Possibly do some of the Otter SC Customs stuff to it as well, and shave your striker
Will reduce the kick and increase air efficiency.

From what i've seen, it is just like a spider. Is this just a lower end spider?

Well, it's not a VS1/2/3 or anything like that.
From what I can tell, it's basically an E-99 (I think). Everything that you can do for a Spyder to help it out will also work on this.

It will last about 2 years at most. They break ALL the time.

I've heard this as well. I can't say whether it's true or not, but I too have heard this rumor.

Will Fix Guns For $$

Spyder parts will fit in the gun. How ever the Icons have VERY poor quality parts.
Here is what I have seen over the years with just Icon guns,
Bolts fly out the back of the gun, both while running the crono at the field and on the field.
Grip frames have broken during games (Just running across the feild)
Sear and hammer ware out much quicker then most other guns
Valves leak after a few games.

If you make your own custom parts put this in your sig.

O_O
Maybe you should invest in some Spyder parts...
I know Martix has got some in the B/S/T section.
