Default German rifles are hot

especially the assault rifle G36. As German media repeatedly reported now over the past weeks, the rifle gets easily very hot - and then (according to internal tests by the Bundeswehr with 89 rifles so far) the spreading of bullets becomes so wide that even at 200 meters range the effective combating against enemies is no longer possible. Ongoing, longer fire fights are impossible with this rifle, it is said. The BW says operations in such situations were seriously in jeopardy.

Now I think that any rifle, pistol, gun becomes hot when firing many rounds in a short period of time.

I wonder to what degree other contemporary assault rifles are effected by this? Anyone knowing what the standards are?
