Looking at sourcing a lighter and possibly shorter SL8/G36 barrel assembly. Three questions for the communal CGN brain:
1/ are the full-length G36E piston and op rod the same as the SL8 ones, and interchangeable? (Internet seems to indicate that they are)
2/ does the 15.4" G36 CQB barrel assembly take the full-length/full size G36E piston/oprod combo, or the shorter G36K piston/oprod combo? If I buy one of these barrel assemblies I'd like to know whether an SL8 piston system works with it, or if I'll need to source something else.
3/ Are the G36K piston/oprod in fact different/shorter than the full-length G36E ones? (Internet indicates they are different , but want to confirm) I know the G36C have a shorter setup, but I'm not 100% sure about the K
Thanks all!
