    What is the worst thing you have done to your Uzi

    had a double-charge 45ACP blow off the top cover, almost permanently install the barrel in the restrictor ring. Human was fine, can was fine and eventually pounded the barrel out into the trash can. Receiver was ok.

    Did anyone other than IMI make a Model A Style Semi Auto bolt?

    (not a FS listing) - I have a parts gun I'm trying to find a home for which has a Model A style bolt without the mechanism that prevents the striker from trying to reach the primer if it's not in battery. I want to say this is an original Model A bolt, but I forget whether anyone else knocked...

    Light primer strike issue

    It would be worthwhile to run a set of rounds with a sharpie marking 12 o'clock on the rounds as mentioned above to get a feel for the consistency of where the strikes are. Whereas I have seen McKay firing pins a couple of years back that were a hair short, most of the light hits were too much...

    First Uzi need help!

    What Ammo? Make sure you are not using weak stuff. I've never seen an issue with the IMI/OEM Style chamber faces. The super tapered barrels are made to work with less than perfect spec stuff.

    Deep firing pin strikes

    curious - other than the hits being deep, are they causing an actual problem? I.E. - are you getting cracked primers or failure to eject?

    Built an Uzi, possible sear trouble

    I presume that is your problem. Looks like this can be a tough part to get these days, but I presume there will be a run soon.

    WTK: CCI Blazer Brass 147 grain?

    I don't have a SMG, but Nodak and McKay setups with BWE IMI Spec SBR Barrel - this ammo performs the best of all flat point ammo. Not 100.00% reliable, but the fewest jams of all flat points I have tried. It does stay subsonic out of 8.5-10.25 inch barrels.

    What is a McKay Uzi worth?

    $800-$1000 depending on how finished. I'm not talking about just the actual gun finish... e.g. - does it have a nice set of plastic furniture, is the metal from the parts kit beat to sh*t, etc...

    U.S. manufacture of striker/firing pin assemblies?

    Maybe get a hold of the folks at McKay and get details from them. I have a few of their receivers/parts and any time I had problems they were good people to call up and discuss the issue with. Can't hurt to ask when the next batch will be run...

    Barrel That Will Feed FN Rounds?

    US Barrel Shrouds has sold barrels with a little bit of taper to the chamber. Not too extreme, but not IMI spec either. Might want to get a hold of them to see what their actual barrels have for that: https://shop.usbarrelshrouds.com/UZI-9MM-SEMI-AUTO-1025-THREADED-BARREL-NEW-_p_69.html In...

    9 mm loads for Semi Auto

    Rem UMC is known weak. WWB used to be the go-to, but they are over-crimping the shit out of their rounds. The 9mm Q4318 NATO ammo has been good - Fed 115 and 124 has been fine as well.

    UZI Quick Detach Stock Question

    I think the short-answer is 'no'. What you are experiencing is 'by design' for the Semi's with the QD stock. Just be careful to disassemble in the right order to remove the bolt before you pull the QD stock.

    Top cover play

    Had a welder run a bead of weld on a top cover to reduce some of the very bad play on my vector/group 45.

    Uzi magazine question from a noob

    The 32's do accept a slightly longer cartridge. The 25's are good up to about 1.160, the 32's will go to SAAMI max spec for 9mm 1.169 plus a few thousandths. Useful when loading the xtreme 165gr 9mm.

    Do you prefer 25 or 32 round Uzi magazines?

    Both. I keep 20x 25 rounders in my range bag so I can empty a full 500 round case of Q4318 into them. I use the 32 rounders for my subsonic load and keep one of the 7 mag italian mag pouches in same range bag loaded with my subsonic load. FWIW - there is a difference in the C.O.L. these...
