GSG-16 .22 LR Carbine with Threaded Barrel, Telescoping Stock & Red-Dot Optic
The German-made GSG-16 brings MP5-style handling to an affordable rimfire platform. Its polymer construction keeps weight down, while the blowback action and 22-round magazine offer low-cost, high-volume shooting. A factory-threaded steel barrel, ambidextrous controls, and an included red-dot optic make this carbine ready for range time the moment it arrives.

This GSG-16 retains the familiar HK-style slap-charging handle, now ambidextrous and user-swappable without tools. The four-position telescoping stock features an integral spare-magazine compartment and QD sling eyelets, supporting fast reloads and easy carry.
The 16.25-inch steel barrel hides beneath a removable aluminum shroud that mimics a suppressor while protecting the M9×1 threaded muzzle. Remove the shroud, add a rimfire suppressor or muzzle device, and the carbine is range-ready for quiet practice sessions.
Polymer M-LOK handguard slots let you mount lights, grips, or bipods without extra weight. Coupled with a matte black/graphite-gray finish and German proof marks, the carbine blends modern modularity with authentic markings.
Compatible with existing GSG-5 and 522 magazines, the GSG-16 keeps training costs low by feeding readily available .22 LR. The installed red-dot optic speeds target acquisition, while factory hooded front and aperture rear sights are included should you prefer iron sights.
