When i got this uzi, knowing it would be more of a show piece then a gamer, i purchased 2 spare mags and the 3-mag vest to start getting it prepped for game use anyways, and then realized the vest holds three and the gun takes a fourth, duh, (im not the sharpest, but im good guy in my opinion, haha). since both spares worked, had room for a third in the vest, i ordered 2 more (i know, 5 in total when i can only carry 4 comfortably)..only problem was that they both leaked...i was really suprised, slightly upset and a bit confused, since no less then a month prior i got two that still work...then when www.replicaairguns.ca said they couldnt return (or even exchange for the same) cause i opened them, i decided to try an learn with the two duds...they didnt break, these mags leaked out of the package in true dud fashion. I got one leak fixed, by getting a new o ring from can tire that fit better (it wasnt cracked, had never been used, but between the new piece and the two important tips i read to maintain the working ones for years to come, (a) silicone on each cart (b) tighten lightly, no more than needed, i was able to fix one...(so at least, my vest is packed and i got one in the gun)..but i still have a fifth, leaky mag...haha. Interestingly, the one i fixed was leaking worse while the one i've yet to fix seem to leak slower and from the top near the BBs....any ideas? it almost seems as if the little valve pin thingy isnt coming back out all the way, or its stuck slightlypushed in...if that makes sense to a reader, im sorry im horrible at describing or even understanding well written instructions (like me trying to get the AI cyclone to detonate properly, sry im bad with side tangents, my life is a footnotes to a footnote)

I love my KWC uzi (loved the mp7, tech9, & mini SMGs as a kid so had to get it)..but upon the immediate realization that, as is, it was way too impractical to game with... A.) a primary weapon shouldn't be restricted to 38 rnd mags, B.) one Co2 cart per mag is tough to manage from the trenches, and thats what you get when its only on semi. C.) its inaccuracy/poor Co2 consumption in the full-auto mode render it somewhat useless in game play.....HOWEVER, if i treat it as an intimidating secondary, keep a shoulder sling on it, and wear the mp7 vest that holds 3 mags...it would be soo bad ass....a bit heavier than even the dual desert eagles i've been using as secondaries, w/ a the half-a-dozen spare mags..but i like the idea of both cause the vest came with a hip buckle-strap that is perfect for holding the dual d.eagle pit-holster secured to my sides so it doesnt flop around. its a fun gun and im getting my monies worth forsure....but when the thing does crap out on me cause of its kwc quality, i will come back (to a sep thread) and explain why it failed and how much real use i got out of it..
