Tell me I didn't waste my money...
 
I bought a couple paintball face masks made by JT....
Since I 've been browsing the forums, I've seen a lot of posts about googles, stressing not to buy "Cheap shit"...
These masks were about $40 canadian each.
Do you think these lens' will hold up to airsoft? I hope so. I'm not too keen on the idea of taking one and shooting it point blank range to test it...

Yes. We use PB goggles all ze time!

Wakeness August 19th, 2007 00:00

Excellent.

Drache August 19th, 2007 00:30

it's the goggles can stop a paintball, they'll stop an airsoft BB!

FYI, paintball goggles are rated to stop a paintball to 300 fps muzzle velocity. (it says so right on the goggle straps) :p

I've own many pairs of JT's. I would not wear anything else made from the paintball industry, call me old school but back then Scotts and Vents were kicking around.

Hades August 19th, 2007 02:52

JT is the way to be

Wakeness August 19th, 2007 10:23

Good stuff. Then I made the right choice.

jaa August 19th, 2007 23:01

what about firing range safety glasses? (they were free)

Skladfin August 19th, 2007 23:17

you can wear them as well.

They are probably polycarbonate anyways, those materials stops shotgun shells

Stopping a shotgun shell isn't hard... :p I think you meant shotgun (buck)shot.

*razz*

I thought those were for stopping things like flying bits of unexploded black powder, oh well.

Need something that protects the rest of the face I think. Getting shot in the nose hurts.

Nose aint as bad as lips or chipped teeth.

What's wrong with lookin' like that thing from goonies?

Wakeness August 20th, 2007 13:40

as long as you don't smell like him.....

anyways, I bought the full face rigs because I caught a couple shots on bare skin and I thought "Fuck that, I don't want to catch one of these in the face".

Usualy the "cheap" reffers to the quality, not the strength, cheapo paintball goggles will usualy fog like a bitch, where some expensive pairs do not, some do, but you got a better %
