Dont listen to any of the reviews that diss (under-rate) this gun.
ICS has gona above and beyond their previous standards with this particular model.
The STOCK reinforced internals allow many upgrades to be made without replacing every single component in the gearbox. The EG3000 motor will pull an M120 spring just fine, IF provided w/ the right power supply.
Every other reveiw here says the ROF is Average.... Well, STOP USING 8.4 Volt batts! The gun is upgraded at the factory to allow a more pawerful battery, the STOCK 16 gage wiring will let the bigger battery run to it's full potential! This gun shoots a mind-blowing 1200-1300 RPM with a 9.6v 3000mah Battery. Combined w/ an m120 spring, you will be shooting at 1000RPM with 420FPS on .2g BB's (For all you CYMA and UTG lovers im sorry that your guns couldn't handle the m120 spring and 9.6V Battery) Total upgrade cost: 16$ for the spring, and 26$ for the Battery.

Also, the CYMA and UTG are a great buy (I own the CYMA), however, their internals are bad because there is NO room for any upgrades. SO, for 120$ (about) you are STUCK with a gun that shoots 320FPS (maybe..) and at MAX 700RPM. If your are a beginner, go for it, but I personally am dissapointed that i did not get the ICS AK74 first.

In conclusion:
This gun is GREAT for 7 reasons:
1. Soo much metal for the Price (it is heavy!)
2. Looks f'in awsome.
3. Upgradable.
4. Internals are TOUGH! (Has metal Bushings STOCK) CYMA has plastic/nylon
5. Supports larger battery w/o upgrades.
6. 2 Hi caps (cant go wrong there)
7. LONG range.

This gun is BAD for reasons:
1. HEAVY
2. Not good for CQB (I tried)
3. HEAVY
4. Hicaps will have trouble feeding after about 8 clips (the springs wear out)

Hope this was helpful
