I got my hands on the JG G36C today, so I was able to compare it directly to my TM G36C. The TM gun seems to weight a little more, and it feels a little more sturdy, but that aside, the only big difference was the lack of trades. There were a few obvious seam-lines when compared to the TM, but nothing major. One note-worthy item is the colours. On the TM G36C, the charging handle, ejection port cover, and bolt-release (I believe it is) are all a light grey, whereas these pieces are black on the JG. Also, the fire indicator icons on the JG are more orange than red, as they are on the TM G36C.
Performance-wise, it shoots hard, fast, and accurately, and if you're into the high-caps, you can't go wrong, since they're standard with JG. The JG magazines and TM magazines will also clip together without issue. I did notice that the JG's stock swivel was much stiffer than mine, but it was brand new and had never been used, so I can't say whether it is more stable than the TM's, or if mine was just loose from being used.
Overall, I'd recommend it, especially for the $400 price-tag vs. TM's $600 G36C. I still like the TM better, but if price is a factor, the JG won't disappoint, as long as the small details aren't important to you.
Great gun!
