To quote that dude whom I quoted: "[b]esides the super space age (plastic) polymer that they use, what make a G36 so special and ahead of it's time ? Nothing! It uses Armalite / Stoner technology wrapped in plastic."

To be fair, though, at least the G36 has an ambidextrous charging handle. The one thing I've never liked about the AR-18 is its (right side-only) charging handle.
