    Where to try on shooting glasses?

    I've been trying to get new shooting glasses that work and look good. Is there a place that has a lot in stock that you can try on? Recently bought Wiley X SG-1s to see how I liked them and ended up sending them back and having to pay for shipping and all that. Trying to find a more cost effective method of trying new glasses

    I just wear a 5 dollar pair of safety glasses from lowes.... they've served me well for like 5 years for various projects and shooting.

      I go to big 5. The employee was cool with me opening every package and trying all of them on.

        You don't wear safety glass at the range to make a fashion statement. You wear them to protect your eyes. If they fit and you can see through them, they're good to go. If you need to make your presence known at the range, you're too tacticool for me.


        Want to stand out at the range? Remove the black part of your target in as few shots as possible.

          I agree with the basics of this statement; safety glasses are a tool. But if you are presented with options, why not look into each of them to see what works best for you?

            Try Ammo Bros in Cerritos. I've seen some of the higher end ones in display cases so I'm sure the guys will be able to open it up and you can try them on. I've never done it there myself.
