Yeah i used the Shottie, then the Uzi now the shottie again. Uzi is real simple, all u need to do is keep firing, it may seem like ur hittin nothing but trust me, youll kill them. just strafe and keep firing.

a shotgun can be an instant kill in one shot. but the shotguns reload time can mean Death. the Uzi allows you to lay down constant fire on you target. BUt unless you are really good with the uzi you will almost always have to reload your uzi after a fight, leaving you vulnerable.  If you had a shotgun, you can hop around and get in a couple fights without having to reload

Uzzi also has the fastest reload time

I've now started only using the Uzi at extremely close range, and that's helping a bit.

It is good to leap put of corners and surprise opponents.

So, guess it’s just a case of more practice needed.

This morning I was defending the flag on PRAG 2 a beautiful map if I may add, and I used a sniper rifle to pick off the in coming hoards, if not dead, defiantly softened and at closer ranges finished them off with bursts off death from the UZI. The sheer rapid sound off the Uzi does throw off a enemies aim and concentration. I have been getting tired of the slow rate of fire of the pump shotty, and have swapped my secondary weapon to the Uzi. I find that there is less tks and bursts to the head are more deadly as well as the range shooting is effective.
I think it has one of the best ranges for a secondary weapon.  I get thrown off by all those little thuds from Uzi when a Uzi master kills me and man it’s like being stung by a swarm of wasps, I can only guess how it will throw off others, especially if they do not know where they are being shot from.  I hope to see more Uzi users as is does create a cat and mouse gun fight which is always fun.
