OberFeldwebel Inquisitor Brock OberFeldwebel Inquisitor Brock Freak_090 Inquisitor Brock Because they are pretty much the same gun. They both have the same buffer spring in the stock, both have the same loading action, etc. The G3 was based directly off the Cetme. From what I've seen, the only differences are the sights and magazines. Apparently, CETME mags work with G3s, but not the other way around. Nope, the G3 mags work with the Cetme. And you can even use the G3 Sights if you replace the entire sight base on the Cetme. Wow. I knew that one was the copy of the other but, I didn't know that they were practically clones. I heard that the G3 Mags don't work on them as well. But you know for sure that they do? I've read conflicting reports of both, but I've read from people who've done it themselves that it does work. Ah excellent. It makes me wonder what they had to gain from lying. Well, more of a reason to get that permit and buy one. 3nodding ... I just need more money. It probably just didn't work for them.

Yeah I suppose that's it. Was it this thread that someone said something about Spanish ones with curved magazines?

I dunno, I heard something about some makes having curved, or slightly curved, mags or mag wells that made it impossible to use the straight mags from the G3. Oh here we go! It was on Surplusrifleforum. Quote: Some of the Century receivers were designed to accept the curved Spanish CETME magazines and will not accept the straight G3 magazines because of the curve of the rear wall of the mag well.
