Face Protection idea

TaktikAirsoft · March 30th, 2008, 15:22

I'm a newb first off...

I was thinking of getting some head gear but I can't seem to find anything that will give me full vision...

I was thinking of a paintball mask that you replace the eye peace with a hockey protective visor. This would give protection and good 180 degree vision?

Nope it sure doesnt. But one can never spent to much on protection for something like the eyes, where they dont magically grow back.

that's pretty much what I'm up to right now...just working on cutting it down so it's less hot and sticky.

The idea was that the fabric between the strips would absorb impact while providing breathability.

Gah! Not those again... Maybe it's the facial expression, void of emotion or maybe it's something else, but those masks freak me out! :P

Oh well, if it'll prevent a bb from breaking your teeth, then it might not be so bad.
