Initial Setup

Videos

Each section includes a video. I recommend watching the videos, as there is a lot of information to convey. If you’d prefer to watch on another device, it’s easy to find a playlist with all the videos on YouTube by searching for “briffidi getting started”. If the videos are unavailable, written instructions are included below.

You Will Need

  1. The SW1 and calibration rod.
  2. A compatible smartphone (more below).
  3. Approximately 4,000 (1.35 kg) 4.5 mm (.177 cal) steel BBs.
