GSG-5 Rifle, MP5 Clone in 22LR, with 22 Round Magazine, 16.25" Barrel, Black Finish
by: SP, Loyal Customer
Truly exceptionial practice rifle. Very accurate. Beware you''ll draw a crowd at the range. Only one jam (ammo failure)in the first 300 rounds but it cleared quickly. Accessories are a little scarce but that will change. Buy it you won''t regret it.

GSG-5 Rifle, MP5 Clone in 22LR, with 22 Round Magazine, 16.25" Barrel, Black Finish
by: KR, Loyal Customer
After a Long and Patient wait {NOT Caused by TGSCOM} I received my CSG-5.
To use their words as a description: The new GSG-5 .22 caliber semi-auto rifle from American Tactical Imports is an exact replica of H&K MP5 sub-machine-gun aside from the caliber. Ergonomics and handling are identical to that of the MP5 with an overall length of 33.5” and a weight of 6.6 pounds.
I must say, it''s on the money! I carried an MP-5 for 10 years in the service and have been on a quest to collect one of every firearm I served with. After researching all options and finding an HK94 {Civilian 9mm version of the MP5} to be priced way out of my retirement pay. I came across the GSG 5 and, with reservations, purchased one.
I have to give it high marks! True German craftsmanship! Balance and feel are MP5, with even less recoil, if you can believe that!
Range Time: the GSG5 delivers {within the parameters of.22LR}! At 25 yds. and after a couple of "sighter''s" I managed to fire a whole magazine, fast as I could pull the trigger, at a type E silhouette, resulting in one ragged 3 inch hole! Double-taps with one to the head, while moving in on the target, resulted in much the same; two ragged holes! And I am very much out of practice! I''m impressed. It has that "unconscience" feel of an MP!
I experienced no malfunctions however it does exhibit a preference for the higher velocity .22 LR brands {i.e. Stingers}. Lesser brands caused no malfunctions in the weapon but lacked in the accuracy dept.
My only criticism would be: Something feels "funny" about the placement and rotation of the selector lever. I can''t quite settle on the problem.
So, if you are like me and have the fever for an MP5 but can''t find, afford or otherwise acquire one, I recommend the GSG5!
This is my gun and my opinion. Your results may vary. But I don''t think you will be disappointed!

GSG 5
by: Bobalou
I saw a guy holding one at a gunshop 15 feet away and thought it was a real HK after previously owning an HK 91 and folding stock 94. I looked it over carefully immediately objecting to the open side 22 round box magazine(thought they did away with those after Henry rifle dirty magazine tube spring problems appeared in 1860's). I negotiated an out the door deal for $500 bucks including 1 extra magazine and told the dealer I'd think it over(he received 5 guns that morning, immediately sold one to a state trooper and had 4 left that afternoon. Next morning I decided to buy after reading reviews and learned dealer had only 1 left! Snatching the last gun I loaded up some Wally World Federal milk carton hollowpoints to give it a go . Gun worked fine and recalling some user complaints of jams while holding magazine as a forward grip or even monopod on a rest,tried that and it still functioned fine. Rear sight is iffy but I managed open sight hits offhand on 50 cent sized steel plate spinner at 80 yards.

GSG 5
by: spikey614
I purchsaed mine about a month ago and only test fired it at the store/range. (1 gun a month thing ) I picked it up today and put a 550rd box Winchester 22 ammo through it without one hick up. I didn't go for groups because it is too much fun shooting it fast. I'll check out groups later.
Since you folks here do not have any mags in stock or other accessories. Thats why I gave it a 4. I guess I'll search the web for more.
WAY COOL & BIG FUN, Money well spent IMO

Totally Impressed So Far...
by: Kev
Picked up one in Seattle today to take it shooting with the guys. Everyone was impressed. All my buddies have ARs and this was the gun they wanted to play with. Just used the basic stuff today, but plan to put some subsonics through it later this weekend. Did have one FTE, but I'm pretty sure he was holding the mag, which everyone says not to. I checked out the folding stock, but passed and stuck with the basic one. I did by the optics rail, and I'll probably put a red dot on there in the next month or so. Loving it so far. I'll post again after a thousand rounds.

GSG5P SBR Suppressed
by: Class3-4-ME
I picked up a GSG5-P and promptly sent in a form 1. When the stamp came back I added a Classic Army metal retractable stock and There brugger and thommet clone tri rail forend. then shortened the barrel threaded it 1/2-28 and added my Yankee hill machine 22 wraith suppressor. it runs beautifully with cci subsonic and all other standard velocity ammo. It is almost as much fun as my Real MP5SD. if it had rock and roll and burst I would be in heaven!!!!!!

