I know a thing or two about guns, trust me the GSG-5 is a real gun, just read the wiki.

Unit cost  €549
Fires a .22 Rifle Cartridge (That is a real bullet, I can give you a picture of one that I have sitting in my basement, I own a .22 rifle and it uses .22 Long Rifle shells)

Just because someone has made an airsoft gun that looks like the GSG-5 means nothing, if you go by that logic that means that AK-47's, M16's, and a whole other host of guns aren't real weapons, yet they kill every day.

Here is something that proves it right away, it's a Rimfire Rifle, meaning that the firing pin hits the rim of the cartridge to start the chemical reaction that burns the black power to push the bullet forward and the spent shell out of the gun. You don't use black powder in an air rifle.



Hunting is legal and guns assist with jobs as well, killing isn't illegal in war.

Shooting at targets isn't illegal either, people do it for a hobby.


Now I'm going to try and stop arguing, I know it is a real gun, the one in the picture may not be but it is possible that it is.


THIS. This guy knows what he is talking about. And as far as it being a GSG-5 I think that can be debated. A tricked out MP5 could resemble that. LOL GSG-5 sorry didnt check side mark :P

Yes. You would be correct. They enlongate it for extra accuracy at longer ranges. The MP5 is way more close counter. However this little beauty comes equipped the front hand stock so yeah it's pretty much love at first sight.

wow i don't understand why it's such a big deal to you

i enjoy taking pictures of them because i see beauty in them.

and yes they are both real. Like Kratos said, the GSG is a rimfire rifle, even with the inflated gun prices nowadays, i purchased it for less than $800.

the pistol is a Kimber 1911 Custom TLE II in .45 which was $1400

i'm not here to try and start a flame war but gun killing people is just your opinion, "wasting" money again is your opinion.

The Kimber 1911 is one of the finest competition shooting guns that was ever devised.

Sorry, just my opinions. It looked like an air soft to me.


Guns kill people.
People killing people makes a war.
War causes lots of death, and destroyed cultures, races, mankind.


I think of it as a natural cycle of life. People aren't going to get along, there are ones that will kill and there are ones that will just leave it be. And then there are ones that will fight.

So you agree to war that it's natural? Wow...
Billions of tax dollars down the drain each year to kill people.

Whatever, this thread is prob. going to get closed due to the nature of it.
And due to the off 'topicness' which I apologize for.

I am not saying I think it's right nor do I agree with it. Just look around, war has been here forever.... it's not going to change and it will always be there. It is my opinion. You don't have to get the thread closed, just have a mature discussion and it should not get closed.

Not been here forever.
Between the last world war and 9/11, there wasn't much.
