Who uses Wolf ammo in their Vector Uzi?

[bushman]

Anybody have any trouble using 9mm wolf ammo in a FA Uzi?Parts wearing or anything?I didn't know if the steel cases are hard on an Uzi or not.

                  Thanks bushman

Several thousands of rounds thus far.  Lots of flash and fouling.  Good subgun ammo for the cost.  That said, I bought it out of laziness because I just wasn't in the mood to load 9mm in volume; I'm all better now.

I've never used it but the two most common complaints that you hear from many people is that it's very dirty ammo and that the lacquer finish tends to melt when shooting full auto and really gums up the chamber.

I HAVE PUT SEVERAL THOUSAND WOLF 9'S THROUGH MY VECTOR SUB GUN. NO PROBLEM. I CALLED VECTOR AND ASKED THEM ABOUT IT. THEY SAID THAT THEY USE WOLF FOR TEST FIRING THE GUNS BEFORE THEY LEAVE THE FACTORY.

 I use Wolf ammo for Uzi and AKs only,  more for AKs than Uzi.

 BTW , my first post..

It works fine in my Model A (semi). But my UZI pistol will short stroke at least 6 times per 16rd mag. That is using Wolf .45 ammo.

One thing to watch for with Wolf and other Russian ammo:  bi-metal jackets.  Wolf makes some of their ammo in bi-metal only, some in copper only and  in some calibers, you get a choice.

The bi-metal ammo jackets are harder and wear out barrels faster from what I've read.  I don't know if their 9mm is bi-metal or copper - I just avoid it b/c of its reputation for being dirty.

Got more info directly from Wolf.  Look here:

Greetings everyone, I am a newbe to this site, this is my first response. UmKay¿...
I love my UZI, I have the .22 and .45 cal conversions. 2 Weeks ago I went the farm and shot .45cal Wolf ammo, When I got home and was cleaning, I found a bludged barrel. Lucky for me the buldge was just past the locking lug and I was able to tap tap tap the ruiend barrel out with out damaging the receiver. I will never shoot Wolf or any other cheap ammo in my Uzi, FNC or Ac556. It just doesn't make sense to use the cheapest Ammo in expensive guns. Now I am looking for another .45cal barrel and probably will pay $200.00 all because I got cheap on ammo...Hard lesson to learn.
Thanks Guys....out
