GSG STG-44 .22 LR Semi-Automatic Rifle | Full-Scale Rimfire Replica with Variable-Power Scope
This German-made GSG STG-44 brings the storied profile of the WWII Sturmgewehr 44 into a modern rimfire package. Built as a full-scale reproduction, it preserves the original weight, balance, and sight radius while chambering economical .22 LR. A 30 mm variable-power illuminated scope on a detachable side-rail mount, matte-black alloy receiver with stamped-style ribs, and post-2020 “B” prefix Blue Line import mark make this example stand out for shooters and collectors alike.

What’s Included
- 30 mm variable-power riflescope with external “RANGE YARDS ×100” turret and illuminated green crosshair (installed)
- Detachable STG-44 side-rail Picatinny scope mount (installed)
- One 24-round proprietary curved polymer .22 LR magazine
The STG-44 pattern ventilated handguard and fixed stock replicate wartime geometry, while the alloy receiver’s external ribs echo the stamped steel of the original. A hinged butt-trap compartment in the stock adds period-correct storage and keeps the 14 inch length of pull true to the design.
Internally, GSG’s simple blowback action delivers reliable rimfire cycling. A steel-liner barrel is cut to 16.5 inches to maintain legal length without altering the rifle’s authentic silhouette. Manual lever safety, hooded post front sight, and tangent rear sight adjustable for elevation remain in place for shooters who prefer classic irons.
Factory machining on the left receiver wall accepts the included side-rail Picatinny mount, allowing quick removal of the optic for period-style shooting or easy maintenance. The illuminated scope’s green crosshair and variable magnification add modern precision without permanent modification.
CIP “N” and German nitro-eagle proofs confirm compliance with current proof standards, and the Blue Line Solutions import mark with “B” serial prefix identifies this as a recent production run. Combined with a 24+1 capacity magazine and affordable .22 LR chambering, this replica offers practical range time while honoring a landmark rifle’s form.