Still selling like crazy
by: JDW45acp
Local gun shop in Oklahoma finally called a couple of weeks ago and said...you GSG has arrived. Took it home read the manual, cleaned it and shot 500 rounds the next day (cci mini mags). Perfect, not one FTF or FTE! Pretty good for any semi auto! Last week I put my EoTech on it and as fast as I could pull the trigger at 15 & 35 yards all rounds were inside a 5 1/2"
Shoot&see target....that is toooo coool! Love it.

GSG-5 / :-D
by: roughrider/spokane
I just purchased mine at a local indoor range, they gave me a free day pass because of my purchase,so I promptly bought 100 rounds of the cheap stuff and a target and gave this new micro-GATzilla a whirl. Out of a hundred rounds,it jammed four times(possibly the cheap ammo),but maintained an amazingly tight group(I should take this thing to the next carnival red star-shoot,I will walk out with all the stuffed animals). I have owned HK 91,94, and 93s over the years and this just fits right in with them,,,just wish the parts would innerchange,,,other than that,,,OUTSTANDING!!

GSG-5
by: Jeff
I love this gun for its reliability and accuracy, It holds a tight group a 200 yds on CCI stinger ammo. I just did its first cleaning at 2000 rds and found out it was easy to disassemble and reassemble. I hope GSG comes out with other great replicas.

GSG-5 Rifle
by: Suspect
I just had my New GSG-5 for about month so far I am very happy with it. I fired four different types of rounds out of it with no issues at all. This weapon worked 100 % without any miss-fires or jams. I would buy this again with out thinking about it.

GSG-5
by: Col P
Very handy for training in confined spaces since the 22LR requires less Kevlar on walls of cargo containers used to make up mock situation sets. Excellent training weapon for those who use the MP5. Of twenty in use, three had magazine issues after use in the heat due to warpage, since there is nothing holding the magazine together in the centre. Once the magazine issues are corrected we would give this product five stars.

magazine
by: x
I'd just like to say the 22 round limit is a design feux paux..8 rounds short of the most common hi cap amount in the world not to mention the original gun. I'd want to mod a 10/22 or Rem. 597 30 rounder to fit...

GSG5
by: Tons of fun
Just got mine...after a long wait. Bought a extra mag and 200 rounds of cci mini mags. Perect. no fiss feeds or jams! Can't wait for my sliding stock, picatinny rail,scope mount, and mag coupler. Great addition to my collection!

Great Gun
by: Curt
I just back from the range with my new GSG-5. I fired 200 rounds of CCI Mini-Mag High Velocity ammo, and this weapon worked 100 % of the time. No miss-fires or jams, and it held a nice tight groop at 50 feet. As a Police Officer with a lot of trigger time behind a H&K MP-5, I think the GSG-5 is as much fun to shoot...and a lot cheaper. The 200 rouns of CCI ammo cost $ 11.00. No way you can fire 200 rounds of 9mm for eleven bucks....
The only thing I don't like about the GSG-5 is the rear stock. the plastic is not very solid, but I see there are several after market stocks that look stout. The price of the gun was $ 469.00 plus tax, a little high for a 22.
Over all I love my new GSG-5 and can tell it will bring me several years of fun and cheep shooting. Guess I need to save up for a few extra mags and a folding stock.

perm attached fake supressor is lame
by: spike
If they had forgot the permanantly attached fake supressor to meet the 16" barrel length requirement, and used a real, (slimmer), real 16" barrel, I would have bought a couple. For the wannabes, they still could have offered a slip-on fake.

omg
by: mroovka
This is the most fun for the price. Also, I might add that there are ways of triking it out. It does void the warranty but, I dont care it looks cool as F8&$. I had put the retractible stock, the rail hand gaurd with the tactical light, and laser. Ohh yes boy and girls but i do warn you you will put in a about 4 hrs getting it fitted. Had 3-4 jams but what can you do. hint for the trick the AIR is so SOFT on the .COM companies. what you do is what you do with this just play safe.

