+1 one to that. Plus having the spring in the separate upper makes the lower SO much easier. Closing up a mechbox, especially wiht a stiff spring, is always a challenge.
And of course, there's the versatility of being able to swap to different uppers and upper mechboxes for outdoor and CQB. You can switch over a full-lenth 400 fps M16 to a sub-350 fps carbine in a matter of a couple of minutes with an ICS.
Only got to ever try out 1 ICS (Arnold's) and I was most impressed by it all around. I wouldn't hesitate to get one if I wanted another Armalite.
I've never tried an ICS MP5. It doesn't have the same split mechbox design, but still built to the same level of quality, so I wouldn't hesitate to get one of those either.
