I had easy money in my pockets for about 3 days before I decided to blow it on a Uzi Eagle variant of the IMI Jericho 941. I've wanted one since I was a kid, mostly because of the look of the silver barrel and the rounded nose.
This is the compact, double action only, no safety version in .40 cal. I do find it weird that is has no safety and I'd like to convert it so it does have one (there are both on-frame and on-slide versions of the gun) but parts are getting rather scarce, so I'll probably just wait a while before carrying it anywhere without a safety. In any case, some custom work will be involved.
One good thing about the wear is the terrible UZI EAGLE logo in huge letters is worn off most of the way so it doesn't show up in photos.
Anyway I got this it Kiesler's/Orion Arms, service was great as usual (even though they were packed up until closing time).
For those who don't know, the Jericho is the same gun as the Uzi Eagle and Baby Desert Eagle, and they are made mostly out of Tanfoglio Witness parts which are mechanically similar to the CZ75. The gun has polygonal rifling and even though it definitely has seen some major duty it handled really well (despite being the dirtiest gun I've ever cleaned in my life), nothing to report accuracy wise though (test fired 20rds at dusk with no target), taking it out for a spin next weekend during the day, hopefully I'll be able to hit something with it.
Anyway, I'm curious, what do my fellow Indiana residents think about these guns?
