Does anybody have any good photos of the Diemaco C8FTHB or "Special Forces Weapon" carbine? I'm hoping Kevin_B or somebody else can help me out. Also, what is the difference between the two carbines? Is it just the modular hand guards (that I assume are Knights RAS) on the "Special Forces Weapon"? I really don't see any differences, other than that.

Thank you LordStoner, I'm hoping somebody has better pictures than Diemaco's website.

The C8FTHB still retains the 14.5" bbl but is thick and has a incredibly stupid weight on it to mount the M203A1 - since Diemaco did not suscribe to the M4 bbl profile

The SFW has a 16" bbl for the MV issues etc with the 14.5 - More and more users were requesting this configuration

Kevin, thanks for the photos. How does the HK AG36 compare with the M203? It certianly looks lighter.

It looks like the one the lads from Hereford got.

Ariel - correct...


Troy - the Diemaco M203 mount is the worse possible design

I have 0 experience firing the AG36
It seems from handling to be a better platform - but in truth the KAC AGL I found much better to handle.
