Trev,

May I suggest that you use the full sealed style like the revision bullet ant, the reason is those safety glasses do work but the only time it is safe to wear them for airsoft is at CAPS events where it is just shooting targets with no return fire, the sides are still quite open to hard richochet or even a shot to get in. If you are a fan of scoutdoggie video as much as I am you will notice that in one of the video one of their players were actually hurt from getting a bb in the safety glasses from a stray, while he was not injured badly he considered himself lucky and made a switch to a sealed type glasses. Ultimatey it is your field and you have to make the call, just throwing in my 2cents

FYI - in the world of evil cloning there are clones of these safety type glasses that would not hold up to a .25BB fired from a M90 cylinder PTW, I recently did a test for the purpose of showing Paintball city owner/organizer the difference between the real and fake ballistic plastic eye pro and the mesh ones (it shattered and penetrated with a .25 and red cylinder M150, and dented badly with the .25 with blue cylinder 390-400fps)
