I think many people are used to Ian field striping the guns on his channel, so they want a similar experience here, also keep in mind that some of us will never have access to any kind of gun as the reach of both channels is international.
Man.. seems like i was the only one that liked that. I loved the gun, and i wanted it to be perfect. I wanted a Clean, elegant Workhorse, and god, it was. It never failed, and it was so sexy. Too bad some dipshits were shit talking about it, the G36 is a really really good gun in many aspects. I wouldnt want some shitty G3 or 416 or really any other gun like some always beg for.
@The Real Slim Shady Not really. But when you are in the military especially when in basic training. There is a lot cleaning for multiple reasons. First, you use the rifle a lot and second your drill instructor will always find a dirty spot in your gun.🤣
I used this in my mandatory military service with the Gebirgsjäger in 2004/2005. The gas piston is only part that actually gets dirty shooting and needs regular cleaning. Of cause the NCO will also insist on the inside of the handguard being spotless clean.
@@alekszanuzdaev8115 I am not sure if you ever served in the military. "Needs cleaning" and "you are orderd to clean it" does not nesseccaryly overlap, especially during boot camp.
I really don't want to be the party pooper, but that's not the correct way to fieldstrip the G36. I only can tell you my point of view from how it's done in the german army. First of all, if you checking the gun for an empty chamber, you pull the cocking handle fully backwards and then you press the little button above the trigger to catch the action. If the chamber is empty, you grabbing the handle, pulling it a little bit backwards till the action is released and let it slide forward without letting it snap. Now the gun is still cocked, so you put the safety on E, point the gun 1m infront of you to to ground and release the bolt. I think your gun was still cocked as you pulled out the recoil spring, that's why it pushed out so fast. Plus in the field, we don't dismantle the bolt carrier for cleaning purpose. We just clean the whole thing. I'm sorry for my bad english.
He is not a German soldier, so he can do this however he wants. The Recoil Spring has nothing to do with the cocked hammer. Anyhow, the way you described it is correct for the Sicherheitsüberprüfung , thumbs up
Field stripping has nothing to do with the safety check, which is what you described. The way he did it was mostly correct, even from a Bundeswehr perspective, the descriptions too, he even checked the status of the gun before working on it. For a video of pure, accessible education he did everything properly and even threw in that thing with checking the chamber, which is an excellent addition and a vital process when handling ANY kind of gun, showing off his expertise. Now, of course, in a combat or combat-like situation this is naturally not the proper process. Before firing, you check basic weapon functions (safety status, sights, magazine, action, flash hider), upon picking up an unknown weapon, you check the safety status, chamber status, magazine status, common sense status. But yes, field-stripping the action itself is a poor idea, hence it's generally advised against due to the obvious risks of small, vital parts going missing, the fact it's not that maintenance-intensive and also it's annoying.
A series into field stripping various firearms is a neat idea. Allows the viewer to see the inner workings of the firearm and can give be a guide to those who own those firearms.
This is, without a doubt, something i'd love to see more of. Ian does a lot of good similar content on FW, but most of his disassemblies are esoteric or historical things, and I really don't see a lot of things like a SCAR or G36 going through the same process. Disassemblies of such platforms while also getting an Inrange commentary would absolutely scratch an itch or two. Edit: the Lage SMG you have would be super interesting to me for a video like this, Karl. That thing is something of a unicorn in its own right. :P
Interesting to see the difference between Karls and Ians approaches to tearing down a weapon, Karls comes across as an instructional video, while Ians is more of a forensic approach, actually analyzing the design. Both are informative, and thankfully shouldn't detract from the other channels content. I would absolutely welcome more of these.
Ever since I got my airsoft G36, I was really impressed with how modular and simple, yet effective the construction is. It translates quite well to good quality airsoft guns (especially gas blowback ones) with how they're put together. Like the magazine well, I also have the part needed to convert it to using normal M4 magazines. Looks pretty funky since the G36 mags are a lot wider, so you get a not-so-nice looking transition for the magazine. But it's really damn cool to see how similar they are. Makes a big difference to me, since I've always been interested in firearms since I was little, but I'd never see myself buying one and going through all the requirements to own one (and pay fees, expensive ammo, overall expensive guns, etc.)
Here is a fun fact, the 4th hole in the stock is to place the gas piston and to scrape off excess carbon. The glass fibers in the polymer actually act as an abrasive..
Thank you. These kinds of videos are immensely helpful when I research firearms for a potential project of my own. And since I have no access to firearms as a European. The information you've provided grants a lot of insight into a lot of the broader but not so much talked about details like the simple magazine conversion option. Thank you.

