"I've had this thing for about a year and a half now and I gotta say even stock this thing is a cut above the rest. Solid internals and fairly good compression, the only bad thing is the air nozzle which kind of ruins the compression but if you put an o-ring in it you're good to go, stock hop is decent but I prefer the r-hop (for obvious reasons) What's really great about it is you really only need to spend 50-75 dollars to get this gun shooting like a laser.

"This gun is definitely worth it. i got it on sale for 300$ and let me tell you this thing is a complete beast. it shreds through trees and brush like i was hoping it would without dropping. It could be used as a sniper or LMG because of its external features (ex: fully adjustable bipod, back grip for prone, comfortable handguard, flip up shoulder mount for stability) although the iron sights arent great, it could easily be replaced with a susat scope or a conversion for a regular rail. overall, its worth the price.
pros:
strong externals
great accuracy
great power
suprisingly good range
adjustable fps
good ROF
feels realistic
kinda heavy (pro or con)
shoulder mount
durable bipod
badass looking
easy to disassemble
great battery placement
cons:
sights arent great (get a susat to complete the sniper role)
drum mags would be uncomfortable (get a fat mag)

"This gun is fantastic! Just tested it yesterday in a game and it was perfect! It is a very solid gun, pretty close to the real thing! I just loved it! The only cons are that there are no rails, and aftermarket rails for this gun are very expensive (but maybe it is possible to drill some rails in the hand guard, since it has a VERY strong material) but that's all!

"A question to an owner! Does this have a thread underneath the flash hider cause i think it would look sick with a silencer. Just wondering.g if there is a thread let me know

"Ok, I got this gun yesterday and I fired one mag through it do far. And I must say holy crap this thing is amazing. The range and accuracy are impeccable. I have to say out of the maybe 20 guns I've owned this is the best feeling and shooting gun I've ever shot!

"Overall this gun is an excellent gun that i do recomend buying.
Pros-
Great Accuracy(easy target around 150-175 ft)
Adjustable FPS(3 settings)
Solidly Built
Easy Disassembly
Weight(con for some)
Cons-
For me the re-assembly was slightly difficult the first time
Bc it is a bullpup the motor is right next to your ear but not a big deal
Note-This gun does not come with a battery but the one i bought(9.6v 2300 mah works flawlessly, it is recomended in the description of the gun)
For the price, this gun is an excellent buy and one of the best bullpup aegs out there

"Just got this gun today. I love it. I swear its to the point now that I won't even buy a AEG unless ICS makes it. And I promise you I have owned them all. KWA, CA, JG, King Arms, on & on. From the insides to the outside, they are the best feeling/shooting guns on the market.
This gun is very tight tolerance, extra secure. It's solid as hell... everything metal, good metal. Anyone who says that barrel length isn't that much of a difference maker in airsoft, well.... they have never shot a "machine" or "tool" like this beast.
You must be of solid upper body and mobility, and need to adjust to your basic weapon proficiency to use this gun, which is a definite pro, as it only enhances the realism, milsim level of muscle memory to essentially be training with the real thing. So yea, you need to understand a countersniping / DMR role to be comfortable with a bullpup light machine gun. I paired this gun with a 11.1v , 2300mah, 12c Firefox lipo, right out of the box, and it has been running flawless, and smooth as silk. I'm sure it could handle more, but I adjusted to high spring setting, and it shoots great, no need for upgrades . 5 Stars !

"Love this gun. Fires solid, easy take down, sounds mean. Ive sniped from 200+' through brush and pulled head shots. Only issue is the top rail, it is thinner than the standard so you cant just drop any optic on it. I ended up drilling out a standard rail so I could put my illuminated scope with a small riser on it. People have told me that they have taken other routes to avoid me, if they think I'm on the left they go right just because of this rifle. Would buy it again in a heartbeat.

"I got this gun for my birthday from my girl friend on a Thursday, went to a game the next day didn't fix the hop up, just pulled right out of the box and it did great. Everybody there wanted to hold and feel the weight of the gun it is heavier but not that bad anybody can use it. I didn't have a battery i had to use a friends battery it was a 8.4v and was struggling but once i got a larger battery later on game day the gun was amazing took down five people in a game.
I LOVE THIS GUN!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THIS GUN!!!!!!!!

