Six month ago I mentioned that these are coming and today there are more details and some great news. Here are photos of the upcoming G36 civilian rifle, shown here with optional accessories.
There will be 4 models with different barrel length:
G36C (compact) - 228mm
G36K (kurz - short) - 330mm
G36S (sporter) - 420mm
G37L (long) - 480mm
Now the real interesting part is that these recently were approved by the German authorities for civilian sales. That means these will not only be available in USA but also worldwide. Since Canada gets our HKs directly from Germany this is good news, as we will not have to import from USA with their ITAR restriction but will get these through the regular import channels.
UPDATE: Another photo of the new G36 design, this one is a select fire version but otherwise identical to the semi-auto G36 to be released.
The rifle has a new barrel mounting system that addresses loss of accuracy due to overheating the original G36 rifle experienced as was reported by German army soldiers.
