Is the FSB able to take a TIG weld so I can blind pin an extension onto the barrel of my GSG-5P? Has anyone had any TIG work done in Southern Indiana? I am looking for someone who can recommend a gunsmith to do it. They don't even have to be a gunsmith if they do great TIG welding. Thanks, louielouie

FS2KSTD and Kilibreaux, When I got the handle it just didnt look the way I thought it would. You guys were right. louielouie

imschur, The UTG handle that you found on Amazon is the one I am asking about. As far as asthetics, I have always liked the look of the carry handle but I may or may not like it on my GSG-5. I will try to post a photo when I get it in and on my rifle. Thanks for the fast response. louielouie

I have always liked the look of the AR15 M4 carry handle. Will it fit my GSG-5 without modification? There in a AR15 carry handle on Combat Optical that is supposed to fit the GSG-5 and I figured it couldn't be too different from the UTG. Anyone out there know for sure? louielouie

I got one of the adapters from Brownells that says right on the package it is for the GSG-5P. My problem is that it only screws on about halfway and then I get so much resistence that I am afraid to try to go any further. I even tried wetting the threads wth Breakfree, but still have the same result. I know I could force it further but I am afraid of cross threading or damamging the threads. I have tried my original flash hider and it still screws right in, so I figure the threads are okay so far. Any suggestions, or has anyone else had this happen? Thanks, louielouie p.s. Is their anyone out there who could take a piece of M1 Carbine barrel and thread the outside so it would screw directly into the FSB on the GSG-5p? I don't have it yet but I know it is demilled with the muzzle end intact and the barrel cut about 9 inches behind that.

Got my GSG-5P from Jand G sales for $299.95 and haven't stopped thinking of new things to do to it. Too cold to shoot here right now, so it is a good time to tinker with guns. I belong to several gun sites and really enjoy learning and sharing with others. I have attached my Saiga 16" 7.62 x39 after I got through with it. See you around the forum. louielouie
