I tried these on at cup last year, and they felt really nice. The adjustable nose bridge is a great idea. Can't wait to try an actual production model on.

I have always been frustrated when cleaning thermal lenses of a certain brand. I would like to have a different bonding of inner to outer lens so that I can merely rinse them under a faucet and not worry about water finding its way in between the panes. Are the PUSH lenses the solution??

There's a picture of the inside on the first page for anyone that missed it.
I did wash the lens under the sink when I rinsed off the whole mask. However, I didn't try to submerge it or try to see if water could get between the panes.

Good call about the review section.

Speaking of visors is there one that will fit the I5's

Really? Hmm, didn't know ANS had bought those companies. Or for all I know, always WERE those sites. Some things, I'm really out of the loop on.
Maybe give a call to Mountain View Paintball. Not sure if Chris has stock or just a personal set, but they're generally a good go-to.

I don't know about the origin of paintball-online but Hustle was once a Colorado based company. I was out of the game when they transitioned over to being ANS but indeed they are now.
Mountain View... I'll check.

Paintball Online was based out of the Pacific NW and Hustle was out of Colorado. Both were bought by ANS in the last 5 years.

Not ANS, but based in Southern California like ANS.

Both are very comfortable and fit my face well. I have not played with the bridge adjustment extensively, and have only used them for the past two weekends. The KLR's are a fraction of an inch wider toward the rear, ear spacing, but neither press firmly. I haven't noticed any echo while speaking, or "seashell effect" while wearing. I do prefer the optics of the push lens, but I wear glasses so take that with a grain of salt. Field of view is about the same in both, slightly wider in the Push (my opinion), and the push has almost zero hologram from the overhead sun. I've had no issue with fogging, breath condensation, and the magnetic chin strap is simply the best current version out there.
Anytime I'm at a field, I'm more than happy to let people try my mask/gear. If you're interested, attempt to find someone local that has one and try it on. Stopping by a booth at an event is another great place to get hands on gear before purchase.

Paintball News Rules |
- No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
- Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
- If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
- Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
