Airsoft Uzi - Why Do Folks Go Crazy For this Gun?
It can be said that the Uzi maintains a cult following among aficionados of machine guns and automatic weapons. The Uzi was developed by the Israeli military in the aftermath of the First Arab-Israeli War in the 1940's. Its use was later adopted by the Israeli Defense Force.
This weapon was a submachine gun closer to a larger pistol than a rifle which made it an odd choice for the military. However, the uniqueness of its design was not ignored by the motion picture industry and it was used in several motion pictures.
From this, it entered into the world of popular culture. This is why it should come as no surprise that it is used in airsoft gun games!
The Airsoft Uzi Gun - Overview
UHC UZI Mini Electric Airsoft Gun
The way Uzi Airsoft guns work is virtually the same as traditional airsoft weapons. Pellets are projected from the gun at high velocities via compressed air, gas, or via an electric motor.
The latter two variants allow Uzis to operate at semi and fully automatic capabilities. However, spring loaded Uzis will only be able to fire at a semi-automatic basis. Really, if you are looking for a fully automatic version, it would be best to stick with the more reliable electric airsoft uzi's motor version.
Pros and Cons - the Uzi Airsoft Submachine Gun

Both the pros and the cons of an airsoft Uzi are the same - it is a weapon designed for urban warfare.
At the time of the First Arab-Israeli War, Israel
was surrounded by several hostile enemies that were provoking ground invasions. Since combat would be relegated to urban areas, a compact submachine gun would make sense.
However, for gaming purposes, this airsoft gun would probably not make a decent transition to environments where rifles might be a better option.
