hey how do i close the breech with a empty mag
\i prefer storing it with the breech closed so crap won,t fall inside

i got it by putting a round in and cocking half way to slip out the round and put in the red dohickey then letting the tube go,but there got to be a better way.

rather not put ammo in it in the house

Pull the mag out, pull all the way back on the charging handle let go and the bolt will come forward with it. Reinsert mag. Store away.

Hum... You may have a collectable there..... I don't think these were suppsed to be in the USA. RUN FOREST.... RUN.

Actually there were a few that I did see here in the states that did have the same markings, my personal gun doesn't. Why some do and others don't is beyond me.

I've noticed (from pics on this forum) that (all?) the GSG5P's have those export/proof markings. Maybe GSG started sending their rifles to that proof house at the same time they started selling the pistols. Why the AH is on there i have no idea - that is an HK date code....

Ya they are probably using the same date code spec. Maybe going by whatever their company fiscal is. The other guy has AI so I am guessing it would be 2009 fiscal.
