Ah, the difference is creation. The M416 was much more haphazardly thrown together compared to the G36. Still a decent weapon but the rate of fire on the later is smoother, I personally think. I've never fired an M416 but that is completely Heckler-Koch's fault due to their fucked up business practices of late. I'm guessing an M4 with a rotating bolt wouldn't have the same feel as the G36 though but it may.vrbtny said:Didn't they shove that Rotating bolt in a M4 and call it the M416. I've heard good things about that rifle, and it looks dead shmexy. Never liked the look of the G36, although I do like the functionality of the Polymer-translucent magazine.jawakiller said:I personally would love to own a Heckler-Koch HK G36 assault rifle. If you have no idea what that is... Fucking awesome. Google that shit. Sure the rounds are smaller but the rotating bolt on this kitten is gorgeous. Yeah, fuck the AK. Go HK. Them Germans don't fuck around.
But considering those things are almost double the price of a normal assault rifle, I probably won't be getting one any time soon. The G36 is actually cheaper. Like a whole grand cheaper.
I wouldn't buy the original though. I would probably get the G36C or the G36K. Not only do they both look way better but the tactical barrel and mountings on the weapon's sights are really nice.
