AEG's / Re: Upgrading...
« on: June 22, 2005, 09:03:40 PM »
Quote from: "Gantaliano Hoff"
Yeah I know,"There's a ton of topics already pertaining to this subject." But none of the one's I searched for could concretly answer my questions.

So: I'm wanting to upgrade my ICS M4, all I really want to do is increase the FPS cause it's already accurate. I'm not sure which spring I should get though, or if I should just buy a kit. If I get a new spring I know'll I'll need new bushings but I need advice on which ones I should get. Or if I should bother upgrading my gat at all.

Please give advice if you have it, or helpfull, previous topics on this would be usefull. Thank you.


A stock ICS M4 will handle a M120 spring--grease the spring really well with Sta-Lube white lilthium grease (you can get this at any auto parts store--and its much better than the Systema or any airsoft brand, much cheaper, and you get more than you'll ever use).  It takes only about 5 minutes to change the spring.

Slide the upper mechbox out; lay it flat with the rear hole to your left, remove all the screws and when taking out the last one, apply some downward pressure onto the mechbox so it doesn't "spring apart,' insert a skinny screw driver or punch into the hole of the mechbox...applying downward pressue, remove the top of the mechbox and then release the spring slowly. Use the same procedure with a screwdriver or puch when inserting your new spring.

The gears and motor won't pull a M130 spring well...you'll end up with a lot of headaches. I don't recommend it unless you're prepared to uprgrade the entire internals.

Wait until your nylon bushings wear out before changing them. 7mm bearings will do a great job. Don't use a battery higher than 9.6V...the ICS wirinig isn't designed for high voltage batteries...they'll corode quickly.

If you want to imporve your rate of fire, change the motor to a TM, Classic Army or Systema. Knock out the tab inside the stock (long screw driver and mallet)  so you can use a large 9.6V battery.

The above recommendation is based on trial and error of messing around with over a dozen ICS M4's.

I am only going to say one thing then I am not reading this thread any more.

It is very clear from the posts, who has had schooling in (or has a firm grasp on) logic and who has not. Anyone versed in logic will avoid the use of absolutes in their argument because they know it negates them completely. Those with the gift are annoyed because they understand that they only have to provide one example in order to negate an absolute position, and continue to do so, without having the other person(s) realize they have been smited.


O.K. I missed the indication that this was a critical thinking discussion? I'll have to lose my sense of humor then. Only a person who spends to much time analyzing life through inductive reasoning would make such a false conclusion. Those who are too critical are socially inept and can't see pass the smoke (rhetorically speaking); therefore, become too conclusive in their assessment...their "right brain dead."

I think it's actually 49%.   [smilie=armata_pdt_18.gif]

Anyway... Can this thread die? The poll could be interesting after a large enough chunk of AA votes, but why didn't anyone read Lasivian's first post? STOP THE FREAKIN FLAMEWAR. I know that some of you kids don't like eachother already. I don't need to hear about it anymore. Take it to PM's, IM's, or just shut the hell up. Practically every post in this thread has been intended to piss someone else off more.

There are lots of ignorant, uneducated, brainwashed hippie liberals in the world.
There are also lots of ignorant, uneducated, brainwashed redneck
conservatives.

These people are not utterly pathetic, wastes of oxygen because of what they believe in. They are because they are ignorant, uneducated, and brainwashed. A lot of people that posted crap in this thread displayed these traits in their posts. The most obvious indicator of a person like this is someone that uses absolutes like "all liberals/conservatives are smelly hippies/rednecks".


Can't believe that at 20 years old you're suffering from generalized anxiety disorder...don't like the thread, don't read the posts...chill, take it for what its worth.

Liberals negate responsibility. Their thinking process is quite puzzling; they don't enjoy confrontation. Therefore, they avoid addressing issues, frequently contradict themselves, and are irrational. They fight for issues other than their own and often those with the issues don't want the libs fightiing for them.  "I'm a lib, I support our troops in Iraq...but not another dime should be spent on our military in Iraq..."

I like liberals, they make great girlfriends....Including the guys"

How to piss of a liberal:

Offer them citizenship
Make them say the Pledge of Allegiance
Make them sing the national anthem
Buy them a gun
Drive a S.U.V.
Park your S.U.V. in their drive way
Step on their crack pipe
Stop funding for their rehab  centers
Spray weed killer on their pot plants
Chop down a tree
Buy a BRAND new home
Take them to church
Actually have kids
Make them take a drug test
Open an I.R.A. account
Pay by credit card
Don't tip
Offer them a job
Actually make them work
Make them pay taxes
Make them serve
Spend your social security check on golf or guns
Play golf all day
Hunt all day
Take them hunting
Walk on their vegetable garden
Tax their petroleum jelly
Boycott their petroleum jelly
Restirct Xanax and Prozac from their perscription drug card
Send them to Guantanamo Bay when they try re entering the U.S.
Kill a terrorist
Buy petroleum/energy stocks
Don't recycle
Use nuclear energy
Make them wear plastic sandals
Cancell their AOL membership
Boycott Algezera News
Cancell their Newsweek
Boycott Volvo
Enroll them in the NRA
Ask for "Plastic" at check out
Make them tell the truth...then tell them what the truth really is...

