| How many of you pilgrims have a real scope vs a red dot type on your GSG. I have a 2-7 leupold (50 yard parallex corrected) laying around that I'm thinking of mounting. I believe I would have to remove the rear sight to get it to mount even with the QD high rings it's wearing. No mount yet so can't judge yet. With all this durn ice (busted up my knee yesterday) I haven't got out to shoot the rifle yet, but the consensus seems to be that it will be very accurate and may merit a good scope. My Entry Tactical with Ciener kit is not very accurate - just fun. Opinions? Pictures? |

the gsg-5 carbine is a lot more like the hk94, imo
i wanted a lil optic enhancement on my gsg-5 as well. the irons are great for plinking out to 100yds but i wanted to see what kind of accuracy i could get further out using a scope as well. last time at the range i ran into an older guy with a scope mounted on his gsg-5 and he said it was great. nothing so big that you'd have to alter the rifle tho. i think the whole 'mp5's shouldn't have scopes' argument is silly, do what ever u want. don't people rock scopes on other 22cal rifles??? go check the gsg-5 pic thread, some cats got some big-boy scopes on their gsg's in there |

Here is mine with a V16 weaver. Works pretty good I have quick release rings on it. I plan on using the scope more this summer. I have a fakepoint on it right now with a laser. It's only a FREAKING 22 not a real MP5.

I have a Nikon Monarch 1.5-4X on mine.
It nice and compact and performs very well as parallax free (parallax set at 40 yards). The reticle is turkey type which give it a very good sight picture. http://www.pantip.com/cafe/gallery/topic/G7430486/G7430486-62.jpg |

There is nothing wrong with a scope on a 22 since it is much more likely to be used for hunting/varminting than tactical entry like it's 9mm inspiration.
The GSG is showing VERY good accuracy for me at 100yds so a scope is appropriate. I am using this scope on my wooded GSG but without the tri-rail and the long sun shade. It's a Leapers 6x24x50 with an adjustable objective. Old Big Scope set-up |
