It is known as simply '''Uzi''' in GTA III and Advance although it is named '''Micro SMG''' in all other GTAs that have it. In the GTA III rendition, the Micro Uzi holds a 25 rounds per magazine but in GTA San Andreas, GTA IV and GTA Chinatown Wars it holds 50 rounds instead. It's the only gun in GTA III available for use in a vehicle and one of the few on the later games. | ||
The GTA III version of the weapon features an orange tip on the muzzle, a feature usually reserved for toy weapons. This might imply that Claude may have disguised the weapon, that Ammunation paint the muzzles of its Micro Uzis before selling them, or that the weapon has been converted out of a toy. Since real life criminals often disguise their weapons by painting the muzzle orange, the former explanation might be the legitimate one. | The GTA III version of the weapon features an orange tip on the muzzle, a feature usually reserved for toy weapons.

The Micro-SMG can be purchased from the back-alley gun shops after the mission [[Do You Have Protection?]] for $1,200 and each additional magazine costs $100. It can be purchased from [[Little Jacob]] for $840 and each additional magazine will cost $20. The Uzi has minimal range and poor stopping power, but it has an extremely fast rate of fire and a 50 round magazine, making it the best weapon in the game for drive-bys or car chases because you can just spray without having to reload. | The Micro-SMG can be purchased from the back-alley gun shops after the mission [[Do You Have Protection?]] for $1,200 and each additional magazine costs $100.
