Could they make it exact? Probably, but it would cost more and they'd sell less of them, I'd assume. They cut corners on their Type 56 Spiker clone as well. It's a balance they have to find and I bet it was deliberate for the niche they are in. I guess you can get the .22LR version of the STG44 from ATI/GSG for around $500 if you want something that shoots and looks similar to an STG44, or you can get the PSA version of the STG44 for - I'm assuming - somewhere around $1600 and shoot certerfire cartridges, or if you are a collector and want accuracy in the reproduction, you can get the DK version for $6200. View Quote Yes, I stand behind my statement, vaguely resembles a real STG44, you be the judge. I will also spend the $$$ to get the correct one, either a semi from a parts kit, or a faithful clone. I’d spend $6200.00 or more for a STG44 clone, but I sure as hell would not spend $1600.00 and a abomination PSA is calling a STG44. Nothing, I mean nothing will interchange, it has a slight resemblance and that’s it. Attached File
