Suppressor maker Gemtech will be selling a customized GSG-5 SD rifle that is suppressed. The GSG-5 SD is a .22 rifle patterned after the MP5SD, but the suppressor on it is fake.
The Gemtech GSD-5 is permanently suppressed (you cannot remove the suppressor) and is available in either a 16″ barrel configuration or in a SBR config. The price for the 16″ model will be $1195.

I was just talking about this with a guy at work. Does an integral suppressor count as class III? I remember there was a big todo over the gamo whisper (permanently suppressed pellet gun) and there was a ruling that since the suppressor couldn’t be removed without substantial effort (cutting it off the barrel) it didn’t count as class III. Am I mistaken or did I get that right?

Don, yes, it requires a stamp. Unlike the gamo suppressor, which is plastic and could not be used on a firearm, this is a “real” suppressor.
After handling one of the GSG pistols at a show today, the full-length integrally suppressed model may just be my first .22… I can see one $200 stamp, but not both.
If you have the GSG-5 SD, is it possible to integrally suppress it or suppress it in anyway even though it has a fake suppressor.
Bill, you can integrally suppress any rifle, but getting a gunsmith to build a custom suppressor would be costly.
What would be the cheapest way to suppress the GSG-5 SD.
buying one the above … otherwise you could get a gunsmith to cut the barrel shorter (making it a Short Barreled Rifle) and finding a suppressor small enough in diameter that it can be squeezed in, maybe with modifications to the shell. I have not seen them in person, so I can’t be of more help.
Ok. Well i own the GSG-5 so I was thinking on integrally suppressing it or cutting the barrel shorter and then tapping the barrel but I’m afraid that will make it class III for being short barreled.
When is the GSG5SD due out? I want one before the “chosen 1″ slams the door on our fun.
Recently they have said production would start in the Fall.
