I haven't yet had a chance to really use the gun, but it's made a very good impression on me. The first thing I noticed was how large this gun is. I was previously using guns such as the MP5 and the G3 SAS, so this will take a bit of getting used to. The reciever on this gun, according to ASGI, is made from a plastic reinforced with fiberglass. I really like the sturdiness that it provides along with the texture. However, it does have a tendency to hold fingerprints, so watch for that if it's something you care about. Another thing to note is that seams from the molds are plainly visible in the plastic. I'm sure a lot of you hate those, but it's nothing that a quick filing wouldn't fix. I wasn't bothered by it enough to spend the time doing that, though.

When extended, the stock is very sturdy. The release button latches into a piece of metal, so there is no chance of the stock breaking off. However, it does attach to the frame rather loosly. It's not going anywhere though, so it's not much of a problem.

If you're a fan of lasers, lights or foregrips, you'll love these rails. As far as I can tell, the forward three are made from aluminum while the top is made from the same material as the reciever. It seems that a second rail can be attached on the bottom to make room for something like a grenade launcher. I used the top rail to mount a reflex sight and it looks great.

The other parts of the gun are pretty good, but they have some problems. First off, the mags don't fit tight to the mag well. I was actually surprised at how much they wiggle in such an otherwise great gun. However, they aren't all bad. Iin the reviews of the other G36s, I noticed that a lot of people had trouble stacking the mags. These ones on the other hand are great; they fit together tight and there's no way they're coming apart.

The scope seems to be of decent quality, but the eye relief isn't that great. It is adjustable, but I haven't had a chance to sight it in.

The selector switch is pretty good. There's an audiable click when you change fire modes, but I seem to over-shoot the 'semi' mark when changing from 'safe'. I'm not sure if this would put me into automatic, but that's something I'll report back on after playing a few games.

Lastly, installing the battery. This was something that I had a lot of trouble with after trying to put it in the foregrip like the instructions said. However, I found a much easier way of doing it. If you just hold the battery to where the rear of the forgrip ends up, it'll jsut slide right over it. I'm kinda' mad that it took me that long to figure it out, but I was following instructions that were clearly wrong.
