My buddy has an Uzi and he swears it says that it is made in Austria. Has anyone heard of this? I have only heard of the ones made in Isreal.
He says it is a Model D. I  think he means B. Any info until I get pics from hiim will help.

ETA: he will be selling it as soon as we can identify it.

Pretty sure his choices are Israel, Belgium, Croatia, and the US.

Sad bit of irony there.

Uzi is so easy to build up who knows where some may have originated -- many rumors exist of "clean" weapons and/or bogus markings. Of course, gun store commandos could be steering me wrong...

As for manowar's comment, reminds me of conversation with Deutsche business acquaintance at breakfast in Chicago:

Uly: "Man, you can't get a bagel like this in Frankfurt"

Me: "Now whose fault is that?"
