[QUOTE=Kid]YEAH! That's what I thought, haha, so I bought one.
BUT there is a couple catches...

-Red tip, quick paint or strip.
-Trade marks are that of ICS, not Olympic Arms. It's because their supplier is American.

So im about 80 percent sure that i will get the m4 from this site. But ive been seeing everyone with this scope on their m4 what do u need to purchase to install this scope?(sorry again for stupidity)

And one last question does the SRC come with a metal body too?

I don't know if you've looked at it but when looking at M4 series weapons I favored the new Classic Army guns. Something more to consider. Other than that I think ICS looks not that great (the foregrip is like something out of my darkest nightmares). So well, I'd probably go for TM over ICS.

OK, first, about the stripping... I didn't try to scrape it off, nor strip it with any stripper, although it is said to be on there good, so it may take brake cleaner to take it off. I just sprayed it.

With a scope... haha, a red dot? NONE of the guns come with a red dot. They just bought them seperately. Most red dot sites will fit directly on the rail.

SRC does not have a metal body... many say it is crap, many say it is ok.

Any reason why? Just the $10 foregrip? (Yes. it does look shiny) Just pick up a new one... or better, a RAS.

save your money. you don't need a scope for the m4. use the money that you would have spent on a scope to buy a battery or extra mags, you know the things that you really need. the only guns i have that have scopes on them is my spr and my m700. for guns that shoot less than 450 fps it really is a waste. a good aimpoint or rds is a different matter and they have their uses even for cqb, but the best aiming device is still your sights.

No problem at all. Happy to help out.
Actually, the best place to get a good quality scope for about $75 to $150 is definately eBay. Just give ACOG/Red Dot/Aimpoint/RDS a go on there and find one you like.

Make sure that they'll fit on a weaver rail, that's standard for most, so you won't have a problem with this.

Also, he is right, a scope is not useful, the Aimpoint, etc. will be quite useful.
It's a real hell trying to see the sites in the night.
Last bit I can help you today, good night.

The weaver rail is under the carrying handle, litterly under, the carrying handle can be removed... the handle is above the reciever, the reciever is the part the magazine is loaded into.

Weaver Rail

Here is an example of an Aimpoint (replica, the real ones are about 500)

Can you see the mount? It needs one like that or with the same part at the bottom anyway.



Now that I'm reminded by Cortexburn, YES, that spring release is awesome, and split gearbox? Woo hoo! Easy spring changes without caring about the damn gears and such moving!

I like the split mechbox features of the ICS, spring release feature...I enjoyed my C15 when I had it...I'd get another ICS but I would also be prepared to dump some cash into internals.

First picture looks like an M4 with carry handle mount, RDS and socom silencer

Second pic looks like an M4 with an RDS on the flat top rail.

Third pic looks like an M4 with full stock, SIR and a GRS OPS silencer.

SRC does make full metal AEGs. The ones on Canadianairsoft.ca are the plastic versions.
