The '''MAC-10''' (''Military Armament Corporation Model 10'') is a recoil operated sub-machine gun (technically, a "machine pistol") developed in the United States from the 1960s to 1980s. The gun was originally designed for use by police forces, and even saw limited service in the Vietnam War, however it was soon proven that such a small gun cannot accurately fire beyond 20 meters at such a high rate of fire. Its manufacture continued until 1986 when post-dated fully automatic firearms were banned for civilian ownership, and no government agencies showed interest. The MAC-10 achieved success through Hollywood rather then real life, because few of the guns ever made it into the hands of criminals, and even then were marginally effective. The MAC-10 is obtainable on [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories|Liberty City Stories]], and a silenced version is available on [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories|Vice City Stories]].
