Accuracy is typical for an SMG, with good hipfire.

The only other attachment available for the M1A1 is a stubby grip.

Tips

Consider using the M1A1 or M1 only if you enjoy a challenge, are interested in historical military arms, or are trying to earn their trophies/achievements.
The M1A1's drum magazine is one of its main strengths, but it won't help in close quarters against modern weapons with high DPS.
You can recreate the look of gangsters' weapons by adding the wooden foregrip and drum magazine to the M1A1, though in reality, M1 and M1A1 models couldn't accept drum magazines.
