Concr3te Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hi there, I've always loved the looks of the MG36 and I'd like to get one myself too. However, I don't have enough money to buy a G36 front end kit, scoped carrying handle, C mag and all yet. This is why I'd like to just get a few upgrades for my JG G36c first, like a bipod and a drum mag. I've been looking at RSOV.com, because they've got plenty cheap choices, but I have no idea what kind of bipod to get. I thought this one would be a good one, as I thought it would fit on my RIS rail, but the mount on the bipod looks quite small, so I'm not sure if it will fit. So will that bipod fit or not, if not, what kind of bipod would? Another thing I'm wondering about is, when I decide to get more parts for my MG36, whether I need upgraded internals or not. I wouldn't like to mess around with the gear box and piston and stuff, but I don't want my gun to melt after a few long bursts either. Could anyone answer these two questions for me?

Coldgunner Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I wouldn't worry about the internals, they will be sound anyway. *I think* the real steel MG36 is just a G36 with a Beta-c mag, bipod and heavier barrel. Link to post Share on other sites
Ali-The-T Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hi, that bipod will fit, as long as you have a rail on your G36c foregrip. As for internals - is it a JG G36c? If so they already have very good internals, although one thing I would reccomend is metal bushings which will take the strain from the gears much better. Link to post Share on other sites

The bipod isn't even MG36 specific, im pretty sure some units of the german army have bipods on normal G36A2s. And I dont think theres anything really visually different between the barrels either!

And I dont think theres anything really visually different between the barrels either! I always thought the barrel was heavier due to the more sutained fire. I think you could be right though, as one of the advantages of the G36 is the easy adaptability to such a role. Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypink Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Well the real steel MG36 certainly has a heavier barrel to cope with sustained fire, but visually it hardly differs from the normal full length G36. In airsoft not having a heavier barrel certainly wouldn't be a problem. All you need to fit are a longer internal and external barrel, foregrip, bipod, get a C-mag or box mag, and fit a carrying handle with integrated toprail, and viola! Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Barsteward Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 don`t forget the mg36 has a k type flash hider instead of the standard g36 birdcage one. and you will need to put a k stock on it as well Link to post Share on other sites
Skarclaw Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 don`t forget the mg36 has a k type flash hider instead of the standard g36 birdcage one. No it doesn't. Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Barsteward Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 No it doesn't. whoops! so it does`nt sorry do`nt know where i got that idea from Link to post Share on other sites
ollie_ty Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Instead of buying the increasingly rare and shoddy STAR G36 Dual Sight, you could go with the better CA G36 sight, then, following N00btard's guide, affix a 20mm rail to the scope. Then, find one of These. Not sure how high they sit off the rail, but could be a better way to go if you wanted dual sights. Link to post Share on other sites
Panzergraf Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 From pics of Bundeswehr soldiers in afghanistan and such, the Eotech 552 seems to be a popular choice to put on top of a G36, I've got one on mine and even though it ends up a little high, I love it. Another good thing about the EOtech is that even if the real one isn't that expensive if bought used from Ebay, you can get chinese replicas that work OK for even less. I put the rail on top of the CA scoped carryhandle just like in the guide. Link to post Share on other sites
The Hammer Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 The bi-pod you are talking about will fit a ris rail, but save your money for one a bit better. I have one of those, and its quite pants really. You will be dissapointed if you got it. Link to post Share on other sites
lewis hiscock Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 personally if your not going for the handguard bipod on the actual mg36, i would get a nice (or even cheap) harris style bipod. they are much sturdier than the one youve pictured and i believe RSOV have them in various forms for reasonable prices.

gisburn20 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 I love the look of that Insight ISM-v he linked too , god i wish someone would produce a clone! $799 is a bit steep for a sight! Jim Link to post Share on other sites
lewis hiscock Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 horses for courses i guess because i think its fugly. personally i would consider a Doctor style reflex sight to fit atop the carry handle as it will not add alot of height to the weapon. Link to post Share on other sites
The General Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I went for the Classic Army Bipod and its very good. Made from Nylon, its designed to custom fit the full sized G36. It will however NOT fit the K or C model. Link to post Share on other sites
