The G36 doesn't sport a bolt hold-open device, unlike the M16 and others. The thing in the front of the trigger guard is the magazine release catch.

Hmm...wikipedia says otherwise:

"The bolt is automatically locked to the rear when the last round is expended, but the bolt catch can be deactivated. The bolt catch button is located at the forward end of the trigger guard."

I know where the mag catch is, there is a small button inside the trigger guard which is the bolt release.

But perhaps it is standard practice to disable the bolt catch for some reason...?

Hmm...wikipedia says otherwise:

NEVER, i say NEVER use wikipedia for weapon references NEVER !
This should be learned in elementary school xD

The G36 bolt-catch only engages automatically if the last round of a magazine is fired, because the magazin-plate which is pushed up by the magazine-spring pushes up the bolt-catch once there is no cartridge inside anymore. The bolt catch button is used to manually lock the bolt in the rear position if there is no empty magazin inserted into the rifle. It's located at the forward end of the trigger guard.

The bolt catch can be manipulated in a way, that it's doesn't automatically engage by pushing aside a spring inside pistol grip.

So...the same as every other gun that has a bolt catch then...?

This site reckons it has a bolt catch too.

If the aimpoint sight remains the same, me thinks germans wont do good in CQB because it blocks a huge part of the screen. I said remains the same cuz m4 aimpoint used to block a big part of the screen too.

its like it is in reality .... or do you mean you would look through it from so far away?!

[wolfstriked]

^^I think they should leave distance alone and just make the viewable part of the CQB sight as big as the next circle.But then again they could leave it as is making this weapon great when scoped and not so great when using the CQB sight for gameplay reasons.

photobucket epic fail, cant see the pics now, gogo imageshack!

[Heskey]

Can't see photos! =[

[Amok@ndy]

[Excavus]

Hey Chuc, looks like you have to upgrade to pro today!

[DankE_SPB]

images are fine for me

most likely due to those images being cached
photobucket has a limit of bandwidth, after which it redirects to "bandwidth exceeded, upgrade to pro"

[Chuc]

Anyone wanna help me upgrade to pro?

[dbzao]

Ah Chuc fails.... it's in the instructions for posting highlights to not use photobucket for that reason. :S
