ICS based CQBR - parts build

[Darthwhite8]

Hi All

I have an ICS based CQBR that I've put together from parts & bits - some high end & some not - so not really sure what it's worth...

ICS Upper and lower recievers, stock tube & associated bits
ICS upper and lower gearboxes (it's a split gearbox gun, obviously)
Perun v2 mosfet (the optical one)
SHS Piston, Cylinder, Pistonhead
ICS Gears
ADV Brushless high speed motor
ICS Hop unit (plastic rotary one)
Spena arms inner barrel
Spena arms outer barrel, RIS system, front sightpost, flashhider etc
Crane stock (no idea what brand)

Shoots really well largly thanks too the mosfet and brushless motor, with the current spring it's shooting around 320fps with a 4-5fps variation. Fit and finish is fine; it's made of misc & leftover parts so not an immculate wallhanger museum piece but not big cracks or scratches.

I assembled it mid last year and have used it a couple of times, I just have a large enough collection of guns that I use more often. If it's not worth very much I'll hang onto it & use it as a loaner but if it's worth selling I probably will

As a shopping list of individual new parts it would probably add up too £4-500ish, but I'm not expecting anything close too that for it.

Thoughts welcome

Cheers

Frankly, you'll need to do better than a stock image. The first rule of selling or prospecting a sale is demonstrating what you want to sell is in your possession and ready to go. Even if your gun has no major cracks or scratches, people still have an expectation to see the product. Its cosmetic condition is also important for appraising its value.

Except for the mosfet, the parts you've bought won't add much value as they presumably replaced the originals. If you have the original motor, you may get more restoring the gun with it and selling the ADV motor separately. You'll probably just see your standard 60-70% of retail on the base ICS gun plus a percentage of the Perun mosfet. Upgraded guns don't have the best return on what was put into them unless the work was carried out by a reputable tech or company.
