Decisions, decisions
« on: January 10, 2016, 09:32:28 PM »
Hey all! Ive been looking at first guns to buy for a bit now, and have had the Ics cxp15 recommended a ton of times. What are yalls thoughts on that gun? Should i get plastic or metal? My budget is about 250ish, so more recommendations are great! I have little knowlege about airsoft guns or how to upgrade/fix them, so something sturdy and good out of the box is a must,  haha. Thanks!!!

If you can find one of these for sale that would be ideal. It's a great gun out of the box that you can easily upgrade down the road. The internals are really good.

ICS's plastic is a nylon fiber similar to the older CA and Ares G36's.  I prefer them to the metal ones as the delta ring threading is more forgiving to non-spec delta rings, and the upper gearbox slides in and out easier with the plastic.

I just bought a CXP APE. I've heard nothing but good things about ICS lately.
