Need to swap out the flashider.. and looks like they're PMAG's which I've never seen used.

Generally UK forces use STANAGs or EMAG's.

May be worth trying to find a way to hide the wires through the RIS too.

Being an ics gun the flash hider is almost impossible to get as its no longer in production.

Finding the mags is equally troublesome especially for a price that is affordable hence the beta project pmags. Believe me i spent a lot of hours hunting both those items lol.

My G&G L85a2 all Gucci'd up, seems that every single piece bar the riser and spectre, have an unconventional way of connecting, just to be difficult

What does eveyone do to fit batteries in? I've got a 1000mah 9.9 LIFE batt in that only just fits, can only get it in by taking the whole gun apart every time, any one come up with a better solution thats not a PEQ box?


Cant upload pictures to forum for some reason

Isn't there loads of space in the back of an ICS? Just re route the wiring into the rear of the body and put a small LIPO in there!

remove the fake gas parts......or get a split cell 7.4v lipo, the really thing saddle/crane style one and slot each cell either side of the gas parts

I put the battery inside the gripod. If you take out the legs, it's about the same size as buffer tube on a M4

Here's my 80'. Started off as an AA R85A1, but over the years it's been modded to look the way it is now. Some of the furniture, Gripod and Mag were sprayed in OD, then weathered, but I was thinking of spraying the black in a Tan/Darkearth??

Oh by the way did you lads see the new updated SA-80A3 variant in the "Combat & Survival" magazine?? I thought it looked gorgeous so I googled further images when I got home. I read It's the improved HK made model to extend it's life to maybe beyond 2025?? I must say it's the best looking model to date, including the UGL version, which can quickly detach leaving just the rifle again.

Right, ready for wet dream time to all who have not seen yet!

My ICS



I know some of you hate seeing an afg on the rifle...but it's just airsoft. I love the look of an afg and eotech on it. Thinking about painting the metal casing of the eotech od green too. The afg and rail ladders are both od green. As you can see they are a different shade to the existing od parts. Not sure if foliage green would have been a better match or not but it doesn't bother me that much.

Side note...the mag is a cheap ares amoeba mid cap - not the more expensive type - and I have found no issues with fitting and feeding like I have read before. Maybe my ICS was slightly different because all my mags fit and feed. (Not thrown many bb's through it though).
