From Canada, seriously debating getting one of these when I can afford it. Then I can finally get back into target shooting. Something I seriously miss from my Army Cadet days...
Picked mine up last week. Love that the standard clip slides into the buttstock for extra shoulder stability and faster reloads. For fun I did buy the GSG 110 round drum and it's a blast. Cycled great shooting CCI
I love you're video straightforward no nonsense and your reviews always honest and some of the thing you say have put me in stitches keep up the great work
Very nice Rack especially seeing some of the plates you're chiming, except you're making me jealous, and did I hear a "yippee-kay-ayy" at one point? Well it is nearly time for Mr Willis and his essential Christmas movie. 🤣 That looks a sweet carbine, I assume that's a faux moderator on the business end? All you need now is a downrange target cam indoors and you're sorted. 👍🏻 Cheers. Russ
I like to shoot mine but I'm so frustrated that the magazine keeps double loading the ammo into the chamber, so I have to keep stopping every few shots. I wonder can the ruger magazine fit this gun.
GSG seemed to have solved their reliability issues. I am unsure whether I would ever buy again a GSG due to having a GSG MP5 for many years and it causing me enormous bother and trouble.
Hey man I just bought one of these online. Could you tell me what size rails are on there? I, trying to buy a optic and laser but can’t find any at all. Thank ya if you can!
I am tempted...sorely tempted.......I haven't been quite so tempted since I met my wife on a blind date.........not tempted by you of course Rack, although you are a fine figure of a man.......but tempted by that lovely looking little gun. Damn; checked with wife and all Christmas presents purchased. Never mind, my birthday's in May!!!
Finally got to see a southpaw shoot it. Lol. Right on. I am as well. Just ordered my GSG 16. Thanks for the review. Now a subscriber. Stay safe out there. 👍🖖😷
** Picked 1 up few months ago @$300 and no issues 😏 . .

Look up how to field strip a GSG5 and you'll be on the right path, it will involve 2 flat head screwdrivers to take out the pins (which can be replaced by HK pushpins or steel MP5 airsoft replica pushpins) and an allen key or torx (cant remember which!) The stock has to come off and the trigger group dropped out to get the bolt carrier out. It's more complicated than an AR or Sig 522 thats a fact. Try not to slap the charging handle too many times, just release it nicely lol!
@@connor2dap884 dude, it’s not that bad. If it takes you more than a minute to field strip it you don’t deserve to own tools or guns. Not AR easy, but also trivially more difficult.
@@nunyabusiness896 have you took this gun apart ? it takes more than a minute to dissemble as it is i like it i even ended up buying one, but they are a pain to clean any gun that requires a screw driver to take apart is gonna usually take more than a minute to fully dissemble... I dont really know why someone doesn't deserves guns if it takes them more than a minute seems kind of silly to say but you have a good day
@@racknload question you may be able to help me with... Having bought the gsg16 I believe it has 22mm picatinny rails.... Ive noticed nearly all accessories I want on amazon etc quote "suitable for 20mm". 22mm rarely ever mentioned... In your experience are these add ons usually ok for 22mm
My 22s are loud af at the indoor range, its just the way the range is built. Years of being a musician, I learned from other peoples mistakes, always protect your ears.
Just picked up one of them. It’s a great rifle thus far, no problems, fun n cheap to shoot

These guns sell out QUICK online. Finding one in conjunction with my pay schedule took me nearly 6 months to catch an order.

Nice!! >>>where & how much for the drum??

@@shanestorto5077 I bought mine at my local gun dealer, cost $70 bucks and worth every penny
@@shanestorto5077 I ordered one off of guns 2 Ammo for $61
It takes the same mags as the old GSG5 / GSG522 which is a bonus.
This really helps me because I am a lefty.
Just received mine today in FDE. They should have a 17 HMR and/or 22 WMR version as well.
Agreed
I love you're video straightforward no nonsense and your reviews always honest and some of the thing you say have put me in stitches keep up the great work
Cheers buddy! Have a great Christmas! Atb, Rack.
So three years later about that aim point, did you leave it on?
You are a lefty so change the charging to the other side, you won’t be so gimpy when you get a battery problem.
I just brought one today and I'm a lefty what you mean the charging? That's the load slide you talking about?
@@SelfmadeCCCEO yup charging handle it's ambidextrous you can swap the handle
I just watched this and was about to say the same thing , funny how people just go buy a firearm and don't do any homework on them at all lol.
Review gun on loan for me...
That's an awesome optic! Probably costs more than the gun itself! 😆
Great vid as usual. You need your shooting gloves outside in this weather. All the best from lancashire.
And you buddy! Merry Christmas!

Is the crown on the end of the barrel ok? Looks uneven on the opening of your video.
It's carbon...
@@racknload I just purchased one but in tactical tan, can't wait to mount and sight in the scope.

Doesn't sound like a mag issue. Overloading or certain ammo will cause that. 😊
Nice vid, thanks for posting. Seemed to run pretty much flawlessly. Did you experience any feed problem other than what was on the vid?

Thats not what i want to hear having just bought one. Im going to pick up tomorrow fingers crossed.
@@woh-quijhin7991 Good luck with it anyway. Just make sure you clean it every 200-300 rounds.
Great Video ! What riser and sight are you using ?
Hey man I just bought one of these online. Could you tell me what size rails are on there? I, trying to buy a optic and laser but can’t find any at all. Thank ya if you can!
It is a standard picatinny rail buddy...

SK Standards..

🤣🤣🤣
What was the longest distance in the range, was it 50 or 100 yards at bulls eye? thanks
Ringing the dinner bell. Great looking gun.
How much in the UK?
Around £450...
@@racknload oh, not a bad price. Have a great Christmas Rack.
You guys can buy this in the uk ?
@@dimicole963 yes
I liked the sp5 furniture in Die Hard more than the pic rails.
my gsg16 came yesterday !!!!

What optics are you using on yours? I’m having fun and good results with the o ring standard but am looking to upgrade for longer range accuracy.
What is the optic you have on there?
Aimpoint Acro C-1
RACKNLOAD thanks
$600 RD on a $300 gun doesn't seem right....especially a 22 but to each his own. 😊

- Great 👍 Video 📹 👏!
I see you shoulder on the left. Are you left handed or cross-eye dominant?
Left handed and left eye dominant also...
@@racknload I see. I'm right handed but left eyed.
Looks like fun thinking of getting one
I know this gun uses a 22 round magazine but it can fit 25, anyone have any experience with that? Do the magazines wear out faster? Thanks
You can try 25 rds but you may get a double feed.... To much tension on the spring. 😁
Love this gun
Hey Rack, great vid, would you not be better off swapping the charging handle to the right hand side, you being kack...(I mean left handed?) 😁
True enough buddy! I should have....
Can you swap the bolt to the other side?
Yes you can but for some reason he didn't.... Maybe it's more comfortable for him 😉🙃
You been down double deuce without me again? No cuppa tea for you mister.
Sorry boss man!
Nice plinker!
You know you can move the charging handle right?
I was thinking the same.... 🤔
What sight is that
It's the new Aimpoint Acro C-1, the smallest red dot on the market...
Nice 👍🏼👏
Awesome. Like. :D
I have the tan version
Lucky.

Good luck finding one of these. Can anyone link me to a 110 round drum before the socialist inauguration?

Just ordered one from Guns 2 Ammo for $61....and my local Dunhams always has these GSG-16 in stock.
Wearing ear protection for a .22? Pu
Yeah! Using HV rounds plus other shooters nearby shooting centerfire and shotgun...
