I have a chance to buy from a friend an early 80’s Uzi carbine. The price is good and I have always wanted one. The problem is that I don’t like the gun with the full sized carbine barrel. I have also found sub machinegun barrels on line for <$100.
Has anyone gone through the legal paperwork needed to turn the carbine into a short barreled semi auto? How long did it take?
Thanks for any help.
