H&K "Claims" that it can fire 20,000 rounds without a mishap. I'll believe that the day HRC becomes POTUS. Various other sites have claimed that it is better than the M16/M4 family. As for accessories it can mount a forward grip or an ACOG/AIMPOINT. I have no need for a laser, light or anything fancy. There are a couple of H&K dealers here where I live in Tampa so parts are taken care of. I ask here because I know you guys don't bullshit and will give a straight answer. I'd rather listen to a Professional than some guy posting what he thinks he knows on the net. Thanks for taking your time to respond to my original post TR.
Call your H&K dealers and tell them that you would like to buy a spare fring pin, extractor, and spring kit for the G36.

Let us know what they tell you, after they tell you that you don't need any of that.

I can get an M-4 the way I want it, a rail system, a spare parts kit, and a dozen mags for under a grand, from at least a half-dozen dealers here in this area. Let me know what the H&K runs, IF you can even get that stuff.

How many countries use the G-36 and how many wars has it been tested in?

Get in a jam, yell for a buddy to toss you a spare mag. Good luck.

BTW, stay away from the K model unless you are only doing CQB.
