what is the difference between canadian and european version ?

Canadian version is the European version (-4 and -5). The other version, US version (-1 and -6), was different to comply with local state laws and had a single stack magazine and a special bolt to accommodate that mag.

Same with MR series of HK rifles. Ours is the euro version too, MR223 and MR308, US one is a special version to comply with US regs, MR556 and MR762.
 
Its a bull barrel so its possible to have it threaded. As for the mags, I installed a 416 magwell to get away from the proprietary mags (bolt catch still works as well). Out of all the ammo (including milsurp) I've fed my SL8-5, I've never had any misfire issues. Everyone has different experiences I guess.

Yep, the sustained fire you can generate with those evil 5 round mags is sure to affect the rifle - where did they put that face palm thing again?

That is like saying buying an expensive sports car but knowing the car's engine will shut off during long period @ 140KM/Hr and tell yourself that car is perfectly fine in Canada since you always obey the speed limit and the highest speed limit in Canada is 120KM/Hr.

btw... I found the thing you are looking for f:P:
 
These are good guns.

If you get them too hot they'll melt. If you get an AK-47 too hot the foregrip will catch fire; If you get an AR-15 too hot the gas tube will melt and sag / explode.

As for breaking in extreme cold, I recommend not using this gun on Pluto.

Otherwise it's fine. Fairly accurate, really reliable (mine was fine with SA mulsurp and anything else I put in it), easy to clean, and modifiable with enough patience and money.

And yes I owned one.
 
The falsehoods being perpetuated about the G36 in this thread are the same old "HK hate" that has been floating around ever since the US State Dept first made the importation of military-configuration HK firearms difficult for our American cousins to the South. The "Melty and inaccurate" conjecture is an outright lie that has been exhaustively debunked by no less than MG Jesus himself. If the people repeating this myth put nearly as much time searching for the truth as they do regurgitating this garbage, the lie would finally be put to bed. As for breakage in cold weather? That is a new one that I had not heard before today. Possibly based on the C7/C8 Thermold magazine failures of years gone by, this additional myth regarding the G3 is just that - unsubstantiated rumour-mongering. By all means, show me the data concerning the G36 and cold-weather failures, if you can.

Enough with the lies and innuendo regarding the G36 platform. It is a fine service rifle that performs very well within its defined functional parameters. Everything to the contrary has been exhaustively refuted in on-line testing. Some of you really need to update you biases and find a new "villain" to hate on....
