I have taken a couple hits to the mask but nothing ever happened except it scared me silly. Now this is only from personal experience.. we use good quality bb's no cheap bb's are aloud on the field, these bb's were tested by shooting them at the ground and no chips, the bb's just dented. I have never been shot point blank full auto in the face or anywhere else, not even by new players. I don't see anything wrong with them except when you look up while its raining you get water in your eye's.
.. even the highest quality BB's explode when they hit a solid surface without give...

Mesh goggles are OK... But they're not ideal.. say the one situation where you're running, you pop around a corner and startle a sniper... He pulls the trigger and you get a 450+ FPS bb going straight through your mesh goggles into your eyes.

They're fine for guns with Japanese limitations (1J limit.. I believe that's 350 on .2's) but over here we hardly adhere to Japanese FPS limits.
