You're missing some stuff with the G3.

The trigger is battle rifle spec. That's what you bought, that's what you get. However, changing that is as simple as pushing out two pins, rotating the selector to 12 o'clock and pulling. That's it and you can install a PSG-1 pack or a cleaned up William's Trigger Specialists pack.

The CETME, which is more accurately discribed as an HK cousin, has the oddly placed selector positions where up is semi. All HKs have up as safe.

The flute brush and chamber face brush make cleaning an HK significantly easier. I won't say it's as easy as a FAL, but certainly easier than the AR design.

Configurations. There is a vast number of configurations for the G3 and derrivatives. You can change the gripframe (and trigger groups), buttstock, and forearm with a push of a few spring loaded pins. What do you have to do to change from a sniper style stock, with adjustable cheekpiece, to a folding/retracting stock on the others?

G3 barrels are also floated.
