Dunno, I love my BKO, its the only gun I have ever gotten 3 bags out of a 68/45 with... :headbang: I love their quality, its second to agd. Shameless plug: the BKO is for sale in the bst thread because I need a new mag frame.

Yeah, been wondering about them myself. One guy i get air and paint from has a black promaster, was thinking about picking it up because i don't have any electro guns.

ICD sucks....i should know im a life long ICD user

they take way too much work and there is no innovation coming from them

the B2K is superior to the Promaster but they stopped further development of it

also the tolerances and finish of ICD guns is horrible

and i hate the way the bolt pushes into the barrel and the placement of the feedneck


well see how the Bushviper turns out.....its not gonna be a B2K at all though

the BV is what the B2K would be if ICD actually stuck with the platform

but it will be more for the hardcore B2K enthusiast

I followed the link but it still doesn't really explain anything. I guess you have to register then ask to be added to the forum I think it said. I'm lazy so I guess i won't see it as I don't feel like joining another forum. Oh well I'm not a big fan of ICD after owning several of thier products. Maybe this will be better since it appears to be non related to the factory.

well its a possible project....starting with the B2K as the start and changing every problem we have had with the gun and also with tweaks to really make it a nice poppet marker

and the person who is gonna make it...or might make it was the R&D guy for ICD
he also made a trayless kit for the B2K

basically its all the small tweaks we were proposing to the b2k design
if the BV ever comes out it will be hard for me to not buy one

the b2k was an ok design....cant really mess up a poppet, it had a cheep price and a solid design

BUT there were some STUPID details in that design....nothing too bad just stuff that made it tricky to do what we wanted to do to the gun, like trayless mods and others stuff

if it were possibe to remove the problems or improve it to another design then i would say that it would compete with any high end poppet


but with lack of B2K users now it might not happen

I agree it was a pretty good design. I have a B2K4 and it's alright. Like you said it needs some improvements and one of those is the crappy detents. Every time I've tried to use mine it's chopped unless I fire super slow. Even with good paint..fresh batteries etc still chops. So I replaced it with an 05 Alias still not perfect but alot better than what i had.

yeah those oring detents SUCKS!!!!
thank goodness my b2ks were older and still used the ball detents or used spyder detents
