Replace SMG skin with LMG?

[Articsledder]

At this point the SMG is no longer an SMG, but is instead more of a light machine gun because of its range. So, why not just replace its skin with something like, say, a US M60. There doesn't have to be any game mechanic changes for now, just a default skin change, with possibly modifying the ammo later on.

Yes I am aware you can change the skins by yourself, but there just isnt something right about it when it isnt vanilla.

Back in the old days the semi was a shotgun.
Even to this day it's still not very realistic how far and accurate this thing can shoot without a scope.

What?The shotgun?
IRL,certain shotguns can hit targets up to 50m,and more.Some with Frag ammo can even hit and kill targets at 115m

Should stay a SMG cause of the damage 8 bullets cant kill (HS not included)

Damage: it got a poor damage +1SMG
Rate of fire: it fires fast as a +1 SMG
Accuracy:Its inaccurate like it is using a 7.62 Ak47-bullet +1 LMG
Range: it got ok +1 SMG
So... 4 SMG - 1 LMG

And i think we need HMG to defend some trenches and bunkers maybe even bridges if they wouldn't be griefed all the time

Damage: it got a poor damage +1SMG What exactly are we comparing it too? I would assume SMG's and LMG's both hurt alot
Rate of fire: it fires fast as a +1 SMG As fast as a what? RoF isnt exactly a concern.
Accuracy:Its inaccurate like it is using a 7.62 Ak47-bullet +1 LMG Shouldn't this be a +1 for SMG? Either way LMG's are more accurate
Range: it got ok +1 SMG Real SMG's are practically useless outside of urban areas
So... 4 SMG - 1 LMG

I think you misread the OP
