I have a Bowers CAC9 with the barrel nut mount, and I know a guy who has a can from a different manufacturer with a similar mount. I get mixed results with mine, the accuracy varies a lot from OK to horrible. The other guy just gets horrible accuracy. I kind of suspect that the alignment of...

The thread title sort of covers things. I want to make a fake UZI to hang on the wall of my office. Like get a skanky old parts kit somewhere and a dummy receiver. Or get the dummy receiver and whatever smattering of parts it needs separately.

So you got 4 chunks of receiver. Now what? https://www.robertrtg.com/store/pc/DEMILLED-RECEIVER-SET-4-PIECES-IMI-UZI-161p174.htm

I found published load data for 9mm luger 158 lead RN in the Lyman 44th edition (1967) loading manual. So I loaded up some 158 gr LSWC. I used Unique powder. I tried to get them to be just shy of subsonic, but I distinctly heard a supersonic crackle, and they chronographed out to 1116 fps...

It occurred to me that the chamber end of a mil-spec UZI SMG barrel is kind of crummy for feeding FP rounds. The "funnel" part is too small. I made some very careful measurements and it turns out that you can open the "funnel" at the breech end of the barrel quite a bit without cutting into...

I bought a NIB full auto Vector and had the welds pop and fixed. I sold off the south african bolt and barrel to a collector who wanted them. So now I have a BWE barrel made by ???? who knows, a US Barrel Shrouds "gigantic chamber funnel" barrel made by ???? who knows, and I recently...

There is some slight wear in my vector from the bolt running across the bottom of the receiver. Mostly up front near the trunnion. See photos. I would say the gun has had about 20,000 rounds through it since it was new. What say ye?

If you can find one, what would you expect to pay? say a barrel from a parts kit in "excellent but used" condition

Sometimes my Vector will eat a case and somehow it winds up BEHIND the bolt. So I have to lift the top cover to clear the jam. WTF? seriously. last time, the case mouth bit into the fiber pad on the recoil spring so hard that I had to pry it off how on earth does a case get back there...

Ammo? Mags? Parts?

I think it's called an IMI type 2. I am tall AF, I need a longer stock. Thanks

I would like to try one on my Vector for accuracy testing. What is considered the best barrel brand for accuracy?

I started working on accuracy with my suppressor. I was getting 3" groups at 25 yards by propping on wood blocks. Kind of awkward. What kind of groups have you gotten from your full auto UZI?

Everyone keeps asking what spare parts to get. Wouldn't the better question be: what parts have worn out? Here's my list: An extractor lost its "springyness" after 10 years (guessing maybe 10,000 rounds.) Had to be replaced, I might try re-bending it. The recoil spring has defintely taken a...

I have most of the items that shipped out with Vector SMGs when they were first sold. I have: The white cardboard box with the serial number on the end of the box in sharpie. The warranty card. The xeroxed booklet. The bubble wrap. The printed user manual. The 25 round magazine in the little...

I noticed that Vector shipped their SMGs with a 25 IMI mag in a plastic baggie. I recently spotted some for sale from a gun shop in MA. Any idea why they are in the little baggie?

I had to replace my original extractor after about 10,000 rounds. I wish I had kept a more exact round count. It looks exactly the same as the new one, but the new one definitely fit tighter in its lair in the bolt. I was thinking maybe give it a tiny bend with a lump hammer and a vice and...

I have a bowers CAC with the UZI barrel nut mount on it. It seems to have a really bad effect on accuracy. Like fire a full mag at a piece of 8.5 x 11 paper at 25 yards and have just two or three holes in the paper. when I used to shoot it with my 9mm MAC10, I didn't have this problem. It...

Hi, everyone! I am getting weak extraction from my full size FA vector I tried making my handloads hotter and I tried CCI 147 grain factory ammo. Still getting weak ejection. Made sure my bolt slides freely back and forth. About 0.008 clearance to the top cover. Made sure my bolt is IMI...
