Indeed.  And just to add more comedic value, the precise moment the video stopped playing, the postman stuffed envelopes through my letterbox.

Yeah, you guessed it... the credit card bills  ;)
I ditched my credit card years ago, pre-airsoft addiction. As I'm looking to improve my comms game, may be time to rethink ?? 

 
I will not buckle, staying resolute in the barrage of credit car...oh look, Klarna! 

 
Why, PayPal, I would like time to pay.
They really do have our best interests at heart, don't they?

And as I was typing that message, UPS dropped this off. Irony.

And yes, I'm quite prepared for all the Novritsch hate and for how the unit is flimsy af compared to Exfog, etc, etc. I just want to be able to see!

Mines been great actually. In actual fact, that type of goggle (Pyramex are the OEM) do amazingly well on their own for fogging, but the Novritsch antifog thingy has worked superbly for e.g. CQB, and the magnetic interface between the goggle insert and the tubes works really well.

That's good to hear! I'm an absolute sweat monster, even before I begin, and it seems my son is following suit. 

I've used my issued Sawfly, Bolle glasses and goggles and currently use Bloc, all of which fog, so this was a desperate gamble ?

I'm sure you've seen the YouTube vids (especially the Exfog dude getting massively emotional!) highlighting the flimsy case, but my sone will wear his in a pouch on his helmet, and I'm going to botch fit some sort of pouch (tape and cable ties probably) to my boonie. 

Appreciate the feedback on the mag connector too, as I was a little dubious.

Yep - i think actually, the current batch have been reinforced following feedback, so you are probably ok. I keep on meaning to put some velcro and a patch on the back of mine to reinforce it, but never got round to it. Just take care when using the supplied punch to make the hole at the top of the goggles - that you both get it in the right location (i tried to get it as close to the lens as i could for comfort), and that you don't scratch the lense. Masking tape to protect the lens and a wooden block under the rubber goggle surround to elevate it/give a firm surface against which to hammer the punch through worked for me.

Thanks buddy. That's the only bit that concerns me as I'm as subtle as rhino when it comes to using a hammer! 

**update** It went surprisingly well, considering the supplied punch is about as much use as tits on a fish. Now I just need to find a couple of counterweight pouches, and a battery pouch I can bodge onto a boonie.

Hi bud.

Did you get your bloc eyepro at the n.a.e?

I bought a pair from their stand but on the understanding that if they fogged they would have them back and I would have my £50 refunded.

I'm like you and sweat worse than a nun in a cucumber field. 

However they worked and although I played hard they didn't fog?

Regards 

 
Mk23 from Action Hobbies boneyard for £17 - just have to remove the franken-jobbed mp5 stock. 

And a set of 3d print furniture for a Mk23 bought on ebay for £31. 

So gives me something else for an opfor loadout for not a lot of money (once I scrape the glue and stock off)

No, I bought mine a while ago. To be fair, they're the best of the bunch, and when you're moving, they're pretty good. As soon as I stop though it's like being in Jack the Ripper's London, hence the trial with the AFU. 

I did have an issue with the Bloc's where, after a BB strike on the lens at the bridge of the nose, a crack appeared. I contacted them on Insta and their customer service was great. They asked for the lens to be sent back so they could investigate, and replaced it FOC.

This is what happens when cousins like each other too much!

I wondered who bought that abomination!

That's good to know about their CS.  You weren't at the Ascension Research event last weekend were you as someone was talking about their Blocs breaking in the same place.  I'm just wondering how widespread of an issue that is.  But if they sort it should it occur, that's nice to know.  

 
I got the Flecktarn Field Gear about a month ago, ordered up some G3 mag pouches & some more G3 mags which were delivered today (god knows when I'll ever need 8 Hi-caps in a game tho).

All I need is a P38 to pop in the holster & I'm finished...

or maybe a couple of spare mags for it too...

& a mag pouch or 2 for the pistol mags...

& a flecktarn bergen...

& a M1960 helmet...

Oh, bugger...

More inportantly tho... I spent a whopping £7 getting the local alteration shop to move the belt attachments so I can wear this webbing comfortably.
