G.S.G. STG44 - 7 Years Later

[@treyfannin4037]

Take it out to 100! I've always been curious why they never launched a version that would fire 7.62x39. Keep up the good work brother!

[@iloveshootingshit]

There was a company that was going to make one but it never happened. And I am considering making a video on its accuracy

[@treyfannin4037]

@@iloveshootingshit I hate it never came to light. Distance and accuracy would be great! I've considering picking one up for years now. It's odd that it shot low though, especially after you heavily adjusted the sights.

I've had mine for many years also. Never one single problem after 1000's of rounds. Sights suck tho - I just go a bit high and it is usually spot on around 50 yes. Great little Stg!

Great Video! I was able to pick up 3 more mags at LGS who had forgot they had them in the back for normal prices. Also picked up the Threaded muzzle nut 1/2X28 from Tacticool 22 so I can run suppressed now! So much fun!

[@loganholt3423]

What's LGS I've been looking almost everywhere for mags and couldn't find any

[@davidturcotte5677]

Check out gunbroker, mags have gotten expensive 75 bucks apiece, but they had a few.

[@kevinc5917]

I am new to this just got my pal and getting this gun , can you explain "so I can run suppressed" to me?

[@alanpeters591]

I’ve had the internal plastic guide rod in the recoil spring break several times. The rod just snaps off. I gave up and machined one from an aluminum rod. Mine shot low also and I filed the front sight down. Rather than run with the rear sight tipped up all the way. File very small increments. Took about 3/16 inch total. Yea. A lot. As far as actual accuracy, you can hit a 5 gallon bucket about every shot at 100 yards. Partially because the rear sight has some lateral movement. It rarely has a feed or extraction malfunction. You are spot on about how dirty it can be and still function. Overall it certainly isn’t a rabbit hunting gun but it is hella fun. And it looks good. I am satisfied with it for what I paid.

[@VagisBlazin]

Thanks, love the white screen and clear stands to showcase the rifle, great work.

[@iloveshootingshit]

Thank you for the compliment

[@kimisdaman]

I had to be the first kid on the block with the StG44, and at the time I bought it, I think rimfire ammo was at its peak of high price and low availability, and I just never shot it, and usually don't remember I have it! In the few hundred rounds I have shot, my only complaint is that it won't extract live rounds. All the shooting I do is competition, with an "unload and show clear" at the end of the string, and using a knife or something to dig out that round, to show clear, is a hassle. Definitely a fun shooter.

[@JoshuaLenerville]

I finally picked one of these up, it was used but in really good shape and for only $200 I had to get it.

[@hipperchonklothe4orth728]

[@loganholt3423]

Tip when it jams gently pull the charging handle a tiny bit back but not all the way were it can fall then when it falls move it forward then pull it all the way so a round flies out and bam it's ready again

[@maffooo]

I need help accessing the barrel as there is some movement. I wanna get in there and see how I can firm it up. Do you have / know of any videos that demonstrate removing the receiver to access the barrel?

[@iloveshootingshit]

I do not. I'm sorry

[@stardudez]

Have you noted the last round tends to jam failure to feed no matter how many are loaded ? Cant pull bolt back and eject as its bent ? Only dropping the mag pulls it out > Have 3 mags and all do this - using CCI HV 36 and 40 grain minimags

[@ItchyPilauBoto]

I never had this issue yet and i only have 1 mag..

[@sfbadger45]

I was surprised at how low mine shoots. At 50 yds. I have the rear sight at nearly max elevation. Glad to hear I'm not the only one. Where did you find parts for yours, like the pin you said was walking out of the bolt?

[@iloveshootingshit]

I happened to have one that fit

[@klaytonb9609]

Not gonna lie dude, the way it's angled in the thumbnail made me think I was looking at a STG-44 turned lovecraftian monstrosity for a moment. Please, as a man of German descent have mercy. I almost had a heart attack.

[@iloveshootingshit]

🤣🤣🤣

[@jakelencher817]

im not sure if gsg even makes these anymore, really want one.

[@robinkrton]

My sights are low as well. When you look at the leaf sight from the side, it’s curved down. I thought I had dropped it somehow.

[@HarborLockRoad]

I agree about the sights and the jamming, beautiful rifle, but for $600.00 I paid for it new when they first came out and were crazy in demand, those issues should have never existed. And now I can't get mags either!

[@Lungorthin666]

Strange, the finish on mine has aged quite a bit since first purchasing it, with honestly not much use. It used to be as dark as the handguard which remains dark while the rest has dulled for some reason.

[@MJMJ27]

[@OrangeBananaMongoose]

ILOVESHOOTINGSHIT what could that problem be? I just ordered one and you seem to break all of these cheaper 22’s and find their faults so I figured you would have some knowledge of the problem because nobody else really has any videos on this gun anymore; Since it’s been discontinued.

[@willf5768]

Wonder if shooting the rifle with the bolt stop being inoperable and dry firing essentially on the last trigger pull is as we know dry firing .22 rim fire will damage most .22 gun chamber front surfaces and eventually leave the rifle or pistol inoperable.
