Historical StG 44 in .22LR Rimfire Coming from ATI

[jmoore]

Walked in to the local gun shop Saturday...just looking...no money for toys...I now own a STG-44

Nice gun! Mostly all metal (over 9 lb's). Looks well made and most all of the external details match the real ones.

I waved it under jmoore's nose yesterday after lunch. He seems to have liked it.

Quite! If it shoots reliably it ought to be a good low cost alternative the the full bore version which in the new semi-auto version seems to have had some dramas.

I'd have gone over in much more detail, but i was covered in hydraulic oil most of the afternoon.

The heart of the action seems to be an adaptation of the AR-15 .22 conversion which isn't a bad thing. Magazines are stout. Barrel proper is not a "heavy" profile, but is more substantial than the .22rf clone of the MP-5. Generally nicer than the .22 MP-5s.

My son and I ordered one each
ATI is shipping 12 to my dealer but since I am in NEW YAWK I have to wait for the 10 rd. mags to be manufactured
I just read on the Gunboards forum that they found a container with 5000 originals in Syria (pictures on youtube) Very jealous am I

I got mine yesterday and i'm impressed with the feel and looks of the rifle. It feels very solid.
