everything having to do specifically with the Mini Uzi, accessory wise.

the SMG version:

- MAGAZINES:
Magazines come in many
different varieties and variants. Before
continuing any further, please read through
the Uzitalk.com magazine information HERE.
I only have magazines that would have been used specifically by the IDF
(parkerized and star stamped), or else mags that are marked IMI and
painted blackfor commercial (Action Arms) purposes.
Action Arms sold 9mm magazines
that came in boxes in 20, 25 and 32
round capacities. Plese note that only a handful of the mags shown
below came in these boxes. The first type of box they
came in was white and had the Action Arms
logo on one side and a line indicating the type of mag inside on the
opposite side of the box: The next version had a
checklist of the different types of mags
available on the other to indicate the contents: The box style as later changed
as Action Arms added more mags to their
lineup. The new style had a repeating blue Uzi logo background, with
the Action Arms logo on the front and the new checklist on the back:
20 round, no markings, flat back, painted finish:
Like the Action Arms boxed magazines, any of the tools that came
through Action Arms that came in a box, first came in a white
style box with the Action Arms logo on one side and the type of tool on
the other:
These
boxes later changed to a box that had a repeating blue Uzi logo as a
background, still with the Acton Arms logo on the front and the tool
checklist on the back:
