The Uzi is a submachine gun using 9mm rounds. Despite its low base damage, it can still dish out considerable damage due to its high rate of fire.

Crafting

The Uzi can be crafted like so:

Light Desh Barrel
Light Desh Receiver

Uzi

The Uzi requires both desh and plastic to make, making it available after basic oil processing.

Mechanics and Play

As a submachine gun, the Uzi fires fully automatic, with a considerably higher rate of fire compared to the grease gun. And just like the grease gun, it too has an innate inaccuracy, meaning that even when using sights, shots may be off, although the Uzi's inaccuracy is rather mild, making it still viable for medium range combat.

Despite having a relatively high ammo capacity of 30 rounds, the rate of fire is still high enough to empty the entire magazine within three seconds of sustained fire.

The B-side of the Uzi is the Uzis, a dual-wielded version. The stats are precisely the same, however due to not having usable sights (a trait shared with all akimbo guns), it has no hipfire penalty, meaning shots are always as accurate as they would be if fired with a single Uzi while using sights.

Having two guns simply means being able to fire twice as fast, while reloading at the same speed, since both guns can be reloaded at once. Note that the recoil of both guns stacks, and while a single Uzi has relatively little recoil, firing both at once makes controlling the guns noticeably harder.

Crafting the Uzis

The Uzis can be made by simply combining two single Uzis with a weapon steel mechanism:

Mods

  • Silencer: Replaces the firing sound with a much quieter one.
  • Double-Stacked Magazine: Replaces the single-stacked SMG magazine with a double-stacked version, which increases the ammo capacity by 50%. This bonus is applied last, after the changes made by the ammo conversions.
  • Saturnite Skin: Replaces the standard receiver with a saturnite version, giving the gun its recognizable blueish color. Increases durability fivefold, and adds 3 points (1.5 hearts) to the base damage, effectively doubling it.
  • .22 LR Conversion Kit: Rechambers the gun to .22 LR, which is cheaper and smaller, giving the Uzi an ammo capacity of 40.
  • .45 Conversion Kit: Allows the Uzi to fire the more powerful .45 caliber, but reduces the ammo capacity to 24.

The Uzi and the dual-wielded version both take the same mods, however for the dual-wielded Uzis, a mod only applies to one of both guns. Therefore, for applying a mod to both, two of that mod are required. The gun being modded can be switched by clicking the button next to the number (the gun's index), the left Uzi has index 1 and the right one has index 2.

Attaching a silencer to a regular Uzi renames it to "Richter", in reference to Richter Berg, a character from the Hotline Miami games, who uses a silenced Uzi as his signature weapon.