GSG-5 just like the MP5 SD
by: CCW fan
I carried and qualified with the MP-5 SD in 9mm for many years, and it was a wonderful weapon to fire. I first bought an M-4, and got the .22 conversion kit to fire inexpensive ammo in it. Didn't work all that well. Now, with the GSG-5, we can have the fun of shooting the MP-5 without it costing an arm and a leg. Sure, we don't have the full-auto and 3-shot burst that the real MP-5 had, but this has everything else. The weapon was quite accurate right of the box, and functioned flawlessly with both standard Remington and Winchester high-velocity .22 ammo as well as Stingers and Winchester Super-X .22s.
It was well worth the 3 month wait, and for a fun, functional .22 that looks awesome, it can't be beat.

GSG 5 Rocks
by: CT
I went into the gun store to look at trap shooting guns,saw the GSG5 and thought it was an MP 5 HK asked the guy to look at it and realized it was a .22 and thought this is cool,paid almost 600 for it(didnt know they were only supposed to cost around 500) took it immediately to the range and fired 500 rounds flawlessley through it,this is an awsome little gun,it is like the Honda S2000 of guns,high quality,great performance,reasonable price,even at the higher price i paid.i will repeat what everyone else said,dont grab it by the mag,and the stocks are kind of cheapish,not a deal breaker but definitely room for improvement.

Most fun you can have with a .22
by: Powderburn Jackson
I have had mine for a month and a half and it holds the position of "Coolest gun in my collection". It feeds EVERYTHING you put in it, regardless of brand or speed, as long as you don't hold the magazine while firing. I've put at least 2000 rounds through it without any more cleaning than a bore snake 2 or 3 times and I've only had 6 failures, 2 of which were the ammo. Every single person who has fired it loves it and wants one. I bought a claw mount and put a red dot on top and it gives my perfectly acceptable groups at 25 yards, though grouping becomes less important once you see how much fun the rapid fire can be. I can get 12 rounds off before the first shell casing hits the ground. Too much fun!!! Any cons? Yes, but they are minor- Rear sight screw needs locktite or it will shoot loose. Contrary to some reports the GSG-5 IS NOT an exact clone of the MP-5, though scope mounts will interchange and stocks and fore-ends will interchange also with some slight modification. That brings me to the only real complaint: The stocks are plastic, not choate or some other polymer, and as such they are not battle proof. Solution? Treat the gun more gently than you would a battle rifle and/or replace the stocks with the real thing, especially the rear stock which does allow for some play. That's it for the downsides. Overall: Fantastic, affordable to own and shoot, cool-looking (even the fake can looks real), well made rifle. Buy one today while you still can!

GSG-5
by: Mo28
I Just got The GSG-5 and all I can say is wow. I knew this rifle would be fun but I did not expect such trills. Right out of the box this weapon shot 1 1/2 inch groups at 12 to 25 yard. I can't wait to put my red dot on it. The weapon is also simple to operate. The manuel answers all your questons. I have an M-4 but with the price of gas and ammo I can't afford to shoot it much. But with this 22 it's cheap and a blast. I shot 200 rounds with no jams no problems. Only wish it came with two magazines. Please read the manuel as far as cleaning and breaking down the weapon goes. Trust me This rifle will not disapoint.

gsg -5
by: Divintacks
Great gun 4 moa I.E. 1.2" @ 25 yards. Wish I could find extras. As fast as you can pull the trigger it places rounds. For a thin walled barrel very good. I shot only mini mags rhrough it at first. I then put 400 rds of American Eagle crap down range with out malfunction. Don't grab or rest the rifle on the mag, or a problem will show up. Lots of fun eould be ok taking this one into the woods.

GSG 5
by: EDDIE
BOUGHT ONE ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO AND LOVE IT. I HAVE HAD A FEW BULLETS NOT EJECT FROM THE GUN, BUT IT IS PROBABLY DUE TO THE FACT THAT I HAVE ONLY SHOT THE CHEAPEST ROUNDS I CAN FIND THROUGH IT. I SHOOT THE 550 ROUND BOX OF FEDERAL THAT I GET FROM WAL-MART. MY WIFE ALSO LOVES SHOOTING IT, IT IS EASY FOR HER TO HANDLE AND SHE IS A SMALL FRAMED WOMAN (5FT 2IN, 110 LBS +/-). OVERALL, IT IS INEXPENSIVE FUN.

GSG5 rifle
by: rapidfire roscoe
I saw a guy and his kids out at the range a few weeks ago with one of these and they were having a blast even in the cold. They let me shoot 3 magazines through it and I was impressed. They didn't seem to have any problems with the gun but some of their rounds were duds. But it fired 60 rds for me without a hitch and their ammo looked pretty old and was a mix of different brands. It handled like a real H&K 94 I shot once. Got one on order right now. Can't wait to take my boys plinking with it. -------rr
