You mean the integrity of the frames? Just enlargened the holes slightly larger with a 1.5mm drill bit. Frame still seems solid. Using them tonight for the first time. Will report back if they fall to pieces 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The frames are a different matter, are they pretty sturdy? A bit flimsy feeling to be honest. Reviews have said that the frames are rated less then the lens. We shall see. I doubt the bit where I drilled will break though. More likely elsewhere. I only know of two sites that required full seal goggles so I didn't want to spend that much on places I will likely go just once to review and not return.

I used to run bolle glasses exclusively for a good few yrs , I alway pulled the foam out and drilled extra holes in the top , as far as I can remember never had any frame integrity problems with them .👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humid night. Used the nuprol anti fog. 99% of the time everything was lovely and clear, 1% of the time there were some water droplets which didn't effect me much at all. The holes really helped and I didn't remove any of the foam. Got a bit of a scratch on the goggle when it got hit at ultra close range. Buffed the scratch out and its no longer there. For what they are it seems a pretty sound purchase, they are even pretty comfortable to wear! 25 minutes ago, Druid799 said: I used to run bolle glasses exclusively for a good few yrs , I alway pulled the foam out and drilled extra holes in the top , as far as I can remember never had any frame integrity problems with them .👍 8 hours ago, CrackCommandoUnit1972 said: I thought you meant drilling into the lens, which I thought was a daft idea. The frames are a different matter, are they pretty sturdy? I run almost exclusively with Bolle Shooting Glasses. My typical ones are some clear and amber lensed ones. Only cost me £3 on clearance down from 10. Have taken multiple strikes at close range with no issues. They also fog up less then my £35 set. The frames in this particular model (Tracker II) are known to be fairly flimsy compared to the rest of the Bolle line and I do agree with that sentiment. However I had no problems tonight.

The frames are a different matter, are they pretty sturdy? actually I did mean the lenses, I've done it on a couple of pairs with no failures, the trick is to not have them too close together, not too big (2mm max), & pilot the holes first with a SHARP 1mm bit, in order to put no pressure on the lenses. Obviously the holes need to be at the very top of the lenses, not anywhere near the eye area itself. & obviously I'm not advocating anybody else do this, my choice,my risk, but I had tested this method on similar units that had suffered scratches in use, & then shot the shit out if them point blank with a slightly hot gun, with no failures.

Most mags with the wider slot for you to load the mag that way the follower has a little grooved piece that slides down easy with your thumb those that don't I put a small metal tab into the follower. The wider slot makes it easier to move with your thumb nail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
