one of the men who ambush the drug deal.
The initial release of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the submachine gun was called MP5, but due to a licensing flap, later version (Double Pack) was named to just MP.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
A glitch can occur with the SMG's sound. If the player has the radio on and does drive-bys, the pitch of the gunfire will be slightly higher when shooting to the right during some songs.
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
The GTA Vice City and San Andreas version of the MP5 was meant to return to Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories. Leftover textures exist in the files.
Grand Theft Auto IV
The cocking animation after reloading differs in the PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV, where the charging handle is pulled, while in the console versions an HK slap is performed instead. In The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, an HK slap is done in all versions.
Both sides of GTA IV's SMG feature "MADE IN SCOTLAND" markings (mirrored on the left side), alluding to GTA IV's Scottish developer Rockstar North.
The reload animation is one second longer when the player is crouched. When the player is reloading in the position, they will pull a "lever" on top. This is inaccurate because nothing is pulled on top of the gun in real life; even this "lever" is not visible. This is most likely a glitch.
Niko holding a beta MP5
In the beta version of GTA IV, there was a different looking SMG as seen in the picture of the right. It had a stock attached to it, and was modeled after an MP5-N as opposed to an MP10.
Oddly, the SMG is modeled with the firing mode selector set to "Safe" position (white icon). This would render the weapon unable to fire (unlike other weapons, where these selectors are set to "Fire" position).
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
A rendering of the papercraft SMG from the GTA Chinatown Wars section of the Rockstar Games Social Club.
Under the GTA Chinatown Wars section of the Rockstar Games Social Club website, members may download a printable papercraft model of the game's SMG. The weapon's design differs in terms of detailing.
Grand Theft Auto V and Online
The standard magazine for the SMG is modeled after a 15-round magazine (even though it holds 30 rounds in-game), and the extended magazine is modeled after a 30-round magazine (holding 60 rounds in-game).
Like the MG, it has ample space on its railed fore-end to mount a Grip, but is unable to do so.
The reload animation is similar to the HK Slap, a somewhat common and popular way to empty reload the MP5 by 'slapping' the charging handle of the weapon to lock it back into place.
