UO Arms Opens Orders on the NT7: A US-Built Civilian MP7 in 4.6x30mm

The MP7 has been the platform American civilians could only watch from across the pond — and a Dallas-based up-and-comer is doing something about it. UO Arms, a specialty manufacturer led by CEO Steven Young and founded by security, military, and industry veterans, has opened orders on the NT7, a US-built, MP7-style semi-automatic in 4.6x30mm. Orders placed now are slated for delivery in Q4 2026.

The price of admission: $3,499 for the pistol and $3,798 for the factory SBR, with an optional HUXWRX flow-through suppressor at $999.95. Four color options, 10/20/30/40-round magazine choices, 3.6 pounds, and 23 inches with the stock extended round out the package.

The lineage is real: the NT7 is reengineered from the Tommybuilt T7 platform, with Tom Bostic transitioning Tommy Built into UO Arms. And unlike most specialty firearm makers, this one is funded to scale — a senior secured loan from Rochefort Asset Management (Kyle Bass) closed in January 2026, a rare capital backstop in a segment where that almost never happens. The company positions the NT7 for both civilian buyers and military and law-enforcement users.

This is exactly the story FreedomWire exists to cover: a small American manufacturer with real engineering pedigree and real backing taking a swing at the most-wanted platform in its class. Watch this one.
