Hi all sorry not had a chance to get on here lately with work. I've now had a chance to skirmish with the mask and have decided it's absolutely hopeless. Far too bulky around the mouth area to effectively aim using the sights in the rental M4 I had, and also was completely blinded by condensation within 15 minutes of starting. In my desperation I even popped out the lens and wore the helmet with my Bollé glasses underneath and they were the same. I was hugely surprised at how little ventilation there was in there given the amount of holes in it. Won't be using it again, and it spoiled my first skirmish so much I have decided to invest in some ESS Turbofan goggles ASAP to prevent it ever happening again

I'm not sure if there's quite enough space for a fan, you could maybe get one at the bottom in front of your mouth but it would be a squeeze I think.

I'm not sure Lozart it's the full coverage helmet but think it's just the standard lens. The same company also sells the replacement lenses: yellow, smoked, iridium effect and thermal. I can't comment on the fogging as I haven't skirmished with it yet but it's incredibly comfortable and the volume of ventilation holes and slots would make it very difficult to fog up if think. I would definitely recommend the company I got it from like, they seem quite tricky to get in the uk but Paintball-Land.de had it on my doorstep in a matter of days. Here's the eBay item number if you fancy one; 271518882130 Here's some better pics of it for you:

That's the one I'm after, not too keen on the RIS rails on it though so will probably fit the G&P Navy Handgaurd with the torch in and add a 3-point sling. It's not that I dislike M4s and there is obviously a reason for so many people favouring them, but I prefer the look of the MP5 A5

I've just got my paintball mask off eBay from a company called Paintball-Land.de and I'm really happy with it. I couldn't find anything from the usual suppliers that fit my requirements but this one is perfect, with integrated goggles, with changeable lenses, full face and back of head protection. Looks pretty mean too lol...

Haha fair enough, cheers!

No not yet Monty, I'm fancying a G&G MP5 with retracting stock as my primary, I know I will likely be outranked by many but I like the look of the MP5 and it's compact size. Will be a few months away yet though as I'm not UKARA registered and I won't be spending that kind of money on a two tone that I will want to change later...will just use the rental G&G combat machine m4s for now I think...

Hi everyone just a quick post to say hello as I'm new to the forum and to airsoft. I've got all my kit together and I'm looking forward to my first skirmish this Sunday at NSC!
