I'm guessing it's the same thing as the GSG-5? They sued American Tactical a while back and won which ceased production of the GSG-5.

If its made by umerx or however you spell it stay away.  They fucked up the colt licensed ar15 in .22 to the point that a running gag online was that it was a high end pooper scooper.  I had a chance to shoot one jam-o-matic.  I would pass and get the gsg-5

I THINK they may still made my German Sports Guns, now just branded officially with the HK name. Not sure.

The GSG-5 is  still made, just some minor changes on the gun to make HK happy.

Maybe those minor changes improved the gsg-5.  I had one last winter.  I owned it for a month before I couldn't take the jams, ftf, and fte issues. I traded it in and for only 50 extra dollars picked up and uncanted WASR-10/63. Goes boom every time, and ammo is really only a little more expensive.  You're really paying for the novelty of a gsg-5.  But in my book an AK is pretty novel.  Just my 2.

no, it clearly states umarex.. im looking at the ad as we speak. according to this, they only offer the collapsible stock and the large car SD style version.  Im going to guess that because its licensed by HK they are going to be pulling $600 a pop. lol no one will buy one with umarex's rep and that price tag with a GSG sitting next to it.

The GSG is still in production, they simply altered its appearance to comply with the lawsuit.
