The Gold SMG is a submachine gun in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Design[]

The Ballad of Gay Tony[]

The Gold SMG appears as a gold-plated, standard length IMI Uzi submachine gun with the folding stock removed. Its design is similar to the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City rendition of the Micro SMG.

Yusuf Amir is often seen with this weapon and also claims that the gun is solid gold, though this would make the weapon too heavy and gold would be too soft for the internal workings of the gun. It is possibly gold-plated, or covered in gold leaf. When used, the character wields it from the hip/chest area, similar to the Advanced MG.

Performance[]

The Ballad of Gay Tony[]

The Gold SMG has the same stopping power, accuracy and quite similar firing sound as the Micro SMG, and is, basically, a full-length replacement. However, the rate of fire is different, as it fires much faster than the Micro SMG (though in reality the full sized Uzi has a slower rate of fire). It has a 30-round magazine, as opposed to the Micro SMG's 50-round magazine. Also, the reload is somewhat longer.

This gun, while being similar to the Micro SMG from Grand Theft Auto IV and The Lost and Damned, has such an astounding rate of fire that it is one of the best guns for ground warfare, and it is not bad for drive-by. The only flaw of the gun is its poor accuracy, although as a drive-by weapon it is quite effective to puncture tires.

A major advantage to this compared to other SMGs is that the light recoil can allow one to shoot accurately for an extended period of time, somewhat bypassing its main weakness.
