    I'm still o the fence about these rifles
    Had it out to the range, overall impression is it is a very reliable rifle. The magazine takes a bit of effort to seat but that might break in later on. Mini Mags worked perfect (around 80 rounds), Blazer I had one fail to feed (50 rounds), and the 333 had two fail to fire with a good primer strike.

    Go out and get one. Western Metal shipped on a Monday and had it on the Friday.

    12 yards off hand, supplied folding sights.

    So other then the cheap ammo not igniting from primer strikes no other really concerns or issues??

    No other concerns. The folding stock is adjustable in length, folds and unfolds easily to make a very compact package. The cheek riser works well, overall the stock is well designed. The stock sights had to be adjusted slightly, the front sight had to go down a turn (they supply a sight adjusting tool), and the rear sight tweaked a tiny bit. I'm going to put a red dot on it for the next trip. As for the target I posted, it was just a big red dot in the middle of a letter sized sheet of paper, and I didn't take my time to put holes in it. I had the rear sight back as far as it would go and used the peep sight (there is also a notch on top to use it as a normal rear sight if you move it forward on the rifle). The rails look solid and straight so mounting optics should not be a problem.

    Use good ammo and you should get good results. I did a couple of mags filled to capacity and there were no issues. Just make sure you load the rounds correctly, same as the STG 44 version.

    I did a second trip with a friend who hasn't shot in years. He was very comfortable with it and did very well.

    In the folded configuration is is almost backpack sized.

    Glad to see a postive review. I had an ISSC...it was a massive piece of unreliable garbage.

    If this GSG model functions reliably I may well add one to my stable of fun for the cottage guns.

    Is it possible to pick up instead of shipping?

    Edit: Never mind just read off your website FAQ that is a big fat no.

    Go to the "Data Sheets" on our webstore for the GSG15's.
