KWA G36C Clearsoft?

[Geoffrey B.]

Hey guys,
So I have been browsing around tonight and I have come across the KWA g36c Or KG36 but in a Clear soft version. Is this gun made by KWA or just a KWA mechbox in it? Also just speculating here but is "High Quality" Cansoft guns getting more poupular in canada or is it just me?

Heres a link to it. https://www.buyairsoft.ca/kwa-g36c.html

Quoted from the website; I've highlighted a few things to save you reading it twice:

The KWA line of Electric Rifles proudly sit atop the upper echelons of quality. The G36C features an adjustable rear sight, foldable skeleton stock, as well as ambidextrous operations (Fire selector switch, Mag release, and Cocking lever). The G36C has stackable mags, which allows you to have multiple mags attached to each other without the use of a mag clamp.

KWA has the toughest internal parts in the air soft industry. These guns come stock with a metal upper receiver, metal ball bearing bushings and a specialized 2GX black gearbox for the Canadian market.

Typical velocity ranges between 360-380 feet per second.





I think it's safe to say it's a KWA gun with a clear lower.

I like KWA, and since the G36 is plastic no matter where you buy it from, I say go for it and camo that bitch.

Cansoft clones are on the rise, and with rise in sales, companies are more inclined to put more money into the guns they produce, so they will be even more desireable to the market, Recently, the KWA and SRC Clearsofts have been shown to be of a reasonably high level of quality, they are not as reliable as a stock TM, but performance will be far better than a "stock" TM, and a TM upgraded to perform equally may break down just as often as these newer high end clones

Something's iffy. All the clearsoft manufacturers clearly promote their transparent receiver lineup on their website and catalogue. KWA does not.

Probably because they're too embarassed about producing halfbreeds.

Yes that would not surpise me if that was the reason. How strong is the lower receiver? It would be a good gun to paint up and its rougley 200$ less than the models in the classifeilds.

It's on CAS's website and they've been out for quite a while. What's iffy about it??

...Of course it's on CAS' website.

However, it's not on KWA's website, while SRC and G&G both displays their cansoft line online and/or in print. On the other hand, ICS does not.

So maybe it is a matter of embarrassment?

I think it's cute how having a clear lower on a gun makes it inferior. The body of an airsoft gun holds almost 0% significance to it's performance. <-- yup that's a period.

It's not the clear that make it inferior. It's the fact that most of them are almost as expensive as their full metal counterparts despite all the bullshit about them being "Canadian legal."

Airsoft was created both to look real and shoot with a moderate energy, those are the two pillars that holds up what airsoft is. If it didn't matter what the guns looked like, you could play with something shaped like a blender that shoots 6mm and wear a clown suit while doing it. You can't really argue against the extreme importance of realism in airsoft without looking silly.

Now, you can debate how those two aspects are split in terms of overall importance, but the fact remains that even if it was 80% performance and 20% external realism (ridiculously lopsided against realism), transparent or tinted is still inferior to fully opaque as far realism goes. You can similarly split hair on how far transparent or tinted degrades realism, but even if it's only half (10% out a possible 20%) you've now ended with only ever getting a maximum possible of 90% for cansoft (while real airsoft can be 100%).

It is in that sense that cansoft will always be inferior to airsoft, especially when you are comparing two guns that are identical except for their colour (or there lack of).

Performance (in almost any and all things) is based on 2 things.

Appearance and function.

If it looks great, then awesome.
If it functions great, double awesome you are good to go.

Clearly you have never broken a clearsoft lower.

I fell on my G&G cansoft, total piece of crap snapped in half, even though the upper was metal.

Switched to full metal, it just can't compare.

For guns like G36s, I guess with a coat of paint, it might feel the same, but not for guns like armalites.

If a G36 lower is plastic anyways what does it being clear matter? You could probably put the clear part off and paint it without much trouble and if non-clear ones are an extra $200.... I could spend 10 hours working on getting it painted and that is still a better deal than me working to make the extra $200.

580$ for a G36C full black? for just the gun? I'd like to see where your getting these prices. you can find packages for cheaper then that
