lol. Real G36s aren't as appealing to me, as I will probably never own one


Acidfire, your set-up is goddamn sexy! I think this should be the Official G36 porn thread.

I just got my G36 this week, I haven'y even used it yet and already I love this gun. Although I don't like the stock scope very much, after the summer when I have some money I want to put a G36C toprail on it and maybe an ACOG or something similar. Has anyone done that with the full length G36 that could reccomend any good parts?

I loved mine, but i find the degree of customibility limited. I love the stock K model though.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
any gun that fires a round in -30 weather and explodes is not rugged. (theres a picture of G36 that exploded from being fired in sub-zero temperatures, having trouble finding it though)
I had a G36K, and its a great starter gun, it IS really comfortable, and CA can actually make decent fibreglass (or glass fiber as they insist on calling it)
but i had it slung on my back and my shovel scratched up the body, so that was the last plastic gun i ever bought lol

the other thing is the magazines....worst...mags....EVER, they're bulky, they catch on everything, you need special pouches to hold them, and the tabs break off, its the biggest 30 round 5.56 mag out there, I'd pick an armalite over a G36 simply because you can fit atleast 3 M16 mags in a double G36 pouch

[Amazing KG3]

i hated the mags for that thing.

If I hadn't already spent over $100 on mags, I would consider converting to VN M16 mags when I do the SL-9 conversion... unfortunetly that would be a lot of money waisted on G36 mags.

Yea... I hope someone sells the stock alone... the entire conversion kit is around $550.. same as what I paid for the gun alone.

[Amazing KG3]

Well i know his is a CA8-2 he got really creative with.

5.) Many rails for accessories.

If anyone wants to add, please feel free.
Please don't bash the gun!

Your nitro folding grip is backwards

fireboy thats pretty sweet. Decide wither your keeping your original parts?

As for the CA8-2's sniper stock, I've already recommended to CA that they sell the upper Receiver and stock as a conversion kit and was told they'd consider it.

That would be awsome.
