Hey thanks man ended up getting the ICS one. I posted a picture up on 'what have you bought' if you want a look.

Thanks Happy im almost as excited now to get a loadout setup as I am to start testing the gun out!

Hi everyone I finally settled on my first AEG and picked it up earlier. I grabbed a ICS GSG-522 (trusty MP5 to me) and got a mask while I was at it.

Defintely leaning more towards the MP5 style again now I think because I love pushing objectives all the time. But thank you for letting me know about the CYMA version I have a bunch of mates all getting into airsofting big time too and i'll be sure to let them now as well incase any of them are thinking about it grabbing it. Aside from the ICS MP5 though is their any other makes that I should be checking out for around a 150-200 price range. (Still need to pick up the essentials too and dont plan on cheaping out on eyeware.) Only think I'd be picky about is that I do prefer the adjustable stock version though. Any rails is just icing on the cake!

Actually got to get my hands on a ICS MP5 (not a 100% sure on the exact model) with a retractable stock and top mounted RIS above the main body. Seriously tempted to go and pick it up tomorrow now and just wanted to ask if anyone has heard anything about the brand or how reliable they are? Its just 150 euros but would still like it to last ofc without too much tinkering. Thanks again too for all the advice too its been really useful.

Yeah I think I will ask to get a feel for it even to see if the short style m4s suit me before jumping at anything. The more I look at the MP5 mags the more I see myself just being annoyed with them too. Failing that I think I might go for a G&G of some sort keep seeing positive posts about them on here. Just as long as it aint one of the ones with the front irons merged to the rail cause I cant be bothered with having to remove it! Want it to be ready to rock just out of the box.

Hi everyone just recently started airsofting and im hooked! Have had a fair few sessions now in a local cqb site and just cant get enough of it. Just waiting on my UKARA now and then going to set about heading to a skirmish after I settle on a gun. I was considering a MP5 but my local site recently got a 'CYMA Blackwater M4 CQB' and its seriously tempting me. Would suit the smaller CQB games im mainly playing and give me a bit more reach for when I finally do hit the skirmishes. Would anyone have any experience by chance using that M4? Would it be alright for a beginner? (I've only used their rental AKs and M16s so far. I prefer the slightly more compact feel of the AKs and sights but dam I have got awful luck with their mags so thats put me off them altogether. Budget wise im flexible dont want to go too insane on my first gun though but willing to pay for reliability.) Thanks for any advice and just wanna say the forum is great!
