H&K G36cv Blowback AEG (Licensed by Umarex, Made by ARES) This officially licensed H&K G36cv by ARES is the most popular model airsoft gun in the world. Designed as a short barrel assault rifle, this AEG has many opportunities for individual customization. The carbine length barrel is perfect for both close quarter environments and middle distance target acquisition. This model features licensed H&K trademarks, realistic blowback action, the much sought after piston release button, 8mm bearings in the metal mechbox, and individualized unique serial numbers. The body and most other parts are a highly durable, high quality fiberglass and the rest are metal as necessary. The carry handle has been modified so that instead of a 3x magnification scope, there is a full length picatinny rail system so that the optic of your choice can be mounted. The stock is a modified side fold for easy entrance and exit from vehicles or for storage in a smaller gun case. There are also multiple brackets for optimal mounting of slings, whether you prefer single point, two point, or three point. The rifle comes with an ARES 440 round high capacity magazine, but other high capacity replacements can hold 470 rounds or more. The battery compartment is located in the forearm of the rifle and is accessed by pushing out the front pin located just below the front sight. After the pin is removed (being careful not to lose it!) the hand guard can be removed and the battery installed. Simply reverse order and everything goes back together. Airsoft players love this rifle for the number of diverse uses. This is the newer version of the Ares rifle where they fixed its prior issues. Note: An extended manufacturers warranty is offered with this rifle.
