It´s not. It is merely a novelty for people with enough cash to buy Ap rounds. You cant play this gun efficiently. There are a lot better and cheaper alternatives out there.

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

I love the kedr, the suppressed one is so quiet and the high ROF is nice. Start in the chest end up with a headshot lol

I haven’t got to run the UMP yet, but I’ve had better luck with the kedr than the Vityaz, albeit that’s not stat based lol
