Yes, the fogging I had with goggles just ruined the day, at times could hardly see anything and it made playing very difficult without return trips to the safe zone to clear them. Paying £100 for a better game experience is worth it, and the protection is good.
They are very good and worth the cost. The full face protection suits me for playing CQB. Quick look on Amazon and the version I purchased are now about £95 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dye-Precision-Thermal-Paintball-Goggle/dp/B00FY5NB0C/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1454513587&sr=8-16&keywords=Dye+i4. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dye-Paintball-Goggles/dp/B019XPFMC8/ref=pd_sim_sbs_200_3?ie=UTF8&dpID=51%2BBe-lkkOL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=070KMQSZ60W34PWJG8PF
Edit: I do get some moisture inside the mask from sweating, so some droplets/beads of water (not fogging) appear on the thermal lens which I shake out and dry between games.
Welcome I am not as far west as the Hungerford gun club, and currently play at The Mall in Reading and UCAP Bunker in Portsmouth. There are also Iron Sight south of Andover and Combat South Woodland in Wickham, Hampshire.
Protection of my teeth and lips is nearly as important as my eye protection. Found it rather painful getting shot on full auto at close range just above my mouth and across my nose; a properly fitting mesh mask is worth it. Whether you want to wear one or not is a matter of personal choice, I mainly play CQB so do not want split lips or dentist bills. I actually prefer wearing my Dye i4 mask.
I bought one from eBay that was so badly built and asymetrical so that you would need to be the elephant man to make it work. No doubt with pliers and inclination it could be cut and shaped to fit, but that is too much effort.
Would get a better deal in the States but hassle of bringing it back into the UK. No hurry really as the TM is going strong but feel that I ought to have a spare just in case. Good excuse to get an classic MP5.
Yea get a cqb weapon, shorter and lighter than your 416 for getting round corners quicker. Really impressed with the scar L CQC and the compatible mags is a massive bonus.
Yep, tree hugging, green voting, vegetarian, members of team fluffy pink unicorns. We are just passively agressive, hail fellow, smiling assasins. Still we will shake hands after shooting you, and then take the piss
