I am so damn tired of Uzi top covers failing, losing components, bending out of spec, causing runaways, etc.

 

Well I got these in (found a deal, 11 top covers for $100) and I am going to bend them all in spec and toss the ones that are beyond fixing.

Fucking top covers on these guns are the weak link in the design.

"So, as almost everyone is puzzled what it is, here's the answer
It's a suppressed bolt action nail gun, known as RG019 (РГ019)
It is intended to fire special catridges, based on 7.62x39 case, loaded with steel nails, to fix various interesting stuff (i.e. demolition charges) to steel and concrete structures, underwater or on the air. It had a built-in automated safety to permit firing only at point-blak distance, with te tip of the suppressor firmly placed against the surface.
Apparently it's still in use by Spetsnaz, although without that peculiar brighd red color added."
