The G36 .22LR Has Arrived – Heckler & Koch’s Most Affordable Rifle Yet
Heckler & Koch USA has released a new rifle that everyone should be able to afford without a sweat. With an MSRP of just $679, and chambered in one of the cheapest calibers available, the new G36 .22LR offers an affordable way to experience the iconic HK design, making it perfect for budget-conscious shooters, trainers, and plinkers alike.
Heckler & Koch @ TFB:
HK has once again teamed up with Umarex of Germany to deliver a realistic rimfire version, where many components, including the handguard, sight rail, and stock, are compatible with the original G36. The G36 .22LR maintains the legendary look and feel of its full-sized counterpart, but sadly (or rather luckily) the original optics aren’t included.
Below: The magazine is the first giveaway that this G36 is not chambered in 5.56 NATO, but overall it seems that they did a good job.
Here’s how Heckler & Koch USA describes the G36 .22LR:
“Since its adoption by the German Bundeswehr in 1997 the iconic G36 has set the standard that modern rifles continue to emulate. From its ability to file with a folded stock, to modular furniture, short-throw selector, and trail-blazing use of polymer, the combat-proven G36 continues to serve today, protecting freedom across NATO.
Many of the components are compatible with the original G36 including the handguard, sight rail, and stock. With the same legendary look and feel of the original, the G36 .22 offers a high quality and reliable rimfire rifle for fun, competition, plinking, or as a sub-caliber trainer.”
The G36 .22 LR ships with a variety of magazines depending on your state, and you can buy more for 40.99 USD each, in a variety of 10, 20 or 30 rounds.

If this style doesn’t fit you, remember the MP5 .22 LR Rifle is also available.
