  Kennedy to endorse Trump

While most of us probably aren't fans, hopefully it'll get a lot of people who don't like President Trump but can't abide today's Democrat party.

  Noreen BN36
Posted by: Quivox - 08-21-2024, 05:20 PM - Forum: Rifles - Replies (1)

Noreen makes what looks like an AR-10 modified to fire 30-06.  There isn't a whole lot of coverage of this particular rifle on the internet, and the reviews I'm finding a mixed on quality and function.   

It's an expensive rifle, $2,700.  Even the magazines are crazy expensive, $150.  

Does anyone have experience dealing with Noreen or their products?

  Uzi
Posted by: srjdsmith - 08-18-2024, 11:44 PM - Forum: Any Other Weapon - Replies (3)

The Uzi has always fascinated me. Especially since Entebbe (I believe many of the Israeli rescuers carried Uzis). I don’t have one. Don’t need one. Can’t afford one. Want one.

It’s my understanding that the original had a fixed firing pin which was really just a protrusion on the front of the bolt. The bolt held open, out of battery and when the trigger was pulled, the bolt traveled forward, stripping a round from the magazine and chambering it. As the bolt slammed into battery, the fixed firing pin hit the primer firing the round and the empty was ejected by blow-back action. Simple. Genius.

I read someone, maybe Mas Ayoob, who said untrained shooters were put off by the inertia of the bolt moving PRIOR to the first shot and it threw off aim for the first shots (full auto). Consequently, a more ‘standard’ closed bolt with a traveling firing pin design was adopted. Correct me if I’m wrong.

But recently I read something that made me think they were saying that ‘open bolt’ designs are not legal (maybe over-applying NFA again?). So, even if you wanted, you couldn’t buy an original design Uzi. Also, I guess what’s the point of an open bolt design if it’s not full auto.

Tell me what I don’t know about Uzis.
