I bought a new rifle today a .22 cal. its called a GSG-5 and is made to look like a suppressed MP-5 it has a 24 round mag with 1 in the pipe I only got to run 1 mag thru it today but it shoots very nice.Trouble is its the only one i have seen and my dealer can't tell me much about it . Can anyone tell me about it ?.....extra clip - sling...Randy

It's imported by American Tactical. I know of them but not anything about them. I will check with the research department on Monday and see what they come up with.

I never actually seen one, I think the numbers imported into Canada are very few if any. I do know cause its not a "variant" of the MP5 as being a 22LR its a completely different operating system, its the closest thing to a MP5 a Canadian is allowed to own. Smile

That is ofcourse unless they are a lucky SOB and has the appropriate 12(x) grandfathered license because they owned weapons that were prohibited by name before the "ban". I was too young to legally own guns nevermind get grandfathered when they did this. Sad

Grizzly48, a buddy saw one of those someplace and has been trying to buy one ever since. He thought it looked like good quality.

Well as of 1pm its still raining and the shooting range is 20 miles from my home I did the next best thing , I went out on my rear deck and popped off a mag full ( in the pouring rain and of course scaring most of the neighborhood , at least those who were not already scared of me ) it shot great no hicups at all just a lot of water on it and me . I guess you can say I baptisted it by fire and water ?.........Randy

You "popped off a mag full " from your rear deck????? wtf

Mate, I hope you don't live in a residential neighbourhood !!!!! One would hope that you have a number of acres off your rear deck.

Cheers, Vince

Yes I live in the country at the end of a cul de sac , I have a small range set up about 20 yards where I can test fire the guns I work on. I try not to use it much so I don't have to listen to the neighbors ( which live about a 1/4 mile away. I use our public range for most of my shooting...Randy
