Default Micro Uzi Pistol

Does anybody know where I can find a micro Uzi pistol at? I haven't seen one in stores for years. I could've bought a full auto with a laser (lasers were cool in the 80's) for around $1000. I kick myself all the time for not getting it. I'll settle for the semi-auto now. So, if anybody has or knows of one for sale let me know. Thanks.

Bud's has the MPA 930 9mm.

You should be able to get mags from Riflegear.

Good hunting!

I remember years back I had the opportunity to buy a full auto Intratec TEC-9 for couple hundred dollars. You're not the only one kicking themselves so don't feel bad.

I already have a couple MPA's. They are more "MAC -11" style though.

In full auto - yes please!
In semi-auto - meh, what's the point?

Would this one be fine, since it is I.W.I and not I.M.I?

Look carefully at the picture from the GB ad. The pistol is advertised incorrectly as an "Uzi Pistol" when it is a Micro Uzi and if you examine the bottom photo, you can see where the receiver is stamped, "IMI ISRAEL"

No other companies ever made clones of the Micro Uzi, only the full sized carbine and Uzi pistol, which this is not. To be Cal legal, your only options are to either buy a full sized Uzi pistol or Carbine clone (Vector, Century, Norinco) or buy the new Uzi Pro via SSE as shown above. I own an Uzi carbine and have shot all of the Uzi family in semi and full auto versions. Trust me, unless you just have your heart set on owning one to say you own one, the Uzi pistols are not very good to shoot, they are heavy, ungainly and for less money you could buy something that is actually useful and fun to shoot like a Walther PPQ.

They are incredibly fun in full auto but when you lose the full auto capability, they are suddenly a dud.

No. Because it's a make/model banned.
(make) IMI (model) Uzi Pistol.

Receiver is engraved:
Action Arms Ltd.
Phila. Pa.
I.M.I. Isreal.

I.M.I. upside is I.W.I.

Looks like I won't be getting it. It is more of a nostalgic gun for me than anything. I was only 25 when I could have bought the full auto version, and would've liked to get the same gun now but in semi-auto now.

Scars, Tavors, Kriss Vectors are ugly to me, but people love them. Dare I say...Glocks.....as well.

Doesnt matter how ugly and unconventional a firearm can be. Someone will love it.

When you own 100+ guns, you like unique and different.

Check with Tracy Pistol and Rifle. I got my Vector "Uzi" Pistol there. I think there was a mini Vector "Uzi" also on display for less than $1000.

Not ugly to me. The UZI SMG's and UZI Pistols have a classic and unique look all to themselves.

Go for it OP. Get one. Give us a range report when you do.

Vector makes a pretty decent looking clone. Been about 2-3 years since I have seen one though. Might be worth checking Atlantic from time to time?
