- ―Ammu-Nation description
The Mini SMG (referred to as "Scorpion" in the 3D Universe) is a submachine gun featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, and in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Bikers update. It is manufactured by Hawk & Little in the HD Universe.
Design
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
The weapon is modeled after the Škorpion Vz. 61 submachine gun, complete with a folding stock and uses 50-round magazines (an odd amount, considering the size of the magazine, which is more suitable to be a 10 or 20-round one).
Grand Theft Auto Online
| This article or section refers to "enhanced version" content in the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC renditions of Grand Theft Auto V and/or Grand Theft Auto Online, that is absent on the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 versions. For a complete list of the features of the "enhanced" version of Grand Theft Auto V, please see here. |  |
The weapon in Grand Theft Auto Online is based more on a Škorpion Vz. 82, as evidenced by the straight magazine and 9mm chambering. The magazine capacity, however, has been significantly reduced, with only 20 rounds per magazine (though it has access to a 30-round extended magazine).
Performance
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
The Scorpion replaces the Tec-9 from previous games, since it is also a small machine pistol with 50 rounds per magazine, making it a great choice of weapon for rampages or challenges within a time limit. The Scorpion has a lower fire rate compared to other similar weapons in the series.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Mini SMG has one of the fastest rates of fire (with the exception of the Minigun), at about 650 rounds per minute. However, its low damage per shot (barely above that of the SMG) means its damage per second are behind that of the AP Pistol (+5%), with a similar spread. The other SMGs usable in vehicles, while less powerful (-9% for the Machine Pistol, -28% for the SMG) retain a better accuracy when holding down the trigger.
It should not be considered while on foot, being outclassed by most assault rifles and machineguns.
