[mad212]

right i have 300 quid and i want a decent m4. I either want a china m4 so that i have roughly 200 to trick it out or the whole 300 to get a ics, mauri, ca ect. I want to know what gun to get and what i should add if it doesn't take up my budget. im thinking about magpul stuff. what do you guys think??

Re: what m4 to get??

ICS + new hop rubber IMHO

Re: what m4 to get??

ICS or G&P,

I own the ICS and its the don with the split gearbox, but i've heard equally good things about the G&P, can't go wrong wiht either.

Re: what m4 to get??

King Arms m4a1, £215 shipped.

6.03mm tightbore
reinforced 7mm bearing gearbox
m90 spring
all internals are king arms upgrade parts
legendary KA aftermarket hop
Nylon furniture
Full legal trademarks
Extremely well put together and solid, even the shim job was fantastic
working bolt release which gives you easy access to the hop

Chuck a new hop rubber in and you're golden. Mine fired 341fps out the box.

Clones cant touch this.

Re: what m4 to get?

Which one, g&p or ICS, has the most realistic finish and the most metal content? Or is there any others that top these with regards to realism?

Re: what m4 to get?

my ICS m4 is like 3.2KG (real steel weight with loaded mag i believe).. great quality metal.. reinforced outer barrel.

pretty sure the others have this aswell but the split gearbox design and working forward assist makes maintenance a breeze... you cant really go wrong with any of the RIFS talked about in this thread though

The ICS guns I've seen have looked good, but in all honesty witha £300 budget I'd go G&P by far the best finished M4's on the market, King Arms have great finishes as well and do some really unique armalite based rifles.
If you want to go at the cheaper end of things there seem to be some nice new clone armalites coming out in general from JG etc, their full metal m4 especially looks very interesting.

Hope that helps kindof.
