First off, it's a shame it's illegal here because I actually wouldn't mind trying one. It looks rather nice indeed. A step up from the usual array of Luty based designs one sees built by illegal manufacturers.



Second, it's likely a modified Uzi clone; Croatia I believe made not-Uzis during the Cold War and it looks like people with gun manufacturing skills have decided to set up an underground factory somewhere that's churning them out.

Once again, gun bans are shown to mean absolutley nothing to people willing to break the law and there exists another firearm I'll never own because of the law.

Ho hum.

Edit: Just to say that it's looking better and better; milled slide and receiver, barrel comes threaded, can take standard Uzi magazines and the aesthetics are wonderful; very 80s.

Makes you wonder why they didn't just set up shop legitimately.

Yep, probably give the big names a run for their money - maybe it's a CIA INC offshoot (no pun intended)..............

I'm sure some wee villagers in Turkey could improve it, they're a dab hand at guns here.

True something we know here, no sympify for this one it just proves your point.

A man murdered in a gun attack in east Belfast overnight has been named as Kevin McGuigan Sr, who was a former member of the Provisional IRA.
Police said he was one of a number of suspects in the murder of Gerard Jock Davison, who was shot dead in May. The chief constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) has said the Provisional IRA still exists.
George Hamilton added that some of its members were involved in the murder of ex-IRA man Kevin McGuigan Sr last week.
