The GSG-16 Carbine is a full-size .22 LR semi-automatic rifle built for shooters who want a fun, accurate, and easy-to-shoot platform without the recoil and cost of centerfire rounds. Chambered in .22 LR with a 16.25" barrel featuring 6-groove rifling, this American Tactical Imports carbine delivers reliable performance whether you're training, plinking, or introducing new shooters to the sport. The modern M-Lok handguard and Picatinny rails give you plenty of options for mounting optics, lights, or other accessories.
The GSG-16 strikes a balance between sportiness and practicality. Its green polymer receiver and black collapsible stock with built-in storage compartment give it a tactical look, while the adjustable front and rear sights let you dial in accuracy right out of the box. The collapsible stock allows you to fine-tune the length of pull, and the storage compartment in the stock is genuinely useful for stashing spare ammo or small tools in the field. At just 5.84 lbs unloaded, it handles effortlessly, making it an excellent choice for younger or smaller-framed shooters as well as anyone seeking a lightweight, low-recoil training rifle.
The 10+1 capacity keeps you in the action, and the ambidextrous safety ensures any shooter can operate it comfortably. The faux suppressor muzzle gives it a modern appearance without adding real sound suppression. This is a right-hand rifle built with semi-auto reliability and designed for shooters who want to run more trigger time without burning expensive centerfire ammo.