This is one of the most elegantly simple fiend strips I’ve ever seen. Absolutely beautiful design. I would’ve fallen in love with the G36 if it just had a better charging handle, rail mounting system, and handguard. Very good stuff!!
Currently putting together a CETME-C(G3) and I can both see the improvements that have been done as well as simplifications. I can defietly appreciate this version of the original system.
It is a great learning experience when you can see something that we don’t have access to. Thanks as always for the awesome content and keep up the great work
Very interesting. The bolt and pin looked similar to my C8. But the piston reminded me of my old C1. Very interesting to see you strip it down. Thank you. (Note: the old NCO left in me, from before I commissioned from the ranks, was screaming "lay your parts left to right!" LOL!)
The cleaning chain may be convenient for field cleaning, but a few links can easily get stuck in the bolt lug recesses in front of the chamber if you're not careful, and be an absolute nightmare to get out.
10/10 LOVE IT!!! Please, my friend, continue with this field strip (and servicing) video. Seeing as Tacticool Girlfriend tends to focus on whole system things like safety and kit, if you covered field stripping and servicing, we'd be golden!
I would love to see the breakdown of anything weird or rare that rolls past the inrangetv camera! I’m a mechanical engineer so the interworkings of each system is almost as much fun as the shooting content. That’s one reason I love forgotten weapons so much
I agree with your thoughts on the BW cleaning kit with the pull chain. I have an older one I use on a PTR-91, it works pretty well, and they are (for now) pretty cheap.
Those cleaning chains are a bitch and a half to get out when they get canted, though, and they're slowly being phased out by AR-15 style cleaning kits with cleaning rods
@@Forodir The newer guns (A2 and onwards) actually come with the rod cleaning kit. It's just the army does not want you to use them, because they could break. Cleaning was always easier and quicker with them... EXCEPT for the situations where your just wanna clean the barell without disassembly, which is possible with the chains. (And its the same thing for the bipods. Every full size G36 comes with a bipod, but they are very rarely used, because they could break. Which leads to soldiers not being used to them and ... breaking them.)
One of the first field strip videos you ever provided and its of course the only gun i ever had my hands on :P Personally, I would like to see more. Its always interesting how different guns are designed.
Very well done! And no parts lost or left over. Maybe a video on cleaning and lubing the gun when it get really dirty, when you get home not in the field?
I say keep doing field strips for the odd & interesting rifles you get your hands on. It's interesting to see how soldiers would have stripped these rifles for cleaning in the field, especially on rifles I will likely never own personally. And having a record of this up online is never a bad idea since we never know what's in store for the future.
Slightly surprised the main spring just sort of clips in with the stock folded or does the rear fire control pin also hold it in place It looks like its in the realm of possibility for that main spring to become un clicked in while the stock is folded , as always great design so simple with tool free easy cleaning
Please have a look at 1:43: ua-cam.com/video/9zunI4xzd68/v-deo.html There you'll see the hole at the bottom for the pin, which holds spring assembly in place when the stock is folded.
ok ok ok, everyone is thinking it, ill ask.... when do we get to see a field strip off between Ian and Karl? facing each other, sitting opposite sides of a table, each given an M1 Garand... GO!
1:24 "You don't take this apart, that would be a terrible idea" Well, if you buy an after-market trigger, you'll have to. Anyways, it's not hard to take it apart. I did mine with just a screwdriver and hammer and it was pretty simple.

Do this kind of stuff more often, this is really interesting.
Those holes for the pins are so useful
That little added convenience that just makes sense
Why are there 4 holes?
@@jackpopinski8330 Ze German OCD, that way there are 2 holes per side.
@@jackpopinski8330 the very first adopted G36 has 4 pins. the fourth were underneath the handguard in my memories
No kidding, that’s brilliant simplicity
You can also use the piston tip to disassemble the bolt carrier group
Yep. When you don't want to do it with a round of 5.56 and you have neither a metal rod nor a Universal Disassembly Pen.
You can but you shouldn't
When you have a unique gun, yes, please a field strip would be great. Thanks for these video on the G36.
I loved my G36 as i was in service with the Bundeswehr. But not so much the endless cleaning sessions😅
Absolutely. Especially after a good round of Munitionsvernichtungsschießen (ammunition-dump-shooting to ged easily rid of "old" ammo). BLERK...

I just remembered that we used the nose of the gas piston to push out the pins holding the bolt in the bolt carrier.
Yupp,...it is meant for that. That is no coincidence the pin has that diameter.
