Schmeisser MK 36/III is pretty bad gold order SMG weapon even in the BR 1 SMG standards. A simple buff would make it somewhat viable, i suggest increase it’s hit power from 6.8 to 7.2 so that the relatively high damage could offset it’s downsides somewhat. The dowsides being quite slow rate of fire per minute being 480 with small 20 rnds magazine. Also the gun does have longer barrel than the most of other 9mm SMG so it would make sense as well.
With weapons like these I think trying to make them viable is kinda defeating any reason ppl would use it. It’s like trying to make the liberator or de leise meta.
Why not turn it into a trooper weapon? Its basically a M1 Carbine.
It used to have 7.2 damage originally (5.9 is a stock value in this screen w/o upgrades). But that was lost ages ago due to programming fail.
The difference between this one and the stuff like the liberator is that the liberator was clearly purposefully added for the fun play.
Also when did i ask this one to become the meta? Did i ask for the RPM buff as well? Let’s be honest here. The damage increase alone surely would make it less shite to use but would never make it the meta that’s about it. We have way way better BR 1 SMG already than this one on BR 1.
So it used to have 7.2 damage but got nerfed without any noticing? Even more reason to make it back to 7.2 damage then 
There’s a difference between underpowered weapons and meme weapons.
I did think about this but it’s still automatic weapon despite it being kinda shite.
The game really doesn’t want to put any fully automatic weapons for Trooper/AT gunner/Engineer etc classes below BR 4 so yea.
Makes sense I guess
This seems like a fun meme gun to me. Tho I’ll admit I don’t have it
What? I wonder why when making my BR1 lineup i was trying to make use of these weapons (including the mors) only to find out they were utter crap.
This weapon is nothing like the de lisle or liberator… those are actual meme guns.
Cuz………
It uses 9x19 it should have 9x19 damage and that is 6.8 fully upgraded.
Unfortunately, that’s not how it works in the game. We have different damages between guns despite many of them shares the same calibre of bullets for very obvious balance reasons. Or are you one of those absolute purists who thinks that Fedorov Avtomat and Arisaka Type 38 bolt-action rifle should share the same hitpower damage just because they are using the same 6.5x50mm bullet? 
I disagree. Guns like the De Lisle Carbine, Berdan, and Liberator are guns so bad that they could never realistically be broken or meta, that’s what makes them meme weapons.
Most bad weapons are just bad, but they could be reasonably buffed into viability. This is a good example of that.
I just don’t want to jump the gun like the devs did with the de lisle when they “buffed” it this update.
Yes and it should’ve been a SF rifle. It’s the same exact cartridge so the stats dependant on cartridge, like damage and recoil, should be the same.
Okay well great idea have a nice day 
I have the MK 36/III, and it’s relatively weak with it’s slow rate of fire and average damage number of 6.8 (6.8 would be fine if it’s ROF was 520 or higher). Same could be said about the FNAB 43, although it’s max ROF is even worse then the MK 36 at only 460, but still has the same average damage rating of 6.8. They both have subpar BR1 shooting stats, and IMOP both should get a ROF increase instead of damage increase. Let’s face it, when an SMG only shoots in the 400’s, an increase of 6.8 to 7.0 is not going to significantly improve it 
. The M3 Field Mod Grease gun shoots I believe at 470, which is in the same ROF vicinity as the MK 36 and the FNAB, but at least it has an 8.2 damage rating which makes it somewhat salvageable, where the other two are not, especially with the FNAB being at BR2.
It’s just as useless as it was before tbh
