Real FPS of ARES M4 CQC and ICS MP5 SD5?

A1ex Gauthier · February 28th, 2014, 19:31

Hi!

I would like to know if anybody have tested the real .2 BB FPS of these stock guns? I wanna buy one of these two, and need to have a 350- FPS to play. I know the ARES M4 CQC is quick spring change so I'll go with it if ICS MX5 SD5 is 350+ out of the box. Thanks!

What is your source for these rifles? Resellers should be conforming to the 366+fps limitation for import and resale of airsoft guns. Most, if not all, airsoft guns in Canada will be over 366fps stock.

Oh thanks! I did'nt know that whatever the rifle I buy, I'll have to reduce the FPS by changing the spring (To play 350-FPS). So I will take the Ares because of its quick change option. I don't want to disassemble the entier rifle depending outside/inside airsoft fields. Thanks for the info my friend, I'm brand new to this world!

Personally i would avoid ares, they aren't exactly known for having great internals. My tar21 went down(shattered piston) 2nd game. There are many other options with quick spring or easy fps change. Some ics have 2 piece gearbox design(you change out upper for indoor/outdoor play) for example. I have an ics mp5 mx pro and it's pretty decent however mine had selector switch issues...keep looking around, if you have the budget for an ares you can certainly find something else. I would suggest going G&G and if fps too high have it downgraded, should still be less expensive than ares.
