How AP Pistol and Assault SMG stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto V.

A select-fire armor-piercing machine pistol — full-auto in a sidearm slot, ideal for drive-bys when an SMG would block the camera. Unlocked at Ammu-Nation mid-story.

A bullpup-style 5.56mm SMG with rifle-caliber stopping power in an SMG frame — Trevor's signature mid-game weapon. Sold at Ammu-Nation from the mainland onward.
