Micro Uzi/Uzi Pistol
Right now the official policy of IMFDB is to label all Micro Uzis and Uzi Pistols as just "Micro Uzi". This goes against the spirit and intent of the site and the principles of truth and accuracy. I would like to be given the go ahead to go through the site and attempt to determine which appearances are genuine Micro Uzis and which ones are Uzi Pistols converted to full auto.
As far as I know, if it has a compensator and a hinge on the back for a stock, it's a Micro Uzi. If it has neither, it's a converted Uzi Pistol. If it has just the hinge, it's a converted Uzi Pistol with a folding stock installed. If I'm wrong, I welcome any corrections.
An additional note: The Uzi Pistol was introduced in 1984, the Micro Uzi in 1986. Any appearance before 1986 is 100% for sure an Uzi Pistol.
