That's the utmost  :viking:

My brother had never even fired a real pistol in the Swedish Voluntarily Officer Education, which is kind of a pre-school for youngsters before they go to the army, only rifles and sub-machineguns. In Nevada he fired a Glock for the first time in his life, some big revolver, an M-16 and a Uzi. Not even the Swedish army has Uzis.  :-\

but they have MP5's
why have UZI if you have MP5?

personally, i think the UZI looks prettyer, in an opposite sort of way, like... its more tool-like, more "industrial" perhaps. it doesnt care about its appearance :M

Rumour has it that Uzis were made as make-shift guns in the war against the Arabs in 1948, at least the prototype. That is certainly   :viking: if it's true.

sounds reasonable, given the origin and time of development

i believe what actually happend if memory serves right (could be wrong) is a solder in that war saw the need for some arm like an uzi and when he got discharged he went to work and built one, the uzi was the results of his hard works and labour

I had a good friend how kept an Uzi on his sail boat and a M14 next to his bed :laugh:  He was a lot of fun we used to go sailing when we were supposed to be at work.  He moved to the west coast 20 years ago

M14 is a PITA to field strip, Uzi is easy as pie. AKs are easy too.

He loved his guns and his pot which he grew in his living room.  He had a whole host of other guns but those were his favorites.  His wife had one on her side of the bed also I cant remember what :laugh:  they lived in a rather shitty neighborhood

I love the image of his-and-hers firearms by the bed. Imagine breaking into a house in the middle of the night and being confronted by that!   :headbang:

i have two memorable moments from the military when it comes to stripping down the G3 rifle
1. was when we were told to never take the actual trigger mechanism apart, and some smartass did, and *twoing* indeed, there went a little spring, and he landed himself in big trouble :]
for extra lulz we were telling him "hey, your not supposed to take it apart" and he of course went "buzz off i know what im do- Oh.. shit." "HAVE FUN MAN!"
2. a guy who did eeeverything slowly. the gas mask drill lasted a whole week cus of that one guy and him alone.
i remember watching him putting the rifle back together again, aaages after everyone were done. and i remember him unknowingly rolling a part away from himself, clumsily looking for it. and i discretely kicked it back his way, so we could for once be finished for the day, and he STILL didnt see it, i basically GAVE it back to him, and he was all "wheeere did i put it... "

some people.....
that guy actually had the most amazing singing voice :S

This is how it looks at a Swedish shooting club. These contests are in principle compulsory if you want to keep your license, and you can see the rigid discipline. And no matter how good you are at shooting, this is the only place where you are allowed to fire a pistol. Not really like the US...  :(
