That's a free-float handguard and one-piece barrel. Fixes the old issue with both CA, STAR and early ARES G36s where the handguard actually moves the barrel (usually 2-piece for the K and full length).
Realistic disassembly means that if ARES releases the barrels and handguard separately, you can go between C-K-E/nil in a matter of minutes and still have benefit from a stable barrel. Older G36s wouldn't have allowed that change nearly as easily due to the disassembly by tool required to get to the hopup unit.
Upper receiver is now one-piece. Fixes the older CA G36 issue where the upper receiver can split apart slightly.
Improved stock design, now the rear receiver / stock interface looks like the real steel.
Locking bolt cover, though the latest CA36s are suppose to have that, too.
Improved optics. The 3.5x scope I've seen has sufficient eye relief for PB goggles and crisp visual. Apparently the red dot is improved, too, but I haven't seen that yet. Personally, if the real steel G36 red dot is not that great, I never really expect the airsoft one to be any thing more than a novelty.
Still worried about blowback? Quick disassembly. One screw. Reassemble. Blowback disabled. Or so I was told, should've remembered to look when I had one apart at Shot.
Throw in quick spring change and Micro Switch, same as all other ARES AEGs.
The CA G36 is indeed tried and true, but the ARES G36 is still unabashedly better.
