  • These tests aren't accurate.... Shooting them at point blank. Try at farther distances.

  • @EpikGameTime This test does not replicate normal conditions, nor was it intended to. It is intended to reproduce the worst accident imaginable on a US field with a sniper limit over 500 fps when an unsuspecting player comes around the corner of a building right when someone against the building wall is firing in the distance. It has happened more than once in California.

  • @auburnmedicalgroup ok.... does this work with paintball... ill make mods

  • @EpikGameTime I would not expect it to do as well as this. Paintballs have about 10 times the mass of airsoft BB's.

  • 520?! WTF most places only allow 300-400FPS at the most

  • @Kiribayashi The test is not intended to apply only to most places. It is intended to be a test that covers even accidental discharges at fields which allow snipers to fire over 500 fps.

  • i dont see why everyone is hating, obviously it is meant to be in the absolute worse conditions, but thats the point of torture tests, to see how something holds up under the worse conditions, thats why HK dumped their 416s in water and mud then fired them, to see if they held up in the absolute worst conditions

  • so what type of mask would you recommend if all these masks are considered unsafe?

  • @EpikGameTime They are accurate. Your always get an idiot who shoots someone at point blank. You want to minimise the risk down to 0. Its unlikely your get shot that close up, but it DOES happen.

  • well im getting to 34 buck bone crusher from air soft megastore and it is stell wire you think the bbs will still go through

  • yeah. it can break. thats why on the well know sites like airsoftgi and evike actually say "wear saflty glasses under these incase fragments occur"

  • This is why i didn't get mesh. evan at 300fps bbs can break.

  • Hey, that's my gun!
