I’ve never really known ARF to really try to talk people out of a gun.

I have an MPA9 that I bought purely for fun. I have about 70 or so Uzi mags right now as well as an Uzi Full-size pistol and an 9mm AR that takes unmodded uzi mags.

I keep getting this nagging desire to have a Uzi micro. Maybe an Uzi pro. (I know the pro doesn’t take I missed Uzi mags. But I can have some of the mags I have cut for a mag release and thus use what I have.)

What say the hive?

I say get an UZI. But for that price you could get a CZ scorpion or for a few hundred more a turkish MP5K clone either of which is better in every way except mag compatibility with your supply.

But if you don't have an Uzi. Get one. They are better than Macs or Tec-9s, which are trash.

Micro uzis are collectors items. If you've got the dough then do it. As for the uzi pro, I always thought it was just overpriced from the factory, for something relatively obsolete.

I'll put my M10 against any Uzi any day of the week.

Playing around.  Obviously, I'm not talking about a stock configuration, apples-to-apples comparison.  And not talking about semi-auto PCCs.

i have seen some internet stuff that shows custom uppers on full auto M10s can be amazing.

Most, to include UZI's and even MP5s, are one trick pony SMGs.

I had thought of buying an UZI years ago, looked at MP5s and decided meh....

Take a look at MAC, in particular the M11 9mm and the Lage accessories. IMO it's the best bang for the buck and when Kamala does the Oz confiscation you're only out $10k instead of $20-45K.

Got a Tec-9 with the original barrel extension and flash hider. Original case and multiple mags too.

It looks about as badass as a gun can look. It shoots like a dog. Wildly inaccurate and prone to jam. I shot out the ceiling lights at a local range trying to hip fire it ala 90's movies.

Yet I would never sell it. It is perfect to make liberals heads explode.

Also have an MP5. This is another universe of shooting fun.

Gotta have the terrifying three they are iconic 80's movie guns and as mentioned make liberals heads explode just from the images of them.

That said i'd put my m10 with my lage 10/31 upper up against most other gun in a subgun match.

Just look at the stats most matches the mac series gun with a lage upper is in the top 4 winning spots.

Beating out those 30k mp5s and other subguns.

Tec9. I had to have one. 1987, my first 9mm.  

Worst gun I’ve ever owned. Literally every other round was a FTF, FTE, or some other feeding issue.  Gun smith laughed when I brought it in.

Thats what I would get.

Guy I used to know had that. Full auto. Sometimes with that stock. Sometimes with the wooden stock.   Runnin that thing suppressed fulfilled my 80s childhood dreams.

Mac was fun too.  But Uzi for me

Is the member still here who years ago,made his own uzi suppressor, square to continue the lines of the gun? I always thought that was a cool build thread.

If you see a cheap Tec9 or derivative at a gun shop, such as $300 or less, buy it immediately. Especially with the ventilated barrel shroud. The parts kits for these guns have gone insane since the Ghetto Blaster receiver plans were released.

I haven't seen a TEC-9 for less than $600 in at least a decade, which makes me sad because I want one BADLY. I know it's a trash gun, but it's just so damned iconic and sexy.
ETA: I do already have an UZI, so there's that. But TEC-9 and MAC-10... I haz wants.

Having all f the things mentioned in various forms the best overall semi I think is the Scorpion. The MP5 is over rated, mags are expensive and hard to accessorize.

My registered MAC laughs at your last statement though.

The MP5 and Uzi are iconic and Uzi parts are everywhere and cheap but they are heavy for what they are.  

The Scorpion is easy to accessorize and mags are cheap. I know it doesn’t answer your original question but get one of those.

I dunno about that statement.....

Can you shoot .556 steel case out of an Uzi? Because a M11/9 with a Lage upper can

I wouldn't call it trash, cheaply made, simply engineered, reliable and fun to shoot? Yes

tec-9 is actually really comfortable to shoot

the only downside is that you have to have oem mags - all aftermarket ones are garbage. frames tend to crack with high powered ammo too.

Ammo isn't a problem.

I had a tec9 I got for a deal a l ok ng time ago. Many hours of tinkering with it to get it remotely reliable. Even then it had a very hard time getting through a magazine.

Have got my powder springs Mac-10 with matching manufacturer suppressor
Works good with factory ammo

I would’ve like to see Lage make a conversion with something other than some obscure and maybe rare magazine
I’d want it to shoot 5.56, not 9mm para or makarov

And I regret not getting something else back then too, belt fed in particular
And do want an uzi.  I don’t know why I didn’t try to buy one back then.   Maybe eventually rebuild something from parts

The Tec9 is actually kind of fun to shoot, but almost none of them actually run.

A reliable version of this that has a pic rail up top and 1/2x28 muzzle threads could find a home in my collection.

Every time I want one, there are no kit builds currently on the market, and every time there are kit builds on the market, I don't have the money.  Someone's got a fully built reciever (sans barrel and bolt) on GB right now starting bid $800 and I'm thinkin' bout it...
