Head shots.

Slightly more contentious this

My views -

Everyone has the option to wear it, that player has chosen not to wear it. If their head is the only thing showing and they are a threat to me in terms of shooting I'm taking the shot

I expect some people not to agree with me and I don't actively seek to hurt players but we all knew what we were doing when we turned up and agreed to play

Agreed totally. Have a read of my post above, but to surmise I basically said the same thing. People choose not to wear full face pro, that is their choice and they know the potential consequences of not wearing full face pro.

 
I play to shoot ppl and to be shot, I mostly play a local woodland site which is quite a large site. I always aim for the head as with the distances I play at I know the bb will drop and hopefully hit centre mass! I'm quite happy to take head shots and give them out in equal measure! However if I'm at close range 20m or so, I'll always go for a body shot as I'm more likely to hit the target! 5m or less I use the bang rule, as my site utilises it! At a different site I have been full auto'd in the back from <2m wearing ubacs only, the site didn't run a bang rule so fairs fair! If it had been the face I wouldn't of been the happiest but I run full face dye i4's

I guess what I'm getting at is I treat others how I wish to be treated, I also treat others how they treat me! The only time I do any different is if someone doesn't take their hits! Then they get the lot!

 
There are some occasions where I've ended up getting shot at without lower face on (mostly long distance stuff, where I think I'm out of range). If in one of those instances I got ended up losing a tooth, I don't think there'd be a single moment where I considered it anyone's fault but my own. As people have said, not wearing lower face protection is a risk, and those of us who go without have to deal with the consequences should they ever occur.

 
I only wear full face protection at cqb sites, in woodland just goggles/glasses.
