But whining about one little overpriced mp5-alike 22lr poser rifle on 118 pages that is not normal.
This thread would be a lot shorter if negative people, like you, didn't waste electrons posting here. Do us all a favour, especially since you don't want one or care for it, and make your post above your last. We don't need to hear it.

I don't know why you have issues with this rifle, but to even suggest that so many people are "what should I call it" because they want what you consider "this little mp5 poser rifle" is downright idiotic.
x2. Dumb comments again by 22lr.

Get real 22lr.

ok folks, let me get serious for a minute. I usually get a good kick out of seing this thread on top again but this time I feel really sorry for all who genuinely want this rifle on the market in Canada.

Try understanding motives that drive RCMP and politicians to ban all cool looking firearms. This is because of their LCF, sure, people who buys them aren't really after shooting grouse or rabbits. It is for impersonating whatever it is you think you are when you have MP5 in your hands. Risks of someone making another scene in another school someday are higher with those firearms on the market.

Cosmetic resemblance is everything for buyers and thats exactly reason mounties want to ban them. The more you want it, the more you fight for it, the less chances you will ever get it. Walk away from it, say "its just another 22, and not a very good one" and all of a sudden it will be not a big deal anymore.

Consider this - what is the most probable market for MP5-ish expensive 22 rifle? It is young individual, not too smart, not after honing his shooting skills, the one who never after target competitions. High on hormones and slightly hyper hothead. Once that pussy break up with his girlsfriend first thing he will do is pull his gun. Now here is somehting you will be surprised to hear - he will pull his gun BECAUSE it is cool and it looks like MP5 and he saw it in the movies.


Dumbest post... EVER!!

First of all, I apologize for bumping this thread. If I could post my thoughts without bumping it, I would.

Secondly... Holy ####. This thread was more painful to read than the Grizzly MAG thread.

*Sigh*

As depressing as this whole situation currently is, I think it can be turned into an excellent opportunity for the sport.

As previously stated, if the RCMP were to re-classify the GSG-5, it would bring into question a lot of other firearm prohibitions. IMHO, that's all the more reason to push this case as hard as we can. Sure, lawyers cost a lot, but there are a LOT of people interested in this gun alone, not to mention all the others this case would apply to. It wouldn't be the first time firearm enthusiasts did fund-raisers in Canada.

If you feel like discussing the subject, PLEASE make another thread specifically for the conversation and post a link in this thread. I'm just putting this post here to get the attention from those who subscribed to it.

Again, sorry for bumping this monstrosity of a thread.
 
It is a good thought.

But.................

Your line right here (As previously stated, if the RCMP were to re-classify the GSG-5, it would bring into question a lot of other firearm prohibitions.) would cause such a hornets nest that it wouldn't fly. The classification guys never make a mistake.

Anti gun politico types would get involved. No way would we be allowed to have MORE guns.

My thought on how things would go.........:mad:
 
Wow!!!

HOLY SH*T I just saw that this thread has been bumped!!!
Does this mean it's almost here!!!:D
Sorry very little sleep and I feel like being funny:redface:
 
Ok.

Seriously.

I'm done. I think that the number of pages and posts on this subject has gone insane.

I'm locking it....only because there's nothing useful here anymore.

If someone really wants it re-opened, PM me and I'll do it, but tell me why!

If the GSG-5 gets approved, I'm pretty sure a new thread will be started on that subject rather than using this one....so....someone with REAL news on the GSG-5, please step up and start a new thread.
