I have no fucking idea. Even marushin dropped the 8mm. I hope its the gearbox though.

They are really shooting themselves in the foot.

Did I hear correctly that the mag holds 8 bbs? And it's an AEG? Weird.

Strange world we live in, haha. Even if it was an 8mm mechbox, why so few bbs? I wonder how they would all be fed into the barrel. When I take out any mag I have, usually three or four bbs fall out to the floor.

Hopefully aftermarket magazines will make them 16 rounders or so.

Maybe they invented a revolutionnary mag that loads from the top so that the last 4 BBs are fed by gravity :P

what a deception - why not simply make it 6mm.

I heard the word GAS. I could be wrong.

Probably because the real Garand holds 8 rounds.

8mm bbs for their Garand?

Did they interview the ICS janitor?

I didn't get to the ICS booth yet but when I do I will be sure to tell them that the 8mm fail boat has sailed...

I guess the only logic I could figure out of it. Is that since most 8mm Bb's are heavier. Its making up for the lack of ammo count in power? People would feel it? I dunno.

Supposedly there is rumor on their (ICS) Facebook page (Or perhaps some other site), of a later 6MM model?
Can't find any source, just talk.
