Greetings, I was considering buying a Mini-Uzi from Vector Arms but was curious if one can buy a fake suppressor to cover up the barrel? I know you can get one for their 16" barrel full-size Uzi but the Mini has a 19" barrel so obviously one of these won't fit. Does anyone know? I'd love to get one but the look of the extremely long barrel is a bit of a turn off.

if you are in state that allow's SBR. by all mean's do it......heck you can play stick{pool} with that thang!! wink!!

and it look's much better short anyhow..isn't it funny some gun's go long other's short??

take care,ron

p.s they sell the mini i am sure in SBR. i just ordered a standard model that way...FROM vector

I would go the SBR route but I'm only 20 and have another year until that's a possibility. I'm a newbie to the Uzi world but hope to get into it ASAP. If there ends up not being a barrel shroud \ fake can for a mini-uzi I'll end up just going for the full-size Uzi with barrel shroud :cool

Dig around... There are several on the board that can make you something that will look nice....

Maybe a cue case!!!! Sorry had to say it!!!!:D

It may be worth looking into but I don't know if even a fake can could make the barrel look any better.....:(

That actually doesn't look half bad. With a thick enough fake can it could be workable.

Now it's just a matter of seeing if anyone makes or would make one....:(

I figured as much. Does anyone on the forum do their own barrel shrouds?

Now that vector is offering Mini-Uzi Carbines, I would think there would be a market for fake cans or barrel shrouds for them.

I make nylon ones for standard Uzi carbines. If I could get some measurements from you...I MAY be able to make one long enough for your mini.

e-mail me if interested.

Actually, unless you are in I think California, you CAN legally cut the barrel down to 16" so the Carbine fake suppressor would work.

See the link below for the ATF letter I posted that says its ok:

I don't think a standard Full size shroud would work even if you cut the barrel to 16", because more of the full size barrel is inside the receiver than on a mini.
