I bought mine last Sat. and its been great. It fits my 19/32 holster and i carry it alot now. I have shot 185's to 230's in GD's and GS's most in +P and some S&B 230 FMJ all went flawless. I have nothing but good to say about the 36.
I am glad that there is a G36 appreciation thread on this forum. I have owned and carried this pistol nearly everywhere I have gone for the last seven years. It carries well and shoots every time I pull the trigger.
Probably tomorrow. I had one many years ago and it seemed to me that I needed to put Pearce +0s on the mags but I'm not sure why now. At any rate I think I have one in my near future. - 'ole joe

My hands are so tiny that I can actually hold the G36 with all four fingers on the grip. Just barely, but I can.
Even so, I very much prefer the Pearce "+0" extensions.
They just feel better and to my eye they look much better, for what that's worth.

I now have a brand new 36 and have ordered some ammo so I can get it to the range. I have a Blade Tech IWB left over from my old 36, and my 19 MTAC slide fits it perfectly. I'm really anxious to get it going. If I have no problems then I'll get a couple more mags from Greg Cote LLC Mags and four Pearce +0s. I spent a lot of time in Thin to Win last night checking how the new 36s are performing and you all convinced me that all is OK. Thanks. - 'ole joe
I sold my original one yrs ago, and bought my OD in August. I worked up some light and hotter loads for it in the Thin To Win room. Be careful with the hotter ones; they throw the brass about twenty feet; probably are +P.
Had no problems of any kind; recoil is fine. Primers not flattened; ejected brass looks fine. Got some of these loads from Canyon Man on Thin To Win.
Use with caution.
Don't buy too many SWC's; mine won't eject the fired case, as the rim hits the rim of the next SWC in the top of the mag.
I use RN, plated, Remingtons, XTP's, commercial SD loads, all with no problems.
Enjoy your gun, Dee.

I like my g36. It is the right caliber and reliable and the 6 + 1 does not scare me if I have a spare mag in a pocket . The gun is just a great pistol that is easy to shoot and easy to hide. What else do you need ????

Purchased my G36 a little over a year ago, and it is far and away my main CCW-with Pearce +0). I know this as I jot down which one I carry each day and save the calenders (have since 1983!) The next Glock that gets toted in quantity is the G39, and in the summer, the Ruger LCP. HNY!
I have had my most recent 36 owned for about two months. I just received a Archangel AIWB holster that I have had since yesterday so I am adjusting to this form of carry.
I bought my G36 quite awhile ago ... 2001, as I recall.
I've always had affection for small .45's, including two Colt Officers Models, both of which were flawed enough I dumped them eventually.
The G36, however, met my expectations and more.
It's as reliable as my 1911 but lighter and much more concealable.
It's as durable as the Rock of Gibraltar.
In my Crossbreed Supertuck, I literally forget sometimes it's there. But if I need it ...
I bought it as a carry gun years before my state allowed legal carry. I hedged my bets and for once got it right. :supergrin:
