Ronson 55

The Ronson 55 is an SMG made by Ronson. Unlike most other SMGs, the Ronson 55 has some late-game potential due to the high damage output for a SMG and the two pierce.

In comparison to other SMGs, the Ronson 55 is a direct upgrade from the CM 307, having higher clip size, damage, rate of fire and pierce for the same SMG ammo. Its movement modifier is extremely similar to that of the Ronson 65-a, with a difference of one percent. The Ronson 55 outclasses both the 65-a and the Ronson LBM in damage per second, falling behind only on pierce and continuous fire.

The Ronson 55, in its non- version, gets the benefit of super cheap ammo, $40 for 200. In addition, the rounds per second of the 55 is quite high, twenty, meaning that users of the Heavy Class can combine this gun with the Concussion skill for some decent stun-locking power, along with exclusive 2 pierce. Its firepower in damage makes this gun good at taking out a decent-sized horde of zombies. The Ronson 55 is as powerful as physical damage SMGs can get, having the highest DPS out of all the  SMG's. This makes the  Ronson 55 one of the best candidates for using the more expensive  SMG ammo, $400 for 200.

The 55 is a surprisingly good boss killer, being an SMG it has decent mobility, high damage, and high rate of fire, making this weapon ideal for all bosses, excluding most fast-moving aggressive bosses.
