GATE have confirmed that the opening production run leaves them in early November 2026, and the precise day is still unfixed. Placing an order now holds a unit from that run in your name, and we will confirm a firm despatch date the moment GATE commit to one. Should the run slip, you hear it from us first.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"background:#edfaf1;border-left:4px solid #27ae60;padding:12px 16px;border-radius:0 6px 6px 0;margin:0 0 16px;font-size:13px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color:#1a6b3a;\"\u003eGATE SOL — Smart Tracer and Chronograph.\u003c\/strong\u003e A 14mm CCW tracer unit with a chronograph built into it, developed by GATE with ACETECH. It lights BBs, fires a multicolour muzzle flash and measures the velocity of every shot as it leaves the barrel — and it reports all of it to the GCS app.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eUntil now, knowing your muzzle velocity meant finding the site chrono, queuing behind six other people and taking three shots over a sensor. The SOL puts that sensor permanently on the end of the barrel. It reads every shot you take, all day, and keeps the numbers. That changes what tuning means: instead of adjusting a spring or a regulator and hoping, you can see what the change actually did across a magazine rather than across three rounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt works on its own. Fit it, charge it, and you get tracer illumination, a multicolour muzzle flash and live chronograph readings in the GCS app without any other GATE hardware in the gun. Pair it with a compatible ASTER II or TITAN II and four more things unlock: tracer and muzzle flash become assignable to selector positions, so you can switch the tracer off for full-auto and on for semi without reaching for your phone; the unit warns you when the gun has fired without a BB in it; you can set an FPS ceiling with an optional block on further firing if a shot goes over; and on an HPA setup it will calibrate valve timing automatically from its own measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe FPS lockout is the feature worth thinking about if you run a gun near a site limit. Most limits are enforced by a marshal with a chrono at the start of the day, which tells you nothing about what the gun is doing after two hours of gas cooling or a battery sagging. A ceiling set in software, measured at the muzzle on every shot, is a different kind of safety net — and it is the gun stopping itself rather than someone pulling you off the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVelocity measurement is rated below 400 m\/s with 1% accuracy at 100 m\/s, and it will keep up with continuous fire to 35 rounds per second. The body is 32mm across and 90mm long, weighs 85.3g without the adapter, and runs a built-in 450mAh Li-ion cell charged over USB-C in about two and a half hours. GATE quote up to 24,000 activations per charge on tracer alone, or about 12,000 with the muzzle flash running as well. It wakes itself on motion, so there is no switch to forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:16px;color:#1B3A6B;margin:18px 0 8px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#1B3A6B;color:#fff;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:7px 12px;text-align:left;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:7px 12px;text-align:left;\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eGATE SOL (SOL-1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eFunctions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eTracer, multicolour muzzle flash and chronograph\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eBB compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eStandard 6mm airsoft BBs;
