Submachine Gun

Uzis are small sub-machine guns, which fire at incredible speeds. They fire the same 9-mm ammunition and therefore have similar shot power to the Pistols, but their higher rate of fire ensure that damage is dealt more quickly. The uzis can quickly kill endgame enemies such as the Atlantean mutants and Xian guardians. Ammo is very plentiful in Tomb Raider and Tomb Raider 2, but become much rarer in further installments. These gun appears in various games of the series and have the same characteristics, with the exception of the Silver Sub-Machine guns in Tomb Raider: Anniversary, which have double the firepower of regular Uzis and are only accessible by cheats.

The name "Uzi" on the first 3 games are a misnomer, since they are actually based on the Ingram MAC-10 This model also appears on Anniversary as the "Mini SMG". On TR4 and Chronicles, they are based on the IMI Micro-Uzi and based on the full-size Uzi on Underworld, albeit with a different stock. The "Mini SMGs" on Anniversary have a 25-round capacity (compared to the real MAC-10's 32 rounds) and 30 rounds on Underworld.

Deals 1 damage per bullet, dealing 2 damage if both are fired and has a firing rate 3 times faster than the default pistols.
