Most modern, or well made, SMGs seem to basically be slightly smaller, pistol-caliber firing rifles these days. The MP5 is an excellent weapon, but why have something that fires 9mm when you can get an HK53 that's just as small and fires .223? IMHO, the best design for an SMG is as follows:
Magazine well in the pistol grip, for balance of weight.
Optional foregrip.
Retracting stock.
High cyclic rate, with option for burst fire mode.
Optics rails, and mounting for laser sights.
Mounting for silencers.
They don't make an SMG like this today, I don't think. The Steyr TMP is close, but the optional folding stock is too big.
