How to : Clean and Lube your GSG 16

[@michaeldamskey1025]

The little spring everyine keeps asking about is an uncaptured spring. Its the slide catch lever spring. It goes across the chamber in a little rectangular cavity. It just pushes in

[@BlackBearOutdoors]

Thanks for the info!

[@saskatchewandave]

Is it 100% necessary for the gun to be operational? Just asking because I saw another video where someone said probably not. I haven't lost mine yet, but just in case I do!

HKParts has a kit for the GSG's for around $30 shipped.

[@TaeussKramme]

@@goobon Question is how many of which type do you need? HKP sells a kit with 3 small and one large for the butt stock, but are these applicable to the GSG-16? It seems to me that you'd only need one large and one small or did I miss something? Thanks.

4:10 To anyone watching this for GSG disassembly/cleaning, be VERYYYYYY CAREFUL w/ the BHO spring, that shit can snap right off when you take the upper and lower receivers apart, so pay attention to where it flies off to so you can retrieve it lol (p.s. good luck putting the spring back in....)

Higher velocity ammo make jams less frequent on the GSG-16

[@556online]

I just shot around 500 rounds through my gsg16 today and decided to check your video to give it a good cleaning. Straight to the point and good advice about getting take down pins. One thing I noticed is that there wasn’t a lot of carbon, far less than my AR’s put out. I strictly use cci mini mags so that might be why and I also Never had a feeding problem but one thing I did notice is there was a ton of sandy materiel. Is that what’s meant by when they say 22’s run dirty? Like literal sand. Anyway I cleaned and lubed the heck out of it. I like my guns to run very wet. Thanks again and subscribed.

[@TaeussKramme]

No, sand is not what they mean by .22s running dirty. That one is on wherever it was that you went shooting. I'd watch that one as it'll promote accelerated wear on the internals.

Saw one of these in use at my Range. Spoke to the owner, he expressed frustration over the amount of times it failed to feed. As I watched, it appeared numerous. He liked the gun in every other respect and was in the process of experimenting with different ammo to improve the situation. Even sent the gun to an armorer without improvement. Excellent explanation of the takedown on this video. I’m interested in owning this gun, but want to see more information before I purchase to see how widespread the FtF issue might be.

[@miztrusa]

[@ryanandaprilwigdahl5263]

I have a lot of rounds through mine so far and only had one failure to eject, never a FTF yet and I'm using CCI standard velocity.

[@erinpatterson9930]

I can understand his frustration. Have had mine for roughly a year. Have 3 stick mags that feed perfectly regardless of HV or standard ammo. Went out to play with my drum the other day loaded with Aguila Super Extra rounds and had failure one after another. Unloaded 40 of 50 rounds by hand after giving up.... at least I didn't load the full 100+ like I was planning. Absolutely love and enjoy this little rifle. Works like a dream for me.... maybe stay away from the drum mag. If the fella your talking about was using regular 22rd. stick mags and still having problems i would say somethings up with his rifle. Mine has only let me down when using the drum that one particular day. And that could be ammo related, maybe even my own damn fault somehow. Other than that no issues, and tons of fun! For the Price. The look. The cheap ammo. Its a great package, and that 9" barrel model looks even better IMO. Hope this helped!
