Uzi Operational Briefcase: Anyone Seen One or Have Idea of Value

[johnthedford]

I have an operational briefcase. It appears to have been made by the same people that made the MAC operational cases with same fire control lever, same leather, and same interior. I want to put this on the market but suspect it will be worth quite a bit more than that MAC cases.

Let me know when you figure out what you would like for it

Maybe @ROVER DAVE can give some input? I have seen or heard of two in the past 24 years. I am sure there are a few out there, but have never seen another one for sale. I will be posting this as soon as I get an idea of FMV.

There is one currently listed on GunBroker for $575. Not sure if that’s a good price or not.

If that is an original that sounds way undervalued. To my knowledge they are not easy to come by.

The one on gunbroker isn't "operational". There is no mechanism to make it fire from inside the case. It is the samsonote version used by the secret service in the 80s. It is appropriately priced for what it is and from what I've seen these go for in the past.
Never seen an operational case though.

That was my suspicion but haven't had time to go look. I still have one Uzi case (Samsonite) that I would probably take 1/2 that for (if I can find it). I have only seen or heard of one other operational case. Not sure if Dave covered it in his book or not.

Sorry, I don't have any information on the UZI operational briefcase.

I might be interested in buying thatSamsonite case just to add to the Uzi collection.

Sorry I didn't realize that there was a different ones. I am pretty new to the Uzi platform. I would be interested in seeing photos of that briefcase if you have a chance to put a few on here. Good luck.

Uzi op case is now posted on the parts board. I have only seen two in 24 years and IMO are pretty scarce.

 

[johnthedford]

I posted a couple pics on my FB page John Thedford. Case has been spoken for.

Whoever buys this thing from John, I'm dying to see good pics of this thing

It is just like the MAC op cases but Uzi is too large to hold a suppressor. I took five pics and one came out good enough to post here.

That looks like the cobray one from the YouTube video. I don't think that would be too hard to make
