POTD: UZI in Special Forces Weapons Course
Photo Of The Day – We are back in what may be one of the most popular classes. Unfortunately, most people cannot take it, but at least we’re able to enjoy this picture. I think you share my view that we need more Uzi content, and here we see it on full-auto on the Special Forces Weapons Sergeant Course.
Caption:
A student assigned to the U. S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School who is in the Special Forces Weapons Sergeant Course fires an Uzi submachine gun during weapons training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina May 12, 2020. The Soldiers were trainined to employ, maintain and engage targets with select U.S. and foreign pistols, rifles, shotguns, submachine and machine guns, grenade launchers and mortars and in the utilization of observed fire procedures.

It looks like there is a second Uzi behind and even an M3 Grease gun? Is that a Sten gun at the back as well? Please help us out in the comments below.

No sub-machine gun in use today such as various H&K models favored by various militaries & police are even a patch on the Uzi, it is the ultimate & most reliable SMG ever made, the most battle proven & the only one I would trust in the worst of battlefield conditions & extreme weather.
That could be a picture of me in 1970 at OP 9 at Bragg.
The UZI is one fine gun.
The one in the pic looks just like the one I used, maybe a little less bluing.
2 Uzi's, don't know #3 and 4 does look like a sten.
