  1. Same specs just for a lot less! Those frames look pretty cool. I wanted to get a pair of some name brand frames like Oakley or Wiley X, but they were so expensive. Plus, I started seeing that there were a lot of frames out there that had the same certifications/standards that the more expensive frames had for a fraction of the price. I was pretty impressed with those Oakley's that you mentioned in your last post, but saw that they actually have the same certifications as other glasses like my MCR Forceflex. E.g. Meets/exceeds ANSI 287.1 standards, Military grade ballistic impact level standards (MIL-PRF 31013), and high mass/velocity impact standards. I was browsing around on Amazon and found them for as low as a little over $7 a pair! Just thought you might want to know the alternatives that are out there to keep some extra money in your wallet. Check out the link. Thanks. Amazon.com: MCR Forceflex glasses
  2. RE: stevebeilgard Stevebeilgard, Wow! So you've got some experience under your belt. What color lenses are you currently using? Thanks.
  3. Shooting glasses Steve Beilgard, What brand of glasses do you use?
  4. How to choose the best lens color Strut10, Check out this site link. Shooting Glasses Lens Color Chart I think it should help as far as the kind of lenses you need for each situation. Like I said with my amber lenses it really helps to isolate and brighten the visibility of the targets whether indoor or outdoors, foggy/cloudy or clear sunny skies.
  5. Shooting Safely Not sure if anyone is still following this thread, but I've been using MCR Safety's Force Flex safety glasses. With respect to lens color, amber has proven to be the most helpful when it comes to shooting. In my case, they have really helped me to take note of my surroundings and make it much easier on the eyes. They exceed ANSI Z87 + standards and are capable of withstanding a military ballistic impact at over 1,000 feet per second. As you might imagine they are nearly impossible to break, hence the name, Force Flex. You can try and bend them out of shape all you want, but they will always return to original form. I don't have a site link, but they shouldn't be too hard to find online. Thanks!
