The KF5 is good, don't get me wrong. Its damage output is pretty good, magazines are large, it has some really good variants, and it shoots pretty fast. The problem is that the ASM1 is flat out amazing and can beat the KF5 at everything besides long range damage, which isn't important for SMG's. It has a larger magazine size, fires significantly faster for the first 8 rounds (and the Speakeasy variant alleviates the 759 RPM and replaces it with an OP 1016 RPM), and has high damage by DEFAULT, The ASM1 is just an amazing weapon compared to everything else, and gives the BAL and HBRa a run for their money.
