Fortnite Drum Gun : IS IT OP?!

The new Drum gun has been added into Fortnite through the 4.5 Content Update. There was no down time for servers and was just added into the gun.

The Gun itself is very similar to the Tommy gun or Thompson WWII gun but with a large drum magazine. Fortnite describe it as a hybrid with the stopping power of an assault rifle but with the fire rate and suppressive ability of an SMG. However it is placed into the SMG category appropriately. 

The weapon itself is in the rarity of Uncommon and Rare. Does that mean there is a legendary SMG still coming?!

The weapon has a base damage of 26/27 (Uncommon / Rare) which is a lot for an SMG and a fire rate of 9. It compensates the high fire rate with a monstrous magazine capacity of 50 rounds. It takes Medium Bullets so keep an eye on the assault rifles as you don't want to be left with no bullets for your rifles. However, it has a long reload time of 3 seconds which could be the difference between dieing and winning a gun fight.

It can be found virtually everywhere from floor loot and chests. The retro gun has a Godly sound effect when shot , take a listen!





So what do you think of the new gun : Is it Overpowered or just right enough! Leave a comment !
