Guns america shows $495 brand new and gun broker $500, but the first generation had some ejector issues. the ejection plate they used was tacked on, many owners had to return theirs to the factory after they loosened up.The factory fix for it was to have it riveted in.I have also read things like the finish on the upper did not hold to well and using certain solvents just ate it up. Theirs even pics on ARFCOM that shows they had changed to a greenish hue. Other then that, they are great rifles. I have a GSG-5SD that I received on a trade from someone here on INGO.Gonna sight in my red dot on mine this weekend at the Ft Wayne meet and shoot.What kinda price range would I be looking at if I wanted a GSG-5 Carbine 1st Anniversary Edition?
They did fix the ejector issue in the newer models. Gen 2 and up to the 522 post lawsuit model. Did h send it back to ATI, they will do the update to the ejector plate at no charge from what I have read.I can vouch for the ejector issues. Buddy of mine bought one awhile back and it was just such a hassle shooting his. It would fail to eject about every fifth round. Just aggravating to say the least. But of course he had a first gen, I think they fixed it on the new ones.
