M3 smg

I propose the WWII M3 "Grease gun" be added to the game, taking the place of the M12s, and bumping the M12s up to a higher rank. This weapon will play similarly, but will fire .45 ACP instead of whatever ungodly round the M12s fire right now. This will result in lower damage, and more spread.

Stats:
Ammo: 30(35?) /120(140?)
(more ammo than standard assault rifles, but less than the Mp5.
Damage: around that of the USP, but at a higher firing rate.
Cost: 25k(30?)

The M3 was a proposed replacement for the Thomson, though not particularly widespread due to late introduction, and almost obsolete technology by the time of the next major conflict. As a disposable weapon, when it was used, logistics for replacement parts were always a problem.


I think this gun should cost about 30k GP, maybe 25k, but break rather fast, as a reflection upon the intended nature of the gun. However, I wish to also have repairs be relatively cheap, making sure that one has to watch its condition, more of a balancing issue.

It doesn't particularly enhance game play, per se but adds an interesting weapon that teaches what an SMG is supposed to be, fast firing, and good between melee range, and medium, but not much better.
