*** Airsoft Face Protection ***


As of March 1, 2007 our insurance carrier has mandated that all airsoft players must wear paintball goggles that have not been modified from their original factory condition. Mesh masks, ballistic goggles, shooting glasses and any other goggle/facemask systems that are not specifically approved for paintball use are not allowed.

This is a non-negotiable requirement for airsoft play.

Thank you.

When you say unmodified paintball goggles, are we talking full face, or just the goggles?

Re: *** Airsoft Face Protection ***


My paintball mask won't let my cheek get close enough to the stock to let my eyes line up with my G36C's stock. That pretty much means I can't aim with my mask on. How can I fix this while still staying inside the rules?

There are masks with flexible sides that can allow you to get up on your iron sights pretty easily.

If you don't like that route, Get a Red Dot Sight on a raised rail.... That's what I have.
