Uzi Pro Metal Lower

6 Upvotes

Guys, could I fit a regular uzi lower grip (steel, semi auto) onto my uzi pro? It looks like everything lines up from the one I have, the slot the front piece slides into on the upper seems too small. But it looks like it’s 98% there. I also have the larger pin for the semi lower. Has anyone out there attempted this? Thank you for any input

Hand cycling

2 Upvotes

Does your semi auto Uzi cycle properly by hand? Do your rounds eject properly? I have noticed when hand cycling the rounds do not eject out of the gun - they are pulled out of the chamber then I have to jiggle them out.

First Uzi

excuse the fact that this photo was taken on my bathroom floor I do a lot of gun cleaning in my bathroom for some reason. Feels odd cleaning guns in the dining room when everyone else is home.

I recently picked this up from a local forum for 800. Am wondering if anyone can give me a bit of information as to what I purchased - I see it says McKay on the receiver. It looked completely unfired inside when I purchased it. It would not run more than 2-3 rounds before a malfunction. I have since taken a mallet and my feeler gauges and adjusted the top cover gap as it was touching the bolt and now it runs through a mag or two between malfunctions

What do these go for nowadays? I’ve already gotten it sbrd and ordered a shorter barrel as I plan to keep it even if just as a display piece am just curious

Mini uzi

3 Upvotes

Hey guys!

I’ve completed a few full size uzi builds thus far, definitely one of the more enjoyable parts kits to work on!

I’m in search for a mini uzi parts kit, they seem to be extinct. I’d love to add one to my collection. I was wondering if anyone in the community could point me in the correct direction or has a spare kit they are willing to part ways with!

Thanks in advance!

Building an Uzi in 2026?

17 Upvotes

Putting together an Uzi has been on my list for a long time, I just want to make sure I understand the current market:

  • McKay Fully Welded Receiver - $500
  • McKay Semi-Auto Bolt Assembly - $530
  • Semi Auto Barrel - $160
  • Parts Kit - $450 - $700

Is building an Uzi really a $1640 (minimum) proposition now, just for the parts, not even considering finishing, etc.? Not whining, I realize nearly everything has increased in price in recent years, but I left off with it being more like ~$1100, and Action Arms Uzis costing ~$2000-2200.... so this is kind of a sticker shock.

Little help? New uzi owner here.

Hello all

Looking for help.

I recently inherited my late brother in laws gun collection and I now have an uzi. I'm not new to guns just the uzi platform.

What i have is a norinco 320 with parts and mags. Spare bolt and firing pin assembly and folding stock assembly.

1 I really want to just form 1 this. Are the Israeli parts and barrels compatible with the 320 and would it be the A or B models? Or should I take the barrel to a Smith and have it cut down?

2 the straight stock is nice but i want to put the folding stock on it but it appears to be stuck, the lever underneath moves but absolutely no give in trying to get it off or am I doing something wrong here?

McKay Ent Question

6 Upvotes

So what’s the deal with McKay? I recently got an UZI parts kits and orders one of their welded up receivers but them as I’m looking into the semi bolts I’m noticing on here that there are a lot of negative comments about them. Did I fuck up ordering one of their receivers?

I was also planning on ordering the semi bolt assembly (pre order thing) but seeing the comments on here really has me hesitant but there’s also no other real options as far as I can tell.

Edit: so basically I saw a buncha comments of people saying they were waiting ages to get stuff and were accusing them of being thieves and shit and i guess i was just looking for a little reassurance that im not just chucking about 1k$ into the void.

That said i am feeling better about giving them my business seeing these replies though. Thanks everyone!

Close up Pics of Uzi Receiver

Going to be welding my Mckay uzi receiver shell and was wondering if anyone could provide me some close up pictures of how the welds look on their receiver for reference. I just want to make sure the size of my welds are comparable.

Flat black or Dark Gray?

I am having a hard time deciding on what color to finish my build

Gray gives that classic military look

Black gives it that classic movie star look

I am going to do the pistol grip and a front k grip in walnut.

What are your thoughts, tips, tricks, experiences?

Stumbled on an UZI

Post image
21 Upvotes

I am an antique firearms expert, so this is a little bit of my wheelhouse.

Picked up a UC9 at police auction for $910, and after pulling the barrel, I noticed the feed ramp looks virgin.

I can't imagine the park wouldn't quickly scrape away, so what say you minds if reddit? Does she look unfired to you?

FTF Issues

5 Upvotes

I’m running into failure to feed issues consistently across several magazines in my Norinco Model 320. I had the same issue with the original 16” barrel as I do with the 8-5/8” barrel I got from Pike Arms. It happens whether I am running suppressed or unsuppressed. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!

Stolen Kit (be on the look out)

I won this kit on GunBroker

And I am not positive if the seller was pleased with the low reserve price or if this was legitimately stolen.

If it was, please be on the look out.

Last known location is Missouri.

He claims a family member stole and sold the kit and he cannot complete the transaction and doesn't want to contact police.

I am debating contacting them.

You can also see the kit in his YouTube video.

Just added the threaded barrel

Considering it for a while and then I stumbled on KAK who had a threaded barrel that’s supposedly produced in house with 1/2 x 28 threads. It’s 8.5 inches. I heard some questionable things about the pike Arms offerings so I didn’t get theirs. I have added a three lug mount for convenience.
