1. I like Wild West they have cool inventory and always excellent to talk to on the phone.
2. G36s are mythical black rifles despite German forces abandoning them and is one of the few toys that our American friends cannot get down south.
3. Its a great option to get in on this without spending $12K+ for an otherwise 'original' G36E with full HK factory warranty.
4. Will probably, maybe, hold value over time but likely not an investment grade rifle over a factory built one.
And I will still drool and try to shoot it if a range neighbour ever shows up with one.

It's a part rifle made from genuine factory parts, minus the bolt head and barrel. If all parts are made to spec, then if assembled, rifle should be to spec, and therefore is pretty much a G36. And yes, I bought one. Maybe I'm a fool, but i"m happy with my purchase.
Barrel is a wear item anyways. Looking at importing a genuine bolt head. Might get the genuine barrel just to be "perfect". Even if 200 units came in, 200 units across Canada isn't a lot. Cool iconic collectors gun.
Maybe...
I wonder if they'll sell me one without the barrel and bolt head? lol
