Not mine, sadly. The best I've ever seen on YouTube. All manner of Class lll goodness. Crazy inside-the-chamber camera angles. Heaven |

Side track question here on the Uzi: Why would a weapon fire from an open bolt? Doesn't that decrease accuracy, increase the number of case ruptures, and let all sorts of gunk and dirt into the gun? Imagine trying to keep that thing clean on the battle field with a gaping hole in it like that. |
Simplicity of design, less parts to break. Accuracy is only affected on the first round, subsequent rounds are as accurate as an MP-5. As far as gunk and dirt, you "carry" an open bolt gun with the bolt closed, and only charge it when you are ready to or expect to fire. If you look at the UZI, there are large groves inside the receiver, they are for sand and dirt to congregate while the bolt functions, eliminating stoppages from debris. I've fired about 3,000 rounds through my UZI, and have not had a single case rupture.

there's that "cooking-off" thing too. |
The UZI, Sten, Sterling, Tommy Gun, MG42, PPSH41, FN Minimi or M249SAW would all tend to disagree with you. |
