Yesterday we looked at the development and mechanics of the UC-9 folding sneaky submachine gun. Today we are out at the range with it – how does this thing actually handle? Well, actually better than I expected. The laser is a pretty terrible main sighting system, but the gun itself shoots smoothly and rather controllably, and isn’t unduly awkward. It’s not really practical for anything other than feeling like James Bond though, as there are now other concealable weapons for things like VIP protection that are equally small without the other downsides of the UC-9.

Why am I not getting the videos anymore???
Same here. If you cut and paste the non clickable link it takes you to some obscure video totally unrelated. I’ve tried it a few times now. Just go to ForgottenWeapons YouTube channel to watch it. Not sure why the change.
Must be ads again.
I don’t use YouTube on principle. If Ian doesn’t put the videos on his own site, he’s lost a viewer.
at least there is not a pay wall … just wait
