The infobox lists wars in which the Uzi has been used.

a) Most of the list entries are unreffed.

b) The list includes

c) The list includes warious 'metaphorical' criminal wars such as Miami Drug Wars, which actually pipes to an individual drug 'baron-ess', who did have the Uzi used against her on at least one ocassion.

Are these inclusions valid and/or remotely useful? Pincrete (talk) 10:27, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Uzi's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Who the heck uses this weapon in the Syrian civil war? If it was it really should be sourced. ColorfulSmoke (talk) 11:21, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

The main article photo, as well as the one titled "Uzi with folding stock", are both semi-automatic versions licensed to a US retailer (Action Arms LTF) and sold to the public. Im not sure any of the pics are actual original military UZI's from IMI. MI tried finding some public domain pictures but with no success. Ive swapped the main pic to one in the wikimedia which while im not sure where it is from, I do know its not a US version. If anyone could get some photos of actual Israeli versions it would be a good upgrade. Oemurray (talk) 10:00, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
