Experts as a favor could you identify for me.

No, he did not. Agent Robert Wanko had a full-sized Uzi ......

With a last name like "Wanko" you'd pretty much carry an Uzi just to get anyone to take you seriously. I'd bet he had fun with that name in school. Probably where he got most of his hand-to-hand combat training. I sure wouldn't want to p... him off.

No, he did not. Agent Robert Wanko had a full-sized Uzi in the Reagan attempt. Don't believe me? Compare the length of the fore-end .......

As for having a 10" barrel, sure it does - but most of it's internal thanks to the telescoping-bolt design; not much of the barrel is exposed. It's a non-issue to hide a full-sized Uzi (ie. an original full-auto, not the civilian version with a huge long barrel) in a briefcase - believe me.

You're absolutely right. But that to me does not look like the full size barrel and I think that's what I cued on.

I think you're right - it doesn't look quite as long a barrel to me either.

Sheesh! If my memory was worth a darn I would have remembered this earlier. From the site:

"The Thompson submachine gun was replaced by the Uzi submachine gun in the 1970s. Uzis utilized by the Secret Service have the common characteristic of slightly shorter than standard barrels. This was due to the fact that the weapons had to be modified to fit inside standard size Samsonite briefcases used to conceal them. The Uzi was phased out in the mid 1990s and replaced by the H&K MP-5. The Secret Service was the last Federal agency to use the Uzi."

Just to be fair... once he made it over the fence he should have been able to live there now. Also he should get free health coverage and welfare benefits.

Congress is holding hearings on this today. They are grilling the Secret Service Director. Can't recall her name. Probably a barry appointee. I am glad they know what their priorities are.
