German Sport Guns GmbH is a German firearm manufacturer. Their company focus is on .22 LR firearms, intended for sport shooting and plinking .
Its products are copies or replicas of famous military firearms, but are often subject to much less legal scrutiny because of the cartridge they use.
A significant aspect of German Sport Guns' business model is its collaboration with other firearm manufacturers and distributors.[ 2]
This collaboration extends to various countries.
The company also produces airsoft replicas.[ 3]
