E21A Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 I’m liking the site rules with regard to mesh and drum mags ??
Cipher-032 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 The mesh eyepro is a no brainer. Specially in CQB. Looking forward to next month for sure, MP7 and my new Cyma shot gun is going to get a work out for sure.

I would actually trust a pair of heroshark glasses far more than the cheap china eyepro worn by half the community.

Yeah but it was nothing didn't really pierce and caused less damage than a windy day at the beach. Yes the bb shattered but slowed down so it caused no real damage. All players who wear it know the slight risks and sign a waiver so personal choice is where it should be. Worst eye injury I ever saw was a guy whacking into a wall and his glasses frame split above his eye but you cant ban glasses frames either.
heroshark Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 In 17 years even with shit mesh I'm yet to come across a single in game incident where anyone has received any serious or lasting eye damage from a bb breaking on mesh. I've personally had bits go in my eye on over 10 occasions now in those years and continue to wear it based on my personal experience. If they are gonna throw mesh under the bus they better ban non-sealed eye pro too. There has been countless well detailed in game incidents where people have received permanent sight damage due to whole bbs getting in eye pro. Which is even worse when it happens in close quarters, I've seen it happen. 2 people I know have limited sight in one eye because of it . I don't think anyone should be dictated to whether it be mesh or non-sealed eye-pro.
Moderators Tackle Posted August 10, 2019 Moderators Posted August 10, 2019 Likewise, I always carry some decent mesh eye pro on me for game days, my only very small criticism of mesh is obviously vision is a smudge more limited, partly through light transmission but mainly because at 51, I now need glasses for close up such as reading fine print, the downside to this is anything "solid" in front of the eyes, even fine mesh, can cause focus issues for me. so if I'm indoors in semi dark environments, it's clear or yellow glasses, but with the mesh in my pouch in case misting gets silly, & woodland sites my mesh as my primary eyepro with glasses as back up. never had anything get past the mesh though, & ive been hit in them more times than I care to admit to ?
GeorgePlaysAirsoft Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Gutted to hear about no mesh. A 'shatter' (when it does actually happen) is like walking into a cobweb. Agree with heroshark - full seal mesh better then glasses, easily.

No mesh allowed ? they just lost another customer, I'm old (& ugly) enough to decide what ppe suits me ?

Moderators Tackle Posted August 10, 2019 Moderators Posted August 10, 2019 its just lookin better & better........not
Grantcollins Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 I agree no mesh is rediculos I've been playing 9 years and at many cqb sites including the mall school the barracks some real close encounters and have never had an issues with my hero shark ipro and I have been shot in the ipro many times. I can't wear non mesh as they always steam up within Minutes, I have tried all different types and still no joy Mr Wilson please consider your ruling on that
E21A Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 They’ve updated those since I looked. Bio only is an odd one at an indoor site. Full auto too? ?
