Just my $0.02, feel free to ignore...

G36C. It's a good build and the mechbox is a version 3 (durable, more cold weather tolerant, etc....). Lots of spare parts and some conversion options available. Biggest downside is being stuck with mini batteries if you want an internal battery. In my opinion, 2nd biggest drawback is that the G36 series magazines are freaking huge and you may have a hard time finding a vest/rig that works for you.

M4 S-System. LOTS of accessories and parts, mags, upgrades, etc....except that the M4 S-System body is not a typical M4 body and so there are limited metal/replacement body options. If the front end ends up being heavy, all that cantilevered weight could put undue stress on the plastic body. If your body goes...you're stuck (more so than with plastic M4 rifles where metal bodies are easier, relatively, to come by). With with S-system, in stock format, you're still stuck to mini batteries up front, but you have the easier option of rewiring and running a crane stock in back.

If I had to pick between them, I'd get the G36 and deal with the battery/mag issues. Plenty of people run them and have a blast.

FPS and accuracy between the two are very similar. Both have short barrels so neither is going to be as accurate as a longer gun like a G36E or M16. Most airsoft guns, especially ones by the same manufacturer, perform almost identical stock.

The G36 has a V3 mechbox which is stronger than the V2 mechbox, so it won't be as likely to break in colder weather (or any weather). In the end it comes down to personal preferance -which gun do you like the look of better? Which one feels more comfortable for you?

And incase noone has pointed it out yet, you can't order a gun from the US. You'll have to get Age Verified and use the classifieds here and our Canadian retailers.

unless your JG's are all metal including bodies the M4 will cost you more to upgrade to metal as you WILL need an adapter kit (TM's require them) and they are exact clones

Have any of you guys tried adding a M-203 grenade launcher I'm thinking about doing that and putting a crane stock on, partly to counterweight the grenade launcher but also I dont like how the foregrip opens up the little springs that are suppose to push out the screws are quite weak so it can be quite diffucult to get the stupid thing to open and close.

Ehhh!!??sorry its a thread about 2 differents guns (JG M4 S-system and the JG G36c)and im asking people the one they love the most and why with the experience they had with those so i dont think your grenade launcher has something to do with those gun even if its about using it on one of those its just not about the good question so go make your own thread and have a nice day thanks.

the hk416 is much better out of the box compared to g36c, based on experience and a little research from other users. i have been using a g36c for 3 years, maybe i just got bored. hehe.

if your after accuracy and good fps out of the box, i recommend the s-system, nothing can go wrong. just buy a better battery for better rate of fire also.
