Thanks for the correction, I'm very fuzzy on the ICS stuff but have run into a retailer that shuns it due to "incompatibilities". On the other hand, I subscribe to the channel of a gun tech on YouTube that has reviewed and fixed hundreds of guns and gave ICS the stamp of approval based on quality (as you seem to be).

I've been doing a lot of learning on V2 mechbox fixing/maintenance/upgrading lately and I'm curious, what parts of the actual mechbox would I have trouble with on ICS in terms of proprietary parts? Are they that big of a deal?

I'm intrigued by some of the stuff I've seen from ICS (the split gearbox, including MOSFET + control units in their newest stuff stock, etc), but still associate them with difficulty in the compatibility area until I learn more.
