Wood Furniture

[mistanate]

Just came across this listing on GB for custom wood furniture for Uzi carbines (maybe Minis and pistols too?). I love the classic look of wood and steel on pistols and rifles, but wood on an Uzi just looks... a bit different, and not quite my taste. Looks like they do great work though. Definitely took some time to write that cut file for the CNC.

People have asked for them over the years so maybe there will be interest, though the price is pretty steep. They should have put a wood stock on the gun for the photos.

^^^ Perhaps some micro Gold sprinkles were added in the finish? ^^^ Or should be Ha Ha!

it’d be neat, but i’m fine with just the wood stocks

Kind of expensive

but they'll probably sell OK

I love it but yeah too expensive for me. Nice looking setup - thank you for sharing that

Per Dave's book, early Uzi prototypes had all wood hand guards, grips, and stocks. Perhaps that is the look that is being emulated.
I don't have any interest in purchasing those parts, but I don't think that the pricing is out of line either when compared to what I paid for an AR-15 Boyd's wood handguard and AR-15 Kalashnicarver Mauser C-96-esque wood hand grip several years ago.
MHO, YMMV, etc.

If it had the stock I'd think it was worth it.

I paid 150 for a S12 forearm and stock new production.
And have seen 20 inch new production AR furniture for 219 just last week.

The stuff he is selling is great looking but pricey.
And when broken down it's only 50 bux per slab of wood.
I can't stress enough I'd buy a set if it had the matching wood stock.
One thing I can't stand is mis-matched furniture.
AK guns seem to be the worst offenders of that.
