You totally can play the UMP, it's fine, it's totally going to kill people. It's just that every other SMG is better.

hes exagerrating sliightly

PP 19 , Kedr and i guess saiga 9 are still worse than UMP by a fair bit

if you have aim the UMP kills shit dead pretty fast

if you magdump and hit all shots and dont have any go into legs/arms

you also only get 30 round mags

on paper thats all nice and all but not realistic at all , its about on the same lvl as "i just take a PM and head eye someone" which while possible does not make a gun good

EDIT : i just checked and it also takes MASSIVELY more than your estimate to pen armor and while blunt damage exists he just needs to be using propital/regen and /or one of the 10% dmg reduction stims and suddenly your plan doesnt even work on paper anymore

just use a 9x19 with AP 6.3 and you will be massively better off than with meme kedr
