I love Bifrosts; they make it so much easier to identify targets.

In what seems to be a right of passage in the airsoft world, I have grown to hate with a passion the spectre of fogging. Being a little unfit, quite fat and therefore prone to producing vast quantities of heat and moisture, it has driven me to try and find my own solution much as I imagine many others have too. My somewhat unique difference is that I wear glasses as in ESS ICE ballistic glasses and not goggles as many others do, this has meant that all the solutions that I've seen are tailored to those and not glasses. I also don't run a helmet of any kind just a DPM bucket hat so I found myself even farther from convention. Many things got an audition, from the 50p antifog wipes in the shop at AP (not terrible but very short lasting) to buying a battery powered fish tank pump and some tubing (chinesium crap and failed badly). Now, many will no doubt recognise Novritsch as a marmite figure but I noticed he had the catchily named 'anti fog unit' available, this seemed to offfer an attachment that was usually placed on goggles and magnetically snapped into the tube allowing the hat to come off but the eye pro stays on. It was at that moment I had a bit of an A-TEAM moment, if this piece could be bonded in the right place maybe it could be adapted for glasses? The pictures below will hopefully demonstrate where I went with this, the velcro is simply stapled and double sided taped into place while the adapter got bonded onto the glasses with a smidge of 2 part 3M Scotchweld that definitely didn't come from work at all. Ever. The upshot is that as I place the hat on my head the tubes and the adaptor 'finds' the one on the glasses and very satisfyingly snaps into them. It looked and felt ok but did it work? Yes, surprisingly, my recent visit to Apocalypse with their marathons games was a good test and the battery lasted all day even though the indicator light showed red it kept going. Even if it didn't I could have used a power bank to top it up. Just a little bit of hopefully useful info for you all if you use glasses like me. Cheers!

Easier to spot a player with a Bifrost than it is to spot the Groom on his stag doo 😂😂

nice idea. I went a different route and added fans to the side of the glasses. No bulky box or tubes as they run directly off a USB battery pack. A 2000mAh lasts about 2 days.

I've a Bifrost, from a tracer perspective you're looking at red or green BBs. It's the muzzle flash that's RGB etc and it illuminates any BB's / gasses as they leave the barrel but your BB will be either red or green. What a tracer is doing is subjecting your BB to UV light to activate the elements in the BB that make it glow, the colour is down to the BB itself. It's doing this as it the BB passes through the unit. You've then got the LED's at the front of your unit, which is the muzzle flash. This is independent of the tracer and is just a bit of fun really and is where you can choose colours etc.

I'm sure I have a spare E&C upper brand new around, yours for £20 if I can find it and if you want it?

Agreed. They act like a nice big sign saying shoot here

This is why I take my chrono to site to compare it to the site readings.

I did think it would but once the hat is pulled onto my fat head it stays there, the hoses move quite a bit too being unattached past where they pass through the material

Find one that isn't yours nor the site's, you'll have a pretty good measure of which one is busted. If you're in the market for a new one, then you may look at the Acetech 5000, it's essentially the good ol' Xcortech mk3200 but in a different casing and with a few more functions.

Did you chrono on 0.28s at home? Some guns do lose an awful lot of energy by switching to heavier BBs

I've done something very similar, but with the exfog and for sniping with a full-face veil. https://www.instagram.com/p/C4atDp7t3gB/?igsh=MWhvMThnb2d2OXNkaQ== I've got a couple of different Setups, be it for glasses or goggles, with different mounting styles. https://www.instagram.com/p/C7wodvjtlL2/?igsh=eWpoZWN5NjJpY2lq

Interesting! Does the hat not pull the glasses out of place though? Seeing as it's more flexible than a helmet?

When your muzzle needs an app you know its a beast lol

As fas as I’m aware, tracer beebs only come in either red or green, they are illuminated by uv led’s in the tracer unit I think the Bifrost has rgb flash at the exit allowing you lgbt colours at the muzzle (doesn’t do rainbow coloured tracer effect though)

I think it's just multi coloured flame effect from the front facing leds.

I also have an old SA-A03, they were OEM'd by E&C so their receivers should fit ok. https://www.firesupport.uk/replacement-parts.html?manufacturer=943&product_types=755

'Cyber Ninja' loadout complete and tested 😁. It got a bit warm, but folks seemed to enjoy it. I'm glad to report the extra Heroshark eye pro wasn't needed as the mask held up to some intense CQB action. I'm still not gambling, but it was surprising it didn't shatter.

Also the same in my WE glock and it's great. I never bothered to get the casing because of RATechs random QC.

Fully open to taking the thing apart - was going to upgrade the compression and do the usual ak2m4 goodies like I did with the UTR & M733 that I'm currently working on, just wanted a second opinion on the things that it could be (appreciate the input on the profile post and here btw) so I could order them without ordering extra things I might not need in the end. Will give that a try though - moving the gears manually to see where it gets stuck might indicate what's actually causing the lock-up

A video would be useful so that we can listen to the screech. That would be a good starting point.

