You only need to swap out the front end and the RIS.

 

I'd make a guess at around £60ish. Under £100 definitely.

Cool, roughly £80 with postage :-)

 

Thanks

Pretty much 50% of the gun... you'd probably save money by selling the TT version and buying a new black one :)

about £8 to take that back to black if the green parts are just sprayed... fairy power spray and a stiff nail brush. Elbow grease of course doesn't have a monetary value.

 

That's how I would do it of course, failing that, a couple of sheets of fine grain (300 ish) glasspaper, a can of black spraypaint and some decent spray varnish.

 

Either way, much much cheaper than replacing the parts entirely

Yup I've used fairy power spray too just take off parts put in bag spary all over tie up bag leave over night every now anf then give a quick spray and turn about in bag nxt day wash off sprayand use nial brush or a dish washing brush, done this to two of my guns after I got me three games in at combat south

 

But I think that gun comes in green nylon/fibre stuff and not sprayed so it would have to be sprayed black try findi g some where that will spary 2 tone and when you played your 3 games usd abve method just athoight good luck

This isn't for me. a guy at my local site offered this G36c + 2 batteries + 5 mags for £200

 

My friend who's just got into Airsoft wondered if its worth it in the long run in terms of turning it to 'black' once he is UKARA'd up

I'd recommend wearing gloves though - just stripped the tan desert paint job off my M4 so I could give it an urban paint job. Power Spray worked a treat, but all the time spent scrubbing with it on my hands left them peeling like a bad sun burn the next day! Didn't hurt at all, but looked horrendous. On the bright side, my hands now look nice and young having removed the top layer of skin :) Who needs expensive exfoliants from Boots ;)
