If you want this in a different section than please just delete it.
Otherwise, i assumed we could have a section on questions/suggestions/comments on gear we use in the field.
Question: Im looking for Mesh goggles which aren't full face, so just like goggles but not the small type that look like swimmers goggles. Anybody know of a place that supplies them? I see tons upon tons of people using them and they are becoming more popular. So im looking for anything to escape the airsofters nightmare: Fog..

Ohhh ok. I've honestly never seen anyone using those, and I'm pretty sure I haven't seen anywhere that sells those. I think I'd feel a little safer with full fledged goggles too haha

Has anyone tried any that work well with prescription glasses? I'd rather not have to get prescription safety glasses too xD

I've never seen anyone actually using anything like a riot shield during an airsoft game, but I would say that if he is going to use one, he would probably need to stick to pistols while holding it to keep it fair for everyone else since he'll pretty much be walking around with a piece of cover that would make him much less likely to be hit. |

I was going to get Salem's flat black mask, and do the art myself. They did a nice job with the red flames, but that mask is not camo green.

does anybody else have problems using iron sights with a paintball mask? It gives me a lot of trouble and wasted shots.

with the paintball masks it is usually very difficult to see down them. I usually just use it to get a general idea of where the bb's are going to hit then play it by eye. But using just goggles fixes that and makes using the iron sights a whole lot easier.

Paintball masks are best used cut down, just covering your nose, mouth, and eyes. One of the guys I play with has done this and despite it picking up the name "**** and balls" it works well.

In my opinion a mask is a waste you can buy a pair of nice shooting glasses for 10 bucks where as a mask is like 30 to $50. plus theres the fog issue which from my experience if the humidity is high which it is in va then you'll have issues with any gogles or masks. I wear glasses and a camo mask i had from hunting. I never have issues aiming or with fog. I'd suggest glasses but the down side is a shot to the face which to your average player is quite painful.
