hitmanNo2 Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 It looks like Northeast, after doing their Sten, are setting their sights on GBB Uzis. Mini and full sized. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Let's hope they make Co2 mags for these, that big ol' telescoping bolt will have a lot of mass to shift. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 GBB full-size UZI with CO2 magazines? SIGN ME UP. Link to post Share on other sites
Zereck Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 There was also a PM9 tough only in mock-up. Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted December 14, 2019 Report Share Posted December 14, 2019 I wonder if they'll make them compatible with kwc mags, or if they're going to design their own proprietary mag. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted December 14, 2019 Report Share Posted December 14, 2019 Haven't seen an UZI pictured in a long time, and every time I see one all I can think of "My G*d, that is one ugly mother..." 😛 Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted December 14, 2019 Report Share Posted December 14, 2019 The Minebea 9mm threw me off thinking the Uzis were to be static props made by that Japanese company selling resin garage kits. Link to post Share on other sites

svman Posted December 14, 2019 Report Share Posted December 14, 2019 Same here. Full size uzi? I'm having that. Would like to see a micro come out as well. I like my maruzen type u but something a little less plasticky with more range would be awsome Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnman Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I remember the PM9 kit for the KSC MAC11. It was HW plastic and was 900 USD! They also made a Jatimatic using KSC MAC11, which was cooler. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted February 4, 2020 Report Share Posted February 4, 2020 OMG Uzi’s Bren 10 from WE ( everything can’t be perfect) and a 416 from DBLS, this could be one very expensive year Link to post Share on other sites

I know because I'm the one who faked it, didn't mean for it to be construed as an actual project, just wanted to poke WE into making one! Sorry. Link to post Share on other sites

3vi1-D4n Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Actually I would rather have a green gas UZI. I already have a closed bolt KWC Mini UZI which annoys me a bit that it isn't skirmish practical. For most green gas GBBs one wants the ability to fire half a mag of BBs during an engagement, and then top up BBs and gas ready for the next engagement. But with CO2 you can't, as you have a partially gassed mag which won't fire the rest of the BBs if you go for a top up. Also CO2 mags only lasts at best 1.5 charge per mag and the overhanging bolt and spring tension isn't really that heavy. WE Thompsons, M4s and AKs have larger and heavier bolts than the KWC UZI yet still able to fire far more shots per magazine. Link to post Share on other sites

Waiting for my adapters to be counterbored and we should be good to go. Link to post Share on other sites
3vi1-D4n Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 I am a bit behind the times, I thought the DH mod was converting a GHK magazine to take CO2 capsule? Since the Mini UZI is already a CO2 gun, is the DH mod a bit defunct? Unless you are talking about modifying a standard green gas magazine to fill and use liquid CO2 via an injector adaptor for a CO2 bottle (not running a remote line). Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 AFAIK DH mod = modifying GHK mags (just the o-rings really) to take injected CO2, not capsules. Capsules are junk. Link to post Share on other sites
3vi1-D4n Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 I have seen DH mods with CO2 capsules, but yes capsules take up space and are prone to cool down just as much as green gas. Any recommendations around whats a good gas injector unit working off a CO2 bottle? And how much more efficiency do you get out of a magazine (using say a GHK M4 as a base model). Depending on the price, the full sized UZI would make a great addition to my collection. For the last 12 years I have been running exclusively ol'school IDF shirt and pants, A11 ephrod, M16A1/CAR15 Mekutzrar/Galil ARM/MAG58/Mini UZI. Only thing I don't have is a Tavor (sold 3 AEG ones), a micro UZI (Sold my Maruzen with a folding stock), and a full sized skirmishable UZI (sold 2 AEG ones), a pair of red IDF boots, and an M1 helmet (which I despise as I spent far too long in one back in the day).

sandstorm Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 What I would like, actually, is a civi model carbine with the wooden stock and 16" barrel, just to be really different. A friend had the real steel, and it sure drew attention at the range. Link to post Share on other sites

A friend had the real steel, and it sure drew attention at the range. The wood stock was actually the original configuration of the Uzi. It isn't as well-known as the underfolder, and obviously isn't as compact (although it can be removed for transport), but it's a better (shorter) LOP and MUCH better cheek weld. 16" would be a civilian-only thing though. I built an Uzi SBR from a parts kit and receiver flat so I'm pretty much obligated to buy the Northeast version when it comes out. I've only heard good things about the Sten.

BigAl Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 The Civi 16" Carbines where closed bolt semi auto only models made for US market. Link to post Share on other sites
CatgutViolin Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 I apologize for resurrecting this thread a year later without any earth-shattering news, but I reached out to Northeast to ask when they plan to release and got this: Quote Hi there, it’s on schedule, thanks for asking. We plan to release in the summer time when the weather is hotter and we will have better selling GBb as well. And hope the pandemic is gone then So hopefully not too much longer now.
