check out sykesmasks.co.uk for some sick army of two masks. both me and my dad use them when we go airsofting and i find they are better than anything else i have used previously (included viper goggles, and comfort mask, or my ESS ice ballistic glasses(which are pretty awesome still)).
@Jakelton117 Everyone thinks this but basics physics says that a grand majority of the time IF there are any fragments (which is possible but unlikely) they will bounce back out in a cone pattern. Now there are plenty of variables involved that make it possible, however unlikely, that your eye will get struck, just as it is possible, but unlikely, for goggles made to take a certain impact to break under their specifications...
hey kingd big fan and everything, i just wanted to know if you've ever ordered a pistol or aeg from them? i've ordered alot of things from them but never an airsoft weapon and i didn't want to pay £100 just to have customs seize it, so have you ever had any trouble like that?
I got a quick question. I know for a fact that on the cactus hobbies AO2 masks, the way they are molded, you cant really aim down your iron sights. The question is, is it possible to aim down your sights, or even a low profile reflex sight, with THIS mask?
well if your sights set up high enough yes something like the l85a1 iron sight's would work just fine but something like a reflex sight depending upon the aeg i would put it on a raiser mount just to give it better eye to sight relief
I'm running an S-System with an EOTech replica. Do you think I would need a riser for that? I don't think I will because the EOTech's lens is mounted pretty high as is.
My friend is doing his own army of 2 mask and he shot it 400FPS when the barrel was on about 5-15cm away from the mask. And im doing own mask too, but the mask will be a clown. :D
I've had my mask about a month now, and I can say from my experience that it is very durable. I have a little trouble breathing in it, as the holes are a little small, but thats an easy fix. Just open them up a bit.
The other issue I have with it is the cheap paint that comes on it. It starts to rub off after only about 5-6 times of taking it on or off, so around the neckline and mouth, the paint is gone. However, just repaint it, and its fine.
do u think it would be simple to buy this one and paint /stencil the blue flames on the side of this one like the cactus hoby ones? wats your opinion on how simple and easy it would be to paint?
you could paint flames on it but it would take some time and good steady hand as well and to get it looking professional unless you really know you are doing it could be a real pain in the neck
i'd probably print some flame stencil's of the pc and just spray paint em on, or could u think of somewhere that would paint em professionally, like a car shop?
great review..and i agree its a rare occasion that u get shot in the eyes..nobodies is going to try to aim for your eyes.. u usualy play wit ur freinds..they wont shoot at ur eyes unless there tryin 2 hurt u..and if they are u need new friends lol
I had just bought one and wanted to see another person's review on it. Great review. I'm into airsoft and this was a great review to see what it's capabe of. can't wait till mine arrives. thanks again.
the cactus hobbies ones are the original made ones, everything else like on ebaybanned and on ehobbyasia are clones.. which is bad, the mesh on yours was dented a bit with under 400 fps. hopefully you dont get any chips in your eye, i got a new version of the mask cactushobbies made and its real breathable, and has enough room for those ballistic sunglasses people use for airsoft.
Well like i have said before i have seen the cactus hobbie mask mesh eye part dent at guns shooting at and under 400fps and lets be real who going to shoot me point blank range in the face
i shot mine 500+ no dents but mines one of the brand new masks they came out with so the mesh is probly alot stronger then before, but yeah like you said, in reality no one is going to shoot you point blank, ever really. if they did, then theres a problem.
well it from 5 feet away the body of the mask took my 375fps echo 1 ak 74u cpm easily the mesh eye part only dented just a tad bit but nothing to worry about
well i have personally seen the mesh part of the eyes dent and chip the paint from a gun only shooting 400 fps and second matrix cactus hobby mask cost like $90 and $110 with shipping so not all of us have or want to send that kind of money but each their own
you gotta be realistic, i mean who is gonna come upto u in an airsoft field and shoot you in the face point blank with a 500FPS airsoft gun in the first place? if u really must spend the extra cash for the extra protection though like king said each to their own.
well first off you are right no mesh in really safe but so far i been lucky most fields i play the owner tries to make fellow player's use at least high quality bb's
Is the mesh reliable?
Will it break by a .25g bb impact at 500fps?
How safe is it exactly?
Sjark92 7 months ago
@Sjark92 that high of fps and that weight of bb i honestly do not know sorry
kingd3001 7 months ago
Is it possible to wear glasses in that mask?
Hate wearing lenses, that's why I'm asking...
Sjark92 8 months ago
@Sjark92 But do you think it's reliable?
Sjark92 7 months ago
please tell me as soon as you can can you aim down the sights when you are wearing this mask?
nice review