Something new! https://www.airsoftworld.net/g-g-levar-15-gas-airsoft-rifle.html

Its an older G+G mp5 AEG. Yeah, i've seen the gbb pistols i have cause havoc with the chrono. too close and its snorting gas, giving all sorts of weirdness off. I shall endeavour to find a new one and test them back to back, i think.

There are many factors Try two chronos against each other for multiple shots The angle and proximity of a chronograph can get different results If you’re using a gas based system then changes can occur with ambient temperature and also the rate of fire / length of refresh time between shots Different types of chrono can get different results, even two of the same type/model may show a different result Chronographs try to measure the velocity of distance vs time, and where applicable Airsoft chronographs add the extra step of converting velocity to energy based on the entered weight / mass

Obliterated, available on Netflix. The premise: a super-special-spy-forces team catches a badman with a suitcase nuke in Las Vegas, goes partying to celebrate, then are suddenly called back on duty when it turns out the real snuke is still out there. The execution: balls-and-cocks-and-boobs to the wall gloriously unapologetic drink-and-drug fuelled amoral uncensored scatological fun that has a great time playing with the genre tropes and character archetypes, edging fnar on parody. I mean, main guy is called "Chad McNight", and their inexperienced Tech Girl is "Maya Lerner". I put off watching this for ages because it looked so dumb that I assumed I'd hate it, but it turns out that "Don't think about it, just crack open a beer or four and enjoy it with us" is the whole point. Does it make sense? Not a bit. Is it funny? Eh, sort of. Can the cast act? Just barely, but wow, they're committed to it, and easy on the eye. Is the gunplay or fighting realistic in any way? Oh, no, not at all. But if sub-plots like "We need to find some hookers, because they'll have meth to wake up Bomb Guy from a ketamine coma" appeals, fill your boobs. I mean, boots.

Yours might be off a bit, theirs might be off a bit, temperature changes things. Stuff can happen do a gun, if you drop t maybe or stuff like that. Did you chrono it again at home?

the inside of a toilet roll (cardboard) placed on the rear mount has worked perfect cant believe something so simple and i didnt think of it

Outstanding, that magnetic attachment looks like a great idea. Much better than my DIY fan goggles solutions where I just shove the tube in a hole cut in the side. Oh, even better, the Ex-Fog couplers can be bought separately, for anyone wanting to bodge up their own system. https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/exfog-universal-magnetic-goggle-adapters-set-of-2

Top stuff - good to see it adapted for use with a hat and different glasses than the standard goggles. I have had good service from my gen 1 nov antifog too.

Checkout this BADBOY...

Yep, bought the VFC OPS 3rd model suppressor from them back in April. No problems, happy to use them again.

Until the import fees and customs charges hit 😂 Fingers crossed you don’t get any though!

I have been eyeing to get a PKM for a while now. I saw they were discontinued for some time. SO I am very pleased I snatched this for new at an arguably low retail cost : )

I was in a restaurant earlier when a group of electricians came in. The waiter asked if they wanted a starter. But they went straight for the mains.

I've started hitting the prints since starting this sport and also love 3D Printing. Started off with a Molle Case for my phone looked at some on Cult and thingiverse and well I have access to bigger toys so went with a 3D printed case & a Titnaium protective plate on the front with an adjustable Aluminium carrier to clip it to the molle band, I'll probably tweak the rear plate to take some weight out of it its fairly overkill at the moment lol, still in the trial and error stage though so tweaks to follow. Have also printed BB canisters, funnels, speed loader adapters all the usual stuff, batter boxex, pistal case, and probably over 50 of the banger grenades :).

Lonex flash mags. They fit pretty much everything. I prefer the metal stanag ones because they also happen to fit in EVERY M4/5.56 pouch out there, whereas the polymer ones don't.

There are few things I don’t compromise on one is tyres on my car and the other is eye pro. I would say spend as much as you can afford on decent eye pro. We can’t grow them back and fogging is much preferred to blindness, might sound dramatic but it I wouldn’t risk it. I use military eye pro and been hit in the glasses a fair few times and glad I spent the dosh.

My decisively ugly pistol has reached a new level of hideous. Behold. 🤪

Scientists have discovered a method for dealing with dyslexia. It's music to my arse!

Nice collection but it's missing a lovely M9. 😉

Well, that's bloody embarrassing.

Peasant That’s a hunting horn, not a bugle

Same game as the Captain, pics by Daniel Wiltshire, going back to my og team's camo. Had a great day with great team mates. And those accusations of war crimes are ludicrous.

Ah Daves Custom Scalpers at it again
