+1 sort of. IME, it is underpowered. Back in the day, Bass Pro Shops had it on sale for something like $5 for a box of 50 and I filled the car with as many cases I could fit in there....I knew it was underpowered but for that price I could use the brass and deal with it. I cut down a spare recoil spring just for this ammo to use in full size open bolt UZI and it worked fine. Was too weak for a standard spring.I have had ZERO luck with any REM UMC ammo in subguns. 9mm was spotty at best in my Uzis and wouldn't even cycle my MAC in .45 ACP. YMMV
I've been running IMI blue tip 158 gr for years through all my Uzis. Great stuff.That's a possible solution to the dilemma that nobody loads round nose 147s
You still have some???I've been running IMI blue tip 158 gr for years through all my Uzis. Great stuff.
Yes. I bought several cases and I still have some. I only shoot it through suppressed guns, and honestly I don't need it THAT quiet very often. And it is QUIET. I have both the UZI brand and the Sampson brand, but only the packaging is different. It cycles both my Mini and my Micro flawlessly. As far as UMC, I literally gave away the last several hundred rounds.You still have some???

It was more to show that if 158 will run so flawlessly, a lighter load like 147 should have no issues. It's too bad the Izzys don't export/manuf the 158. Or at least no to the US apparently. It was not only great stuff, but it wasn't all that pricey. I don't understand the target market for UMC, but the stuff I gave away was run in 1911s with no issues. I should have tried it in one of my Glocks to see how it ran.Are you suggesting the use of IMI 158 grain ammo as a solution to the flat point subsonic ammo dilemma?
