G36c / Modified MC51, Size Comparison
One thing to note. The G36 Series is the newer generation to the HK Classic G3 line of battle rifles. My modified MC51 with full stock can be considered the Commando/Compact version of the G3 series and the "C" in G36c stands for *Commando/Compact as well. Another thing to note. HK made a rifle system called the OICW (Click Here for more info on the OICW) The lower end of the OICW is a G36. Since the G36 series is based around the NATO 5.56 round the rifle frame is comparable to the M4/M16. The G3 line was based around the 7.62 x 51 or 308 cal round and thus a larger framed rifle.

G36c
The G36c is a very well built Airsoft replica. Very solid from stock to barrel. My first impression was it was a bit too small and comparable in size to the MP5 line of SMG's, but the G36c takes the best of a full sized rifle in Magazine and the High Cap mags will carry 470 rounds of ammo. The mags are now designed to snap together so you can stack as many mags as "makes sense". The Standard G36 mags have fake bullets (The Standard P90 mags do as well) inside them which make the unit look very impressive.

G36c Stock Folded
The compact size of the G36c with the stock folded is quite impressive. Although I personally like to shoulder my rifles when firing, this does add some benefits in CQB (Close Quarters Combat)

G36c Foregrip Closeup
The small 8.4 600Mah battery sits within the foregrip and it only takes the removal of 1 large pin to access. Space is limited in the foregrip, but I have put a 9.6 8 cell mini without foregrip modification. The rails on the G36c are all metal and will accomodate any 20mm mounting system. This lower rail is very strong, ulike the AK47 Spetnaz, and easily held my CAW mini Launcher.

G36c Folding Stock Closeup
There is 1 large button to depress to fold the stock. The size of the button is helpful if you are wearing gloves. The stock folds to the right and locks to the body of the rifle. Simply pull the stock off the retaining clip to move it back into the unfolded position.

G36c Fire Control Selector and Std Mag Closeup
The Fire Selector is very positive and ambidextrous. Unlike the TM G3's this firing selector is very easy to operate and locks into position adn is located closer to your thumb.

G36c (1 more and I can go Akimbo!!!)
Overall I am VERY impressed with the TM G36c in the detail and quality of workmanship. The G36c uses the EG1000s motor with a Ver3 gearbox.
One problem I have seen but not experienced first hand (knock on wood) is there seems to be a durability problem with some of the cosmetic parts. This may be due to the fact the G36c is mostly plastic.
This rifle shoots about 290 fps out of the box as compared to a normal 275 fps for a stock AEG. The ROF and FPS are pretty impressive for a stock AEG.
Added M100 Spring and new GearSet.
