:: ICS ::

Galil & L85

MP5 and L85 in 2 halves

looks like ICS conceived a special gearbox for the L85

lower part of the L85 gearbox

new ICS M4 product line

looks like they also developed a new gearbox for m4's
and its inside the buffer tube, so the extra space might be used for a blow-back system ? who knows.

some other ICS prototypes

the long-awaited ICS SIG product line

:: G&G ::

G&G 416

:: Magpul / Systema ::

Magpul AEG, with Systema stuff inside !





no release dates nor prices known for any of those products, so don't ask

thanks to StBourrin, Turret, & Rascasse for being there and taking pictures




- maybe create an "airsoft news" forum category ? ^_^

Ssame as lol.

Those M4s actually look nice. Are blow back AEGs the new in thing? I hope so.

Fallschirmjager

no masada yet...bugger....

nice g&g 416 tho..its either that or the dboys 416...not normally bothered about trades but in the 416 its seems to be just wrong without them...

weeder

i thought the masada idea was scrapped?

Fallschirmjager

oh dont say that!!!! jeasus i had really set my heart on one....bugger, double drat and curses....

Gatling

The Masada is no more but rejoyce the masada development and sales have been sold to Bushmaster who have already made some refinements to the original package known as the Bushmaster ACR (adaptive combat rifle)

the one i want is the Magpul PDR and FMG 9 seriously the coolest gun ever made

heyjay14

I could have swarn he meant +1 joule being sold by the thread title.....:o

Captain Chaos

Is is just me or does that L85 look wrong compared to the G&G and Star versions.

heyjay14

no i think its just u, looks fine to me.......:)

davvowl

no data on the muzzle energy of those things yet, so lets hope its 1J

about the ICS M4 gearbox : after looking into it i figured out that its a regular v2 gearbox but in 2 halves (a bit like the pro-win blue gearbox, if you know what i mean) and the upper part is pulled back on the pictures, thats it.
so yeah, no blowback.

about the masada : rumour says magpul pts still has a masada airsoft project going on, but its just a rumour (well, most of the info about that masada asg comes from rumours anyway, so nobody can tell for sure...(

be aware that it is not the same dimensions as a normal v2 thought

davvowl

yeah i guess it's only gonna be compatible with those specific ICS M4's

Masada
