Have a new toy and in the process of purchasing some ammo for it. I have a full auto Vector Uzi in 9mm. I run a gemtech suppressor on it. Not sure if I should stick with 147grn because its subsonic or if regular 115grn will do? Any help is greatly appreciated.

What is the barrel length? In my semi Uzi (no suppressor) I always run as hot of ammo as I can find do to 16 in barrel. I have some German sub machine gun ammo that runs like a champ

The only thing mine didn't like was the CCI Blazer aluminum case ammo. It would run it but, would occasionally have a failure to eject.

I have run 147 subs in my dealer sample full size uzi, it slowed down the cyclic rate a bit but was 100% reliable, I don't see why not run them with or without can, it would be pretty quiet too.
they are bullet hose, everything runs in an Uzi if you have good mags.

I do not remember any ammo that my IMI Uzi SMG did not like. The 147s were quieter with the suppressor but everything worked.