"This gun is awesome! It is accurate, has good range and decent rate of fire.
Pros:
-Compact, it's the same size as my mp5 with the stock fully extended.
-Everything is metal, except the check rest, pistol grip and hand-guard, which are nylon fiber.
-Bullpup design, compact weapon but longer barrel.
-Uses M4/M16 mags.
-Adjustable FPS
-Easy to take apart
Cons:
-The top rail is 19mm not the standard 20mm. You will need to get an adapter(which they sell on this site) or buy a SUSAT scope.
-A bit heavy, but you don't notice it when your playing with it.
-Odd size inner barrel
Other notes: It will fit a standard mini-type battery.

"I have had this gun for 3 months now and still shoots fine. i love it! out on the field people know me as the longshoter since i hit people at 250 ft plus acturatly. i would suggest getting a 9.6 small type with it so it shoots a bit faster. also use only .25s with this gun or you shoot to inaccuerate.
Pros:
Nice look, no one else were im at has one!
great fps, changable
super long range, i once consdered puting a sniper scope on it
lightish weight for a lmg, if ya carrying it around for more than 6 hours it gets a bit heavy but thats not a problem for me
cons:
only one: the gear box is right by your left ear so it a bit loud but if you are in a war and you were a mask this should not be a problem
overall i woud highly recomend this gun to all but qcb'ers since the barrel is long
great gun ICS! and way to go Evike for having it!

"This AEG is the best purchase I have ever made from this site. I have had much experience with different airsoft guns, from SMGs to LMGs, and I must say that this is one of the very best! It isn't too long, it isn't too short (thanks to the revolutionary bull-pup design), it extremely accurate, it has adjustable power, and is overall a very sexy rifle. In the U.S. this is a very rare gun to see on the field, and gets lots of looks. However, not so much in Scotland, England, or Ireland (for obvious reasons). You can always count on ICS on making quality guns, and the L85/L86 series surely proves that. Every-time I fire this thing, it feels like a cougar is ripping from under me, tearing down everything I aim at. Although the best feature on this thing is the adjustable power, in which you have to to open up the gear box (which is easily done, thanks to ICS's system) and re-adjust the piston, making it right for universally every field. The only thing that I found lacking in this deal was a battery. No proplem, just But don't take my word for it, study up, and I guarantee that you will find that people love it.
PROS:
Adjustable FPS
Great Sights
Beautiful Construction
Accurate Fire
Accurate Range
Accurate Markings
Bull-Pup (Well, depends on your preference)
Surprisingly Light
Strong Bi-Pod
Powerful Bark
Powerful Bite
CONS:
No battery
Slightly confusing battery placement
A little bit back heavy
Price is pretty high
If you are thinking about getting this rifle, do it, It is worth every penny. You won't be disappointed.

"This gun is AMAZING! For $350 you are getting a ton more than you are paying. This gun is like an assault rifle (because you can use it in place of an m16 or ak47 and it will do fine), sniper rifle (because the barrel length is so long that with a good susat scope this gun will get you accurate to about 250 feet), and light machine gun all in one. The select fire is excellent, except occasionally it doesn't work, but you can fix that by just switching to auto and shooting for a bit. Auto is incredible, I got mine to about 16 rps. Like they show in the video you can change the fps by the pin system in the gearbox, and it helps a lot. It is a bit heavy, but on the upside considering it is a light machine gun 9 pounds is nothing.
Pros
-Great rate of fire
-All metal and plastic is high quality
-Accurate
-Great range and fps
-Iron sight is okay
-Comes with good bipod
-Worth a lot more than $350
-For those of you who have m4, m16s your mags are what this gun uses (m4 style)
Cons
-A bit heavy, but with a sling your fine. Plus for a light machine gun, your not getting a huge weight life from an m249 or m60
-Rear grip wobbles, not a big problem though
So ya if you have the money this gun is a great investment, very nice job ICS.

"What I love about this weapon is its ease of getting to the internals. The spring is easy to change out. You can actually alter the spring to 3 settings so if my L85 is too hot one day i can adjust it lower. The electric motor is easy to get too. Lastly none of the Pins that allow my access to the internals can be taken off the weapon making it impossible to lose them.
Pros: Has a real weight feel to it (although it is about 2 1/2 lbs lighter then the real steel). Like all bull pups you get a much longer barrel without have a super long weapon. Magazines are the standard M4/M16 instead of harder to get AUG/FAMAS. Easy to work on internals.
Cons: No standard RIS, because of this for night games I tape a sight to the handle. The sights use a SUSAT type (an adapter for the sight rail may be purchased online).
Conclusion: As of now I must say I love this Carbine. I would reccomend this weapon for anyone who wants a Carbine that isn't usually scene on the field.
