Wiley X

[23LRS]

My point of veiw. As a non warrior is. Don't close the barn door after the cow left. We know from news reports their main weapons are roadside bombs and a radical believe that they will find glory after death. We have to address those weapons and find a solution to them

Fuck you, you are in the wrong place to be voicing your opinion.

Go with the M Frames man. I think you will be pleased. The only problem is that they are a little bulky to store when not on your face.

True, but they do come with those sweet cases that you can store the glasses, some spare lenses and a cleaning cloth in, though. You wouldn't think that those cases could take that much of a beating, but they're pretty tough. I wasn't kind to mine and it made it out of the desert just fine.

I was issued the Wiley-X's with the dark/light lenses. Every single time I have used them, they fog up horribly. I really don't like them at all.

[EvilCouch]

The ones with the foam gaskets to fit tight to your face and come with a strap to replace the temple-pieces?

Yeah, those are fucking fog magnets if you're not in the desert and not moving around much.

I got issued a set in Korea during train up and they'd fog up as soon as I put them on. In Iraq, with my head out the gunner's hatch of my HMMWV, they we OK, though. I sure as hell wouldn't have wanted them if I was doing a foot patrol, though.

I wouldn't wear them again knowing what I know now, though.

I probably mentioned it earlier in this thread, but the fucking lenses of mine shattered in my assault pack after getting rough handled. I can't imagine the ones they issued to me were actually ballistic lens.

Damn.. and my Wileys were in my buttpack for 3 weeks.... opening it now to see how they are.

I'm looking into purchasing a pair of Wiley X glasses from their military/law enforcment series. I was wondering if anyone has used them with much success or if there are other similar products out there that are just as good or better. Thanks.

Dude get 'em they are the shit. Everyone in Regiment has 'em.
