Our Assessment: Due to the popularity of the original Uzi submachine guns, it makes sense that clones and semi-auto versions would appear on the market. IMI-Israel capitalized on the infamy and admiration the Uzi’s received when they created their Uzi Model B. The guns IMI made in Israel are the same outstanding quality as the IMI submachine guns. Sure it feels like a brick in your hands, but you will build arm muscles and look cooler than half the other people at the range with this gun in your hands, especially with the wood stock, scope mount, and shrouded barrel combo. So bid on this pre ban firearm and add it to your lineup! Happy Bidding!
