Gallifreyan Gunner

I've had my GSG-16 for just about a year now and I thought I'd do a quick update on how it's functioning and how to do cosmetic upgrades to make it more MP5 and less MP5ish.

Following up on my previous "first impressions" video with a trip to my local range. Clips show the rifle action - warts and all.

The GSG-16 is a .22 LR rifle built in Germany by German Sports Guns Gmbh and distributed in Canada by Blue Line Solutions. It's based on a previous model, the GSG-5 which, itself, was based on a H&K MP5 submachine gun. GSG found themselves sued by H&K over "trade dress" so they went back and altered the appearance of the rifle just enough to avoid being sued. That redesigned rifle is the GSG-16. This video is just a quick look at the rifle and my first impressions until I can take it to the range.

The Maple Ridge Armoury Renegade receiver kit allows you to convert your AR to a manually operated, straight pull, bolt action rifle - that's non-restricted!

After getting pushback from the public and the opposition parties, the Liberal government decided to withdraw their controversial, eleventh hour amendments to what was, for the most part, a handgun freeze. But the fight isn't over...
