ICS m4a1 sportline

[Archuth]

Hey there
I am looking into getting the ICS M4a1 plastic bodied version which i believe is there sport-line version, is the only difference between that one and the metal bodied one the actual body or are there more differences? as the prices difference is about 90 pounds, and if anyone does not recommend this at all any other recommendations? i liked this one as zeroone do the spring change for free and i just generally fancy an m4 :P
any help would be Appreciated

Thanks

Archuth

the product cod on zeroone is ICS-42

Yup the only differance is the body, its still tough as rocks though. Mine broke after 1 week its currently being fixed by another retailer but it may of just been a lemon. The week that it was working it worked pretty well and had great range. The accuracy wasnt very good though.

Re: ICS m4a1 sportline

Do you have any idea what broke and yours and if its only the body that is difference it must be good, is it the CA ones that have different internals? thanks keep them coming in

Re: ICS m4a1 sportline

The plastic body version is EXACTLY the same as the metal bodied one (Body being the only difference). If you want you could fit a chinese metal body for less of the cost but it's all up to you. Some find the metal body a tad too aeavy but then again depends on what you are looking at.
Hope that kind of helps

The irony.

Nope you cant ICS M4's/M16's will only work/fit an ICS metal body due to their gearbox design.

Re: ICS m4a1 sportline

The combined cost of adding an ICS metal body later is massive, I think the upper and lower boddies retail seperately at about £65 each on Zeroone (off the top of my head). Could be better just to save up and buy the full metal ICS right off, it's a steal for £230 anyway.

Re: ICS m4a1 sportline

I noticed on your first post you said something about the spring upgrade is free on zeroone, I believe this is only for the metal versions.
I use 9.6v on my M4A1 ris (ICS-22) as stated on the manual. It also comes with a M100 spring as standard. But the plastic ones you'll have to pay to upgrade it to M100. think its £25.

Re: ICS m4a1 sportline

To funky
According to supportingfire, The Barrel Clip came off. The spring was missing from the hop and something else about the Ejectionport? Sounds simple but since im new to inside of the guns i did nothing and just sent it back. It was firing 3 or 4 shots nicley but the one goes out and barley goes past 10 feet at no more than 100FPS

Re: ICS m4a1 sportline

ah yeh i have just noticed you have to pay for an m100 but i will only be needing a 1 joule i think, hmm it doesn't sound so good now, might look out for one of the metal mp5's or something :S
any more input would be great

thanks
