Ammunition may also play a factor in the resurgence of SMGs. Pistol ammo requires much less gunpowder than a rifle round (frex, 9x19mm uses about 1/4 the powder of 5.56x45mm), which might be a factor in the T2K world (pistol bullets are heavier, but I would think lead is easier to acquire than smokeless powder).
