They also sell a conversion kit to revert it back to the older GSG/HK style. I know the sights are different, the lower receiver, added a rail on top, etc. Where might these conversion kits be sold? |

CDNN has them for $18, not sure on the shipping tho. Or Ebay has them for almost $70 shipped. I highly doubt CDNN will charge $50 shipping so I'd suggest that route. It won't look 100% like the original GSG's but it'll be close.
Here is the link to the full 18 piece kit on CDNN... http://www.cdnninvestments.com/gs18cokitnew.html |

Got a few of my mods in the mail. Still waiting on my gsg5 retro fit, but for now....
http://www.thejessemontana.com/3mod.jpg -SD front sling loop -A4 charging handle -Crayon mod logo -Dual Mag Clamp -NCStar Mark III 2-7 Red/Green Illuminated Mil-Dot Scope -GSG Advanced Folding Stock w/ 4 pos extension/ 3 pos adjustable cheekpiece/ Ambi Sling Loop -3 Point Wide Tac Sling *Still waiting to install* -Full Retro Conversion kit -Hogue pistol grip The GSG Advanced folding stock is awesome. It is solid, comfortable, ZERO wiggle, and folds to fit in a tac bag. I highly recommend it for anyone who feels the original is too short. On a side note, good luck finding one online, as I believe I literally bought the last one on the internet! The only GSG version I could find, was for sale at full retail from HKParts.com, so I got it, and when i looked again, they were out of stock, as is everyone else. They are 100% worth the wait though. http://www.thejessemontana.com/5mod.jpg Heres a pic of my arsenal... From L to R CIA CETME .308 with OD furniture, Bipod, 50 mm Barska red dot, claw mount and 3 point tac sling. RUGER SP101 GSG-522SD mentioned above SPRINGFIELD ARMORY XD-9 SubCompact in OD Green MOSSY 500 Persuader with Choate front pistol grip forend/ Choate Top folding stock and 5 shot stock mounted side saddle ICS mp5 A4 with all the bells and whussles... |

I found this new GSG-5SD collecting dust at a local shop. Brand new, never fired. I"ve done several mods that aren't apparent on the surface.
Charge handle buffer Changed out all the screws and blue loctite on every connection HK take down pins Foam filled the stock Magpul rail and AFG after I milled out the handguard to accept the rail So far I've put close to 500 rounds through it without a single hickup. A very fun gun. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a35/decraig2000/GSG-5SD.jpg |

Aw hell yeah SubSonicSnipe, you got the kit! Was the install on it pretty easy for you? I haven't really talked to too many people who actually got the conversion.

And it looks WAY more like an MP5 now. And because it's the LW, it's super light, so I can use it for my club competitions (steel chicken silhouette match that is xD) I have the screw upgrade, slip on rubber grip, and HK push pins coming in too shortly. Shot it 3 times so far, it's been nearly flawless (no problems at all with recommended ammo) and multiple RO's come up to me making sure I have paperwork for the suppressor lmao. |

I haven't really talked to too many people who actually got the conversion. i have the conversion kit as well on my gsg522-pk. it's odd, but i find it's more loose than the original lower kit. there's not any side to side movement, but front to back there is. it's like the pin holes were larger on the original version or something. but assembly was easy and very straight forward. i think there was one tweak where there's one less screw when going back to the gsg5 kit. if i recall, it was when working on the fore-end. |

Thats odd... I literally had the opposite experience. I was able to gt the original lower tighter than the 522 lower. |
