The_Lord_Poncho Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Picked up an old G36C+ a classic 'Bag of Bits' from a friend for £40. The rif seems pretty solid, nicely trademarked, and is marked with UMAREX licencing details on the magwell. Shoots quite nicely actually at circa 1J. I've been researching who the OEM could be, as I'm quite tempted to give the gun the love it deserves, and a bit of searching indicates Umarex have used a plethora of OEMs over the years for their G36s, including Cyma, JG, Ares, S&T. Does anyone know who the OEM is of this particular version? The gearbox is black painted metal - which makes me think it i possibly JG? If so, I'd be rather pleased! And if so, anything that I should look to swap out/replace for performance and longevity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strykerles Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 My guess would be a jg, can't be an ares as it works The_Lord_Poncho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Lozart Posted July 23 Supporters Share Posted July 23 Take the gearbox out of the lower, there's more likely to be markings on the bit you can't see! The_Lord_Poncho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure If SRC plastic is better than JG plastic - but this does feel pretty thick/solid/non creaky if that is anything to go by.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Lord_Poncho Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 Thanks - some minor differences by the look of it. And I'm very jealous of your quick change spring! gavinkempsell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinkempsell Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 This is another G36C I have but don't know the brand I'm afraid, it looks very similar to an src G36K I have tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lord_Poncho Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 Oh, that looks very different from mine. I think I'm going with JG for the time being, not least because of the black gearbox... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
