U.Z.I.

The Mini Uzi, referred to as the U.Z.I., is featured in Call of Juarez: The Cartel.

Mechanics
The Mini Uzi is basically a smaller version of the Uzi submachine gun. It is 24 inches long and 14 inches long with the stock folded. The Mini Uzi fires around 950 rounds/min. The Uzi uses an open bolt, blowback action. This allows greater cooling during continuous fire, but also enables the reciever to be contaminated with dust or dirt. The pistol grip has a grip safety, preventing it from being fired accidently. However, the protruding magazine makes the Uzi difficult to fire when prone.

Call of Juarez: The Cartel
The U.Z.I. is used early in the game (one of the main weapons of the Rolling 50s street gang), and is used throughout the game. It has the highest rate of fire of any weapon in the game, and is especially useful in concentration mode. Eddie Guerra uses the U.Z.I. early in the game, and later switches it out for two 92FS pistols. The U.Z.I. is one of three (the other being the Skorpion and TMP (for those who got it as a pre-order reward)) submachine guns that can be dual-wielded by Eddie and used during Team Entry. It is unlocked by achieving Level 3 in the Secret Agenda.

Trivia

 * The U.Z.I. is modeled after the Mini Uzi, although in the weapons selection screen it shows the full sized Uzi submachine gun.
 * It should be noted that while only Eddie can dual wield the U.Z.I. (along with the Skorpion and TMP), Ben and Kim can wield the U.Z.I. with a handgun. This is done by wielding one handgun and picking up Rifle Ammo. The U.Z.I., Skorpion, and TMP will automatically be wielded alongside the handgun.
