Well, it is absolutely wrong name of the thread. Correct name is "Czech ZK-476 and ČZ Sa 23/25 and their derrivates around the world"...
Well UZI is only illegal derivate of the Czech submachine guns from the end of the 1940s in short.
At the end of the 1940s, the Czechoslovak army announced a tender for a new submachine gun.
Two types were selected for the tests - Zbrojovka Brno ZK-476 and Česká zbrojovka Stranonice ČZ vz. 48. At that time, there was a secret operation Důvěrné Izrael (Izrael Confidential), in which Czechoslovakia imported weapons to Israel and Israeli soldiers and pilots were trained in Czechoslovakia. Israeli experts also visited Czech armories and got acquainted with, among other things, the projects of new Czech submachine guns. In the Czechoslovak Army tender won vz. 48 (later given the designation Sa 23/25 and after adaptation for Russian ammunition were produced as Sa 24/26). After the communist coup in Czechoslovakia in 1948, the Czechoslovak army switched to Russian ammunition, and therefore the Czechoslovakia, among other weapons, delivered to Israel Sa 23/25 in the original Czech caliber because the machine guns were not compatible with the Russian standard. In addition, sometime in 1949, Israel requested for documentation and a license to produce the ZK-476, which was rejected because Israel was already oriented to the west. The result was that Israel illegally copied the design of ZK-476 and vz. 48a/b submachine guns and UZI was born...
