UZIUZI

The Uzi is one of the most recognisable submachine guns in the world, developed in the 1950s by Uziel Gal for the newly formed Israel Defense Forces. Compact, simple and incredibly reliable, it became famous for its open-bolt design, fast rate of fire and tough stamped-steel construction. Its small size made it perfect for vehicle crews, paratroopers and special units who needed serious firepower in tight spaces. Adopted by dozens of countries and seen in countless movies, the Uzi became a global symbol of close-quarters firepower and remains a favourite for shooters thanks to its controllable recoil and iconic silhouette. Firing an Uzi at Churchill Shooting Budapest feels exactly like stepping into an action movie — an energetic, unforgettable daytime activity in Budapest and a top choice for visitors looking for exciting things to do in the city. If you want a true piece of cinematic history that’s fun, fast and famous, the Uzi is a must-try.

Its unmistakable shape turned it into the original “movie SMG.”
