Amazon already flagged them to stop unverified people from making reviews. Thanks for putting this out there. They shouldn't be selling "paintball" masks that do this. Some first timer is going to get hurt.
Awesome!! when started with branding, it was like who cares about the brand names. But, actually showing what can happen when shot by a paintball is unarguable, period, nicely done.
I had a friend of mine who got a knock off dye mask. The ref told him to go back and get a rental mask. And then showed us how weak the lenses were. Lenses broke after two shots
Can’t wait for spring to start playing paintball again. I’ve been saving up for some new gear(plan on getting a etha 3 soon). I miss the indoor field because it was really close and the 26 mile outdoor field was cool to.
Even a cheap $35 v-force mask that is 20 years old that I use in my backyard as a Target when doing drills, I have hit the lens probably thousands of times and the lens still has no cracks in it, yet these cheap masks break right away. That is so dangerous to be advertising these things as paintball mask, I can smell lawsuit coming in the near future. I also work at a paintball field so now I am aware to look out for customers coming in with these things. Thanks for putting this video up oh, I was unaware that these things were out there, Maybe I can help prevent some people from losing an eye since I seen this video.
Some kid at my field showed up with an Amazon mask, ref told him to get a rental, we tested it later, I shot it twice, one shot went through the lense, the second through the nose, then I put my gun at 15 bps ramping and let the kid finish it off, a hopper later it was just plastic shards on the ground
If you had to cheap out on a knockoff mask or knock off marker honestly cheap out on the marker. That way when it inevitably fails, you can learn a lesson that won't literally cost an eye and a leg.
Bruh I was such a dork a long time ago I bought one of those nerf goggles for paintball luckily we never played when I got the mask I’ve definitely up’d my game
Please DON'T do that for many reasons. You'd be supporting someone that is clearly trying to hurt people. Secondly, the knock off mask still doesn't have the proper safety features like the lens retention system that is needed
The problem is that they advertise them for Paintball and Airsoft when they are clearly not rated for those applications. That is very scary and will lead to injuries
No, don't be ridiculous. This is not the time for jokes or any trolling. Someone can and WILL lose an eye because of these pieces of garbage floating around for purchase.
Every retail store and paintball park should make a video like this. We did one a few years ago, maybe it’s time for another. Great video LWP.

Really should be a verification system for stuff like this to stop possible lawsuits.
We definitely left a bad review since we bought them and proved the item description is inaccurate and the product is defective

@1:09 "Linges"???
the amount of airsofters who do not want to wear masks/wear shop glasses is concerning.
For real! If you're a goggles only kinda guy, you deserve to swallow paintballs and BBs lol Dumbasf
Darwinism in action.
@@someguy2425your not gonna die from getting your eye shot by a airsoft gun
@@fbi1961YOU'RE so right! YOU'RE a genius!

Thanks for this! The Dye i4 has been knocked off a lot too

I just got the Etha 3 it's cool. Only used it once tho
Wow that’s eye opening thanks

Thank you for posting this video. Unfortunately I am not sure how many people who would purchase these knockoff goggles will actually see this video.
Good looking out.

This is CRAZY thanks for the video guys
Thank you for this
Fantastic!
The photoshop they have is top notch
It's sad this even has to be made
Hey, I'm just curios, but do you think these would be ok for use in airsoft?
Don't even think about it. I doubt these even meet Ansi z87.1 standards.
I got this valken mask for about 50 bucks on Amazon feels great double lens thing thermal…
As long as it's an actual Valken Mask you're in good hands!
@@LoneWolfPb okay thank you. Yes I believe so.

Appreciate the tips for new players! We need all the people we can get and we don’t want to scare them away with horror stories like this. 👍🏼
these need to be removed from the market yesterday. I would go as far as to say that amazon should do a recall
You tripping i have thoes scince 2016 they are good
Will the real lens fit in the knockoff mask? That would be like $5-$10 cheaper to buy the real lens and the knockoff mask.
NEVER CHEAP OUT ON SAFETY
Please DON'T do that for many reasons. You'd be supporting someone that is clearly trying to hurt people. Secondly, the knock off mask still doesn't have the proper safety features like the lens retention system that is needed
DO NOT DO THAT FOR ANY REASON. SELL SOME STUFF YOU DON'T USE ANYMORE AND GET A REAL MASK.
I’ll give you credit for the Ingenuity, but NO. We can’t grow back our eyes as of yet 👀
@@LoneWolfPb I'm a firm believer in removing the "do not eat label" off paint. Let natural selection take over.
The last mask I think it says good for riding. ( motor cycles)
the one thing you should be spending good money on is your mask. never ever skimp on a mask.
There are also fake CRBN masks I seen today for 80$ with branding and everything please look at little details
What if I buy an FMA F1 and exchange it for original Dye i4 lenses?
*Stares**Shakes Head No*
PLEASE, DON'T! These knock off masks are still missing other safety features and giving them any money only continues to support these scammers
This just shows never cheap out on your mask.
i bought a 130 dollar slr off amazon, do you think its fine?
If it's a real SLR should be fine.
selling these should be a crime
those cheap mask are great fro jelly ball but never use em for paintball they arnt rated for it or tested for it.
The problem is that they advertise them for Paintball and Airsoft when they are clearly not rated for those applications. That is very scary and will lead to injuries
wow!!! this is so dangerous! this should be illegal. amazon, how dare you?
Everyone report these items to Amazon. Try n get them removed.
Yes please!
I mean... their not that bad
No, don't be ridiculous. This is not the time for jokes or any trolling. Someone can and WILL lose an eye because of these pieces of garbage floating around for purchase.
God i hope no one actually bought this thing 😮
I got a real virtue off Amazon
Taken from a dude wearing USPA
smells like a good lawsuit a brewing
I used an old jt mask this past weekend got hit in the cheek of the mask and it left a welt lmao
Well an old JT Mask can be as much as 30 years old at this point lol
@@Airen130 idk when it's made don't even remember using it. Got it at the end when I was 12. Now I'm 23
