(hope not a duplicate topic, heard first this items from far-east long time ago)


Hope this Galil price lower than KA

Galil's are sexy, especially the wood one

Seriously considering. Why ICS? Because quality Galils at the moment are either:

1) Too expensive, like Avalon.
2) Made of aluminum and expensive, like TSI and King Arms.
3) Noticeably lower quality, like the CYMA/Cybergun.
4) Propietary mag -using, like CYMA and King Armgs.

If this thing eats regular AK mags (mmmm... RK-lookalike), has the typical awesome ICS quality and a nicely made steel body, it's a winner.

I have a bit of a soft spot for the Galil ARM, and the ICS version will certainly go on my shopping list if they carry on their tradition of well made, reliable and well priced guns with the Galil series.

I'd expect this to be around the £300 - £400 mark at the most, although most of the ICS AEGs are sub £300 and full metal so it could even be a bit lower

Hopefully ICS will incorporate some innovative gearbox features into this rifle. Their SIG 55X series was kind of lackluster after their extremely innovative L85 design.

nice marking....wow functional ambi switch

Not true... My friend bought a CYMA a few days back, brand new. I lent him some ak midcaps to try in the gun. They work flawlessly.

Yea, I love lying. My friend definately didn't get his mags to fit into his. He actually broke the feed nozzle in Berget, when he tried to ram a regular magazine in. The magazine well is too long. Of course, it was one of the first ones, so the current models could have been altered to accept regular mags.

loving the look of this im really getting into AK's since my VFC so this should do nicely AND it comes with its own alarm system

Lol, I didn't mean to come off as accusatory

It would seem that something has changed though. because they fit quite easily, fed fine but were wobbly....

Anyone notice how the firing selector moves when firing and how loose the right-side selector is?

What kind of AK mags is he using?

I have also the CYMA Galil since 3 months now, and CYMA AK-74 style mags don't fit properly since the front "flange" (don't know how to call it) is wider than the one in original Galil mag, so it needs to be modified, otherwise won't fit.

Regards.

Interesting how the ICS has a semi auto receiver though.

.. do.. want.

yea i was like... when i saw that but hopefully it'll get fixed by the release

Very niiiice!

I was never a big fan of ICS myself, but they sure have been coming out with some interesting and innovative products lately. The Galil looks great (especially the wood handguard version) and the functional grip selector switch just makes it all the more awesome. And knowing ICS I'm willing to bet the price will be a fair bit cheaper than King Arms as well. Not holding out a whole lot of hope for stellar internal quality though

Don't know much about Galils and AK's, but that mag looks like a long stanag.

learn more thru google...
Yes they look like stanag, Galil can be also converted using an adapter to fit Stanag magz from m16 in RS.

to quote Dale Hawkins (that Horrible movie Navy SEALs) - "Now that's the best god damn idea I've heard all day..."

Someone must do a magwell adaptor for airsoft....

TSI already has a magwell adapter, problem is that its quite expensive.

I did a quick search and couldn't find the adaptor for sale - any idea on a source? My thinking is that if it's cheaper than buying 10+ mags (at $36 each + shipping) it still might be worth it...

I'm sure if there's a TSI adapter somewhere someone will clone it in due course with the recent rise in popularioty of the galil, I used to love it, but I don't like folding stocls so its a no no for me XD

Here is a link for the stanag adapter. It is the same dimensions as a Marui AK mag. http://www.tsiarmories.com/acc.html

I actually really like the all steel clone of inokatsu that I bought from gunnerairsoft. It is a really nice ARM kit. Works with AK mags flawlessly, and has great fit and finish.

King Arms (partially) also of steel. We reviewed KA ARM. Good quality.

ICS is very nice. Internals better than KA. Markings very good. But stock has wrong angle and selector is moving while shooting. You can see it on youtube. Probably problems with two selector system. Cyma and CG Galils... lower standard.

The KA's receiver is aluminum, the ICS is steel I think.

BTW only the TSI seems has the scope dovetail cut at the proper angle, that makes a difference for me as I have some mounts I use.

On my KA, the scopes point down instead of parrallel to the bore, not so with my TSI.

Yes, receiver is aluminium, sorry, I wasn't precise. I ment that in KA are not only alu parts.
I hope ICS receiver is full steel. Because earlier thay made thin stiil body on alu base or even on plastic base.



BTW

Are You using real mounts? Maybe KA mount will be better fit to their replica, when they release it.

Yes, I'm using real mounts. I have a RS Galil (semi-auto) so I had the mounts already.

Trilux mount on my KA. It works, but I have to have the scope at max elevation:



My 30mm mounts fits perfectly on my TSI MAR, but points too low on my KA.




Both mounts work perfectly on my RS Galil.

Common problem. Real Parts not often fit to replicas. Probably KA mount will be higher than real one.

It's the angle that the dovetail is cut in the receiver that's the problem.



Also, some RS parts do fit the KA. Hand guards, hand guard retainers, night sights to name a few.

They should have cut the dovetail at the right angle, IMHO anyway.

Ok. I got it. I hope that their mount will have angle correct to replica body cut, not like real one. And optic/scope will be horizontal. I'm going to buy that mount base.

OHHHH RA Tech shows off ICS Galil

Both selectors functional. Gun looks friggin sweet.

It comes with 3 mags and a sling? Dayum!

I wonder if any mid/lowcaps r gonna be released for it, otherwise I hope the KA mags fit well...!
