Mini-UZI Physical Characteristics
The Mini-UZI essentially shared the same external appearance of her larger sister. She sported a 7.75-inch barrel buried deep within a handy frame. The pistol grip was straight and accepted the typical UZI-straight magazines through the grip base. The trigger sat in a boxy trigger guard under a rectangular receiver. The receiver itself was essentially the length of the entire weapon with the exception of the collapsible wire shoulder stock. The stock folded over to the side of the receiver when not in use. Like the base UZI, the Mini-UZI made use of the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge. Magazine lengths varied based on the operator and mission type and ranged from a special 20-round capacity to the UZI-standard 25- and 32-round magazines. Unloaded weight was listed at just over 5lbs. Muzzle velocity was rated at 1,150 feet per second.
