Like mine, built it and a Glock magazine pattern which I didn’t really care for, tragically lost in a maritime incident.
I was issued one back in the mid to late 90s. The only negative I have was the original Colt magazines. The quickest way to unload the magazine was to drop it. Turn into a bullet fountain lol.if you drop loaded mags (tac loads at matches) they tend to spit bullets everywhere. LOL.
They are very controllable. It was very easy to flip the giggle switch and do a mag dump keeping all 30 rounds inside a 3” circle. I probably couldn’t do it now that I’m old and falling apart lol.It impressed me with how controllable it was and the comfort.
I have a very early slab side I'll dig it out made about 81-82Anyone have experience or own one of these boogers?

I'm thinking it would be a lot of fun with a carry handle. I know it's overpriced because "Colt". I know the mags aren't cheap and some of them suck.
When I was buying them that was all that was available that function.Magazines are inexpensive, unless they're Colt marked.......
This isn't a dig as times change. The last 25 I bought cost just under $30 per mag for Metalforms from gunmagwarehouse. I've been down the mag mod route with my mod'd grease gun mags for my ar-45 and unless your retired and have 30-45 minutes per mag to disassemble, mark up, machine, clean (blow out all the shavings etc), relube/protect (I cook them in paste wax) its not worth it when the base price is $9-14 per for an uzi to cut the notch in.Magazines are inexpensive, unless they're Colt marked.......
Kinda like Wanting a beautiful mate and settling for Phyliss Diller.
Anyone have experience or own one of these boogers?
