Tokyo Marui G36c
A little history of the H&K G36c
The H&K G36c is the smallest of the G36 family. H&K of Germany first produced the G36 series in the early 1990’s, so they are relatively new rifles. They fire the 5.56x45mm round which is the same as the AR-15. It is a very versatile weapon, but in real life the G36c is used primarily for CQC. It features a folding stock which makes the gun even better for tight quarters. Being completely ambidextrous, the G36 series is very easy to handle for right or left handed soldiers.
The Rifle
The G36c is a very modern gun, and may not be recognized by all. However, it has seen action in many movies, including Doom. One of the first things you will probably notice when looking at the gun is the fake bullets in the magazine. They are very well detailed, and look real even when you look really close. Great job by Tokyo Marui there on the realism, but you do sacrifice some, as the magazine only holds 50 rounds compared to most Tokyo Marui magazine’s 68 rounds. The magazines also have the capability of clamping together, but I would advise not to clamp, unclamp the magazines a lot, as the tabs that connect them are weak. The tabs on my Classic Army hi-cap already broke, but my TM lowcaps are fine.
The body of the G36c is all plastic, similar to the real G36’s polymer. The body, however, is very solid being all plastic, as there is an internal metal skeleton. There is no body flex, but the magwell creaks a little bit. There are also full Heckler and Koch trademarks on the left side of the gun.
Metal parts on this gun include: trigger, selector switch, top rail(I added the G&P carry handle, more on this later), flash hider, fake gas block, bottom rail on the fore grip, and the ejection port cover. The selector switch is very nice and clicks into all its positions; safe, semi-automatic, and full auto. Semi auto is very crisp, and allows for easy double taps. I added a G&P carry handle, G&P KE stock, and a First Factory large fore grip to my gun right away. I also added a homemade silencer. With everything installed on mine, it tipped the scales at right around 9 pounds. With a mini battery, the balance is perfect, but with a large, it is a little front heavy.
G&P Carry Handle
The G&P carry handle fits right onto the G36c without any modifications at all, and is mounted by 3 screws. It is made out of a different type of plastic that almost feels like rubber and is slightly greyer than the body. Some my not like the color differences, but I think it goes good with the gun. The build quality of this piece is extremely good. It also features a built in 3.5x scope. This scope is very nice, but being so small, the field of view is not very good. It is very sharp and clear, and the reticule is very unique. It is the same as the real steel. The scope is also fully adjustable by turning two different allen screws. Another thing about the scope is the eye relief is very short; you almost have to have your face touching the carry handle. There are also some back-up iron sights on the top of the carry handle, but those should only be used in an emergency, as there are not very good.
G&P KE Stock
The KE stock is a little longer than the G36c stock, and is for those who want to convert their G36c into a G36K or G36, or those who are tall and feel the regular stock is too short. I got mine because I wanted to convert it into a G36K. It is very strong, and is made out of plastic similar to the body of the G36, however, it is similar in color to the carry handle and feels slightly stronger. It folds just like the regular stock to the right side. There is also a hard rubber pad at the end so it will not slip off of your shoulder when firing.
First Factory Large Fore Grip
I purchased the large fore grip instead of the K style fore grip for one reason: large battery. I like to be able to shoot the whole day without changing the battery. The stock fore grip only holds a mini battery, or G36c custom batteries, and I hate to use mini batteries, as they do not last long enough. The FF large fore grip can hold up to a 9.6v 3300Mah battery! The build quality is not as good as the G&P products, and feels very plasticy and it wobbles at tiny bit. I added 2 rails to it, one on the bottom and one on the left side. When you use a large battery, you cannot mount a rail on the bottom of the stock, unless you cut down the screws as I did. I really like the looks of this fore grip, and the large battery is worth the not-as-good build quality.
Performance
I can not tell you how good this gun is stock, as right when I got it I upgraded it to 400fps. Everything internally is upgraded, except the piston and gears. I got the SystemA bore-up kit for it, and I am very pleased with it. The barrel is KM, so I cannot tell you how accurate this gun is stock either, but I can tell you that the Tokyo Marui hop up is very good. To access the hop up, you have to pull back on the charging handle to view the hop up adjuster.
At 40feet, indoors with .20gram bbs I can easily get 2inch groupings, not bad. This thing shoots far! Effective range with my gun is about 150feet, and the max range is probably 200feet. The rate of fire (ROF) with my 8.4v 3300Mah battery is very similar to my 9.6v mini battery. The ROF is very good, easily 17-18 rounds per second, very fun to shoot.
The possibilities are endless!
If you get tired of the looks of your stock G36c, you could get many new add-ons and accessories to make your rifle look new again. You can get anything from XM8 conversion kits, to MG36 kits. There are a few c-mags and box mags available, as well as many different fore grips and other upgrade possibilities.
Pros:
+Strong body, with very little creaking
+Many upgrade possibilities
+Good balance
+Good ergonomics
+Great for CQC
+Good hop up and accuracy
+Magazines can be clipped together
Cons:
-Only uses mini battery stock
