Found out TommyBuilt did Featureless G36 style rifles...

i like the ergos personally. There are some quirks like the charging handle slot, depending on the rail/sight setup can be a tad difficult to grasp to charge the weapon. One trick is to push the charging handle to the opposite side and pull back on the carrier itself. It is quicker than pulling the lever to get a grasp to charge it. I really like forward charging handles and i find this layout, for a reciprocating charging handle better than the scar. For a 90s ambi design, I think it was pretty clever. There are several stock options from relatively cheap to ridiculous. I prefer the c length. It is about an inch shorter than the k/e stock. There are two designs of the telescoping stocks. But the prices are rediculous. A cheek riser for my face is really nice. There is a factory c stock that does have the removeable cheek riser that does pop up on the secondary market occasionally. I am supprised tom or gsg hasnt made a clone or retrofit kit myself. Tom makes a ar fcg and grip module. You can use your favorite flavor of ar grip and ar fcg. I wasnt able to get a drop in to fit around the bho but i only tried one. Tom reccomends geissele and it works. I suggest a flat faced trigger as a curved may seem a bit short since your trigger finger will be contacting the lower portion of the trigger and not cupped in the center. The ar fcg rides high relative to the grip in order to function in the g36. Worthy compromise as the g36 trigger is not great. I have felt much better milspec ar triggers. It functions though.
In general, hk triggers have yet to impress me. The sl8 has a modified g36 fcg which is nice and the g36 grip module can be modified to drop it in.

Thanks, Sicarius. That detail makes all the difference. Does the AR grip module change the appearance much?

It does look different. Much of it because the ar fcg is nearly half the thickness of the g36 fcg. When using the ar safety, there is a recessed area on both sides where the safety is. The trigger and hammer portion sit up in the receiver so that part is unseen. The incorporation of the ar grip is the obvious difference. For years, people have been wanting to use their ar grip, better trigger options and 922r compliance without sacrificing their quality german parts for sub par us parts. This was the answer. It does look different but not totally out of place. You can be the judge.

You can see the gap where the trigger seems short in the trigger well. Flat trigger helps some but the big difference is the feel as the contact surface for your finger will ride lower on the trigger shoe.

Great info. I will put myself on a Back-In-Stock notification.
