    Fuck I'm amazed how many that people don't value their eye sight

    I'm a tradie & wear basic safety specs all the time ( tinted & non-tinted ) I'm amazed how many times I see guys not wearing any or have to tell people to put some protection on while on job sites ( especially using power tools )

    As for shooting, I had a magnum suppressor blow many yeas ago at a gong shoot & luckily I was wearing a pair of basic Oakley "five" sunnies & yes they saved alot of small shit & rubbish going in my peepers, It took little chips out'a the lenses & I still use those glasses today, was probably the best $120 I ever spent.

    I was lucky it was only a suppressor popping but if you have a major "breach explosion" then you need decent protection,remember you are firing a bomb 3" from you face & it's not just shit blowing apart & flying but the shock wave that causes the damage.

    Invest in decent shooting glasses, If doing lots of range -target - gong shooting buy the best you can afford & use em, I use Scott AEGIS they are enormous stupid looking things but fuk they have great reviews & seem to work.

    AS for in the hills, I use cheap safety specs, I know they won't work as well but offer some protection & don't care if I scratch or lose em.


    Just look after ya eyes, they don't grow back.
