Practical A.E.G Upgrade 2006

Are CA/ICS guns crappy for upgrade?

Although it is believed by many that AEGs produced by CA and ICS are crap,

based on our experience and observation this is not really the case. Most

importantly, their mechboxes and gears are built strong and solid material (even

stronger than the TMs). Their stock mechboxes and gears can sustain M130 ~

M140 without problem when under proper usage.

However, they do have certain problems in their lineups. The plastic nozzle,

tappet plate and safety cover found in the ICS MP5s are very easy to break even

at M120 + 9.6V. On the other hand, it has been reported by many airsoft

technicians that the positioning of gears are inconsistent and inaccurate in many

CA mechboxes.
