This seems to happening more and more often with "cloned" weapons. If you have

a GSG-5 of any type you better hold on to it. The best thing about it is that

ATI is standing behind the product Warranty even tho they are no longer

manufacturing it. Check this out.

Re: Heckler and Koch, Inc. vs. German Sport Guns GmbH, American Tactical Imports, Inc. Civil Action No. 1 : 09-cv-00039-WTL-JMS (S.D. Indiana)

 

 

For immediate release,

 

We are very pleased to report that the litigation filed by Heckler & Koch, Inc. against German Sport Guns GmbH and its U.S. distributor, American Tactical Imports, Inc., together with all counterclaims, has been settled.

 

The terms of the settlement are confidential to the parties and cannot be disclosed. A dismissal of the above-referenced litigation, and all of the party’s claims against each other, is expected to be filed in the near future.

 

Attorneys for H&K will be issuing a statement. The attorneys for ATI have already issued a statement announcing the settlement.

 

Production and importation of the original design GSG-5 ceased as of Oct, 8, 2009 with the signing of the agreement. The remaining inventory now in the USA can be sold by ATI, all distributors and dealers. ATI currently has GSG-5’s in stock.

 

All sales of the GSG-5 by ATI must conclude by January 31, 2010. ATI will continue to service every firearm that it imports into the USA.

 

Thank you for your support.

Anthony DiChario

President C.E.O.

American Tactical Imports, Inc.

Uh - look at the dates - 2009, done by January 31st 2010? They're still selling these guns.

That is because they are allowed to sell any previously imported GSG's. They inported a billion before the ruling.

Oh good Lord..doesnt anyone ever bother to check anything? ATI is STILL Importing GSG-5's they had to change the design slightly so that it is no longer a direct clone of the MP-5..HOWEVER they are also selling Kits so the User can put it into the original GSG-5 configuration. ATI is also importing a Turkish copy of the HK-94, and MP-5 pistols (Too heavy for here in Nj sadly) which is a little on the spendy side, but from what i understand VERY well made unlike some of the other clones of that particular weapon that have been made. GSG, and ATI are still FULLY SUPPORTING the Guns already out there and have any and all parts. Again, Unfortunately for us here in the PRNJ they are also making a 50 round Drum for the GSG models that we wont be able to get.

 

Go to ar15-com, in the "Armory" section and the GSG-5 forum..there are copies of ALL of the pertinent articles, as well as statements from the president of ATI concerning this issue. It has also been addressed HERE if you look further down in the Rimfire forum.

This is all old news.

Yep, a deal was reached with Hk, and now Hk is getting a kickback.... but yes... welcome to last year. =) I thought the post was bumped from a year ago, duh.

OK, im a little late being new to the GSG saaga. So let me make sure I understand this correctly.

The GSG522 rifle I just purchased is infact a newly manufactured,

updated,upgraded and ATF compliant firearm? Is that correct to the best of

anyones knowledge? Also, GSG is still manufacturing and Importing via ATI

with HK getting a piece of the revenue? Is that correct? And finally would

it also be safe to assume that most of the problems should have been

resolved at this point?..IE FTF,cracked barrels,loosining screws...etc,etc.
