Well, I picked up a few cans on Saturday from my SOT and we took out some of my toys that are waiting on paperwork as well as some of his stuff. We had my full-size UZI, his dealer sample MP5A3, and a real Colt 9mm AR that he just got done tuning for a local PD. I shot all three and I thought that the UZI was just as controlable in full-auto as the HK. The Colt was a little choppier than the other two but the bolt hadn't been ramped. Also, the Colt and the UZI ran without a hitch but I had a stovepipe on the HK. For a comparison on the cans I also brought out my M16. We had my Coastal 9mm UZI can, my AAC Phantom, my AAC M4-2000, and a Gemtech M4-2. I couldn't believe how quiet the M4-2000 was on the M16 in 223! It was much quieter than the Coastal on the UZI with supersonic. The AAC can was also much quieter than the Gemtech. The Phantom we tried out on the M16/9mm (what I will be using it on). It worked great! The only downside is that because it is so small it gets hot really fast. AAC only rates it for "light" full-auto use. It is an SMG can but they don't recoment back-to-back mag dumps. Anyway, sorry to ramble......
