JG AK Beta + ICS AK74 Metal Body?

hey im wondering if i can get a jg ak beta and put the metal body from an ics ak74 on it
the ics ak parts im getting looks like theres the stock, metal receiver, front reciever, and the metal top cover

if its possible id like to put the metal receiver and front receiver on the jg beta and keep the betas top cover, barrel + front sight retainer and handguards. and doesnt matter which stock

it would be nice to know if the parts are going to work together ahead of time so im not like wtf crap when i have them

I think its possible, however i would personally reccommend you get a King Arms metal body instead.

To my knowledge the ICS receivers are great they can handle the ICS bolt which is something an Element receiver cant

will the ak47's bolt assembly/battery tray fit on the ak74 reciever? thats my main concern. i have a feeling i may need to get one of those ics bolts for on it along with a 74 pistol grip since im not sure what all might be in with those parts underneath things

The body wont fit a TM front end. It will slide in but you won't be able to attach it properly. Perhaps you could modify the ICS front end (if you have one) to accept the JG outer barrel and grips.

yea thats one of the things i was wondering. if you saw my "lucky me" thread in as media it shows bout everything that i have comin. theres the ak74 front part in there. i thought maybe id be able to take the jgs barrel out and put it in the ics's front

itll be nice when i actually have these things in my hands to test with my spare ak47 body parts

if all else fails i can always take the metal receiver and front set off my kraken for on the jg beta and put the ics parts together on the kraken. im sure theres ways around things to make this work
