This pistol build started when I found a demilled police confiscated Uzi Pistol more than 2 years ago online. This is a compleltly legal to own chunk of scrap metal, it is not a gun. I left it in a box for a while and pretty much forgot about it.

That is until last weekend! I did a hackjob of welding it together and here it is in the rough. Now it is a legal to own semi automatic pistol. Still needs some cleanup but what I have here is probably the only legal to own uzi pistol that is not a California designated “Assault Rifle.” The reason is, This gun was not made by Isreal Military Industries, Instead its a Katzbalger Arms UZIP! Hope to clean it up, engrave a new serial number, test fire it, and paint it all pretty by the end of the month. My welding skills are a little substandard, but this was good practice! No jigs, just used a chunk of copper and vise gripped it together. Used a cheap Everlast TIG for the welding.
