Converting G36C to G36

blade_x23 · September 9th, 2009, 23:53

Planning on converting a friend's TM G36C into a G36 full size (not the one I have for sale). Going to be getting the G&P G&P G36 Handguard w/ Bipod & Barrel Set. What size of inner barrel and cylinder type would I need to complete the conversion?

G36C has a barrel length of 249mm and a ported cylinder to match. The cylinder will support upto a 363mm barrel which is a G36K length. If you change your barrel to a full length G36 you'd have to change your cylinder to a non ported one as well. (sorry i don't remember what the length is needed for a full G36. I beleive it's 495mm)

469mm inner barrel, and I believe the cylinder shouldn't ported at all; it's more or less just a metal pipe with that length of barrel.

This is where I documented the changing of mine if you're interested.

(Page 1 is the G36C, page 2 is the G36)

The inner barrel length for a full size G36 is 494mm. You should be able to fit a 509mm (standard M16 barrel) into one without issue though, as it won't stick out beyond the "solid" part of the flashider.

yeah it's 495 (just checked mine)or 494 (depending on manufacturer whatever...) and G36C comes with a ported cylinder. I just said he'd have to change his cylinder to NON-ported as well to match the new barrel length.

I'm kinda aware of cylinder types, I was moreso unsure about barrel size but thanks for confirming that chaos.

i was under the impression that there is a difference in the length of the stock as well. they sell G36K stocks (G&P makes them).

Not worried as much about the stock, as it's more of a barrel length conversion more than a full conversion. The user simply wants a longer barrel length (without using a silencer), so we opted to simply get a front kit for a G36. However, it is a good point that the 36c is a bit smaller stock. Maybe a bit later down the road we'll get a new one. But we'd also need to get a new top rail (the magnified version) to complete the look as well, so it would be a bit further down the road.

G36 and K stocks are 1" longer than a C stock.

I personally can't use a C stock properly...