I seriously resent that.  I'm a liberal... yet I drive an SUV, love guns, have a job (at age 17...), support our troops, go to church, and most of the other bullshit on there too.  So once again... a ignorant conservative generalizes an entire group of people (ya... 50% of america) into one class.

Appluase...


Ignorant? Hmmm...all that you support would make you a conservative... And your ignorance wouldn't allow you to differentiate what  fidicuary conservative and social liberal is. However, you've categorized yourself from your lack of humor.

Since I'm close to selling off all my airsoft guns, I've decided to post pics of them. Would have done this months ago if the circumstances were different
I hated that post.."how much have you spent on airsoft?" You know who you are..LOL

There's probably another 25 guns or more that I didn't take pictures of that are all gone....Crazy as it may seem, think I might have spent over $40,000
 in airsoft guns. It's all relevent isn't it? I've got more expensive vices...the Black Jack tables...[LOL] Ya, so I'm escentric...take care and enjoy.

What?  All that dough on this sh!t and you didn't even make it to Lion Claws?

PSST....none of them work...


PSSST....Any type of a response will only dignify your existence...a waste of my time.

In the picture, are you the one on the left, or right?   Any gun whore is alright with me!   By the way, the mech box I got from you is still running like a watch.


That's great news...let me know if you need anything, I have a ton of stuff...mostly new I want to get rid of. Including 7mm mechboxes w/bearings, System FTK professional kits, steel accessories kits, complete 100% Systema and Guarder & Sytema mechboxes, 6.03mm inner barrels, battery stocks, phantom flash hiders, PEQ battery boxes...you name it, I got it.

I've been running low on money to buy "stuff" and by "stuff", I mean airsoft items.

This crisis has brought me to the thought of getting a job.  However, there's just one more problem to solve.  Where will I work?

That's where I need your help.  I'm looking for recommendations of where I should get a job.  Now, this would be a part time job... afternoons and weekends.  So if you've worked somewhere or are currently working somewhere that you like or enjoy, please, list it.  I'm pretty much open to all kinds of jobs (not, by all I do NOT mean Wal-Mart).  The only location would be Phoenix... I could personally narrow it down from there.

If needed:

Age: 16
Last grade completed: 10th
Previous jobs/activities:  I have no work experience.  However, I am rifle team commander and a class leader in my JROTC battalion so I am not new to working hard.
Days open to work:  Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays afterschool as well as Saturdays and Sundays.



I know this is a rather odd topic nevertheless please take it seriously.  Thank you ahead of time.

P.S. - Has anybody ever worked for Marshall's?  If so, how did you like it?


If you're not afraid of hard work and knocking on doors, you can start your own lawn mowing/aerating  service--that'll pay well, all cash.

Kind of a limited market, majority of people don't have grass in Arizona (at least where I live in Tucson) most people have rock.



LOL...totally slipped my mind. Here's an idea, this may work for you...Join your local Jaycees club. The club is made of young entrepreneurs who can assit you.

LFD wasn't wrong when he said it was a version 3, just a little confused.  After all, it does say that for the ICS guns, even though they were a bit misguiding in calling it a V3 when it was indeed an "improved" V2.  

Let's not get into a pissing contest here over a tiny miscommunication.  You all know the deal now, so lets leave it at that.  Leave the bickering for the schoolyard, and lets keep this informative and productive, shall we?

LFD, with regard to the recon32 statement, I was referring to when you said "you dumb f-u-c-k".  Recon said that exact same phrase (which isn't that common, spelled out like that) several times before being banned like a bitch.  I was not making any accusations, but rather pointing it out to get some perspective.  I'll leave it at that.



LOL, how do you get "banned like a bitch?" Nevermind....

They could avoid the confusion, and refer to their box as a version 2, revision 3.  Since alot of ICS and CA stuff sucks when it comes out, they "revise" them as later verions are released.  In this case, "Version 3" refers to the improved ICS version 2 box.  It's simply a V 2 that's been improved twice.

I know for a fact that MP5s use a version 2 because I once bought a used TM version 2 box that had an MP5 trigger installed.

LFD, your last few posts look an awful lot like something that "recon32/33" guy said.


? I don't see any posts here by recon32/33.
