Airsoft glow-in-the-dark tracers

[creanzworld17]

I credit my work based off this thread by sightfx, otherwise, i never would've thought to do it. http://laserpointerforums.com/f51/make-your-airsoft-tracer-ready-blu-ray-44775.html

I have a Thompson M1A1, 1000rd drum. I put my BR inside the drum (perfect fit for everything BTW) and wired it to the driver (it is presently running at 125ma, but only temporarily. I will later change it to about 60ish ma.) Like sightfx said, a video of it really doesn't do its justice it at all. It is basically like a star wars blaster that shoots red, except this shoots green. It really is sweet, i must say. The input runs from a 7.2v to 9.6v rechargeable pack.

The pics are pretty much self-explanatory. Connect the dots

P.S. How do i put pictures inside my post, so it shows up its normal size? So you don't have to click on them.

is the paint GID??

If yes, I bet the "splat" looks awesome.

Oh yes, definitely worth your time to make. I'd suggest the BR insdead of LED's. The UV index of the BR is great on the glow in the dark bb's. Awesome effect

Again..How do i put pictures inside my posts, so it shows up its normal size? So you don't have to click on them as above
