How do headshots feel without helmet?

its weird taking them off and suddenly feeling deaf :D
I know, you feel naked without your magic headset haha.
Then again down side is you can't hear your friends close buy if there's a crowd talking (and running them under a helmet does not make them easy to come off.

 
I don't use helmets in airsoft, I find they trap too much heat..

I also get shot in the face on a regular basis and it doesn't really hurt tbf.. You definitely feel it for the first 5 minutes then adrenaline kicks in..

 
wear what your comfy with, no shot is the same and every ones pain threshold is different

ive been shot in the face, below left eye, between google and mask, drew blood but the wasp sting on my finger a few days before hurt a lot more.

Got shot the other weekend on the bridge of nose roughly 6m away ish...., drew blood, but again nothing major, just dont follow @Markuz  :lol: :lol: :lol:
hehe next time when I say "lets go!"  ......... Lets go! Thats why we are not SWAT ; )

 
Been shot on:

The bridge of the nose at a few feet - instant claret. 

End of the thumb nail, as in the thin edge  - that persuaded me to wear gloves.  

On the radio earpiece - it sounded like Judgement Day and set my tinnitus off.

On the earring - the earring opened, uncomfortable but no drama. 

Mesh full face mask from China for less than a tenner and pull your hood up for CQB.  No worries.

I probably loose more blood and hurt myself more tinkering with old motorcycles.  Skinned knuckles, crushed fingers, swarf under the skin and hammered thumbs.  Wear a helmet if you want to, but its not essential.  

 
I got shot at CBQ range (4M) from the first shot of a cooked co2 pistol mag. Right square in the little finger nail... It went black and fell off after a few days.

The shot went off with that lovely co2 plume of gas you get when it's been about 30 degrees out, and you've had the mag cooking all day in your webbing. 

Words couldn't be spoken.

You can shoot me in the face all you want after that.
