Rapid-Fire SMG is a weapon in Saints Row IV[2] and Saints Row: Gat out of Hell.

Compact SMG that fires bullets in extremely rapid succession.
— Weapon Description[3]

Overview[]

The Rapid-Fire SMG is designed as suggested by its name, for laying down high rate of fire. This gives the Rapid-Fire SMG the advantage of quickly eliminating targets at close range, but as a result of the high fire rate, makes engaging targets more difficult at range than the Heavy SMG in comparison, and the high fire rate makes ammo a consumption a concern if using the Rapid-Fire SMG, especially if dual wielded. The Rapid-Fire SMG does boast the highest magazine capacity when compared to the Heavy SMG, but the magazine is still quickly depleted. The Lightning Shots upgrade knocks down enemies and makes them easier to finish them off as the fast rate of fire keeps the enemy knocked down.

The Rapid-Fire SMG descends from the D4TH Blossom from Saints Row: The Third. Both SMGs have high rates of fire and both can inflict high DPS, especially when upgraded and dual wielded.

Upgrades[]

There are 5 upgrades for the Accuracy, Clip Size, Damage and Reload Speed, with a separate Lightning Shots "ultimate upgrade".[4]
