I have a Umarex (Ares) G36CV, purchased second-hand. It has been eminently reliable, shoots straight and fast.

As another poster mentioned, you cannot use standard CYMA G36 mags without modification. You can insert them and they will feed, but they will not remain seated in the magazine well and will fall out. I since have bought Ares-brand magazines and they have fed and seated reliably. We have used the Ares high-caps and mid-caps without difficulty. It is actually probably the only gun that I own that has not (yet) had a misfeed/jam at some point.

The gun is stock except the battery connector was modified to Deans and the electric blow-back option was disabled by the previous owner. I have left it disabled as some have commented that it will eventually degrade performance in the internals to leave it on.
