In this video a montage of some actions with the vanu smg Eridani sx5, the third weapon I've chosen for the smg directive (In the previous video: Ns pdw and Sirius).
The Eridani is a really good smg in my opinion: very strong in close combat but also pretty decent in medium range.
It's very similar to the Sirius but with some differences:
1. Smaller magazine size, the eridani has only 25 munitions (Only half than the Sirius). This mean that you can't archive more than two kills with a magazine.
2. Faster reload spead (This is to compensate for the small magazine)
3. Lower rate of fire and one tier higher damage model. This mean Eridani is a little less effective then sirius in the closest combat but it gives more versatility in medium range.
To summarize, based on my experience, the Eridani is a well balanced smg with the only downside related to the small magazine. This isn't a big problem itself since it has a fast reload but sometime in zergs you feel the need of some extra bullets. For this reason I would raccomend the Sirius.
