Metal, I don't Mil-sim to carry around a fake fealing gun.  But of course I only have a G36, which the real gun isn't actually metal, its Nylon fiber.

I have held a H&K g36c, they are light weight, and the stock is hard to fold you have to give it a good hit to fold it.

Metal, metal, and more metal.  Everything on the inside and outside of my gun is metal.  I'd rather have carbon fiber, but I like metal.

That's the stuff right there... lol....

Yeah metal body guns are the way to go. Laser engraved trades, flat color vs slightly shiney plastic, no creaking. Yeah it's definatly worth the weight. The exception is when the real steel is plastic, then you wouldn't want metal.

I completely understand the weight of a G36, I just like the metal on guns when the real steel one does.

like the glock for example. any "full metal version" will still have a plastic grip because thats the construction of the real steel. The same can be said for the AUG

Minus the mag of course ;)

I prefer metal over plastic.
However, if you plunk your money in a cheap metal slide for you GBB, gas efficiency can decrese.
