Cactus Hobbies Army of Two Mask (Plain, Black)
First review on the website...boy, is it a good one!
Introduction: This is a Review of the Cactus Hobbies Army of Two style mask. Cactus Hobbies is a company that deals exclusively in Face Masks for Airsoft (and other like hobbies). Please, please check out thier website, thier work is simiply incredible! http://www.cactushobbies.com/ Construction: My first thoughts were 'unusally lightwieght for somthing so dense', and it really is. Its got a tough polymer exterior (fiberglass construction) thats got a zero-penetration garuntee at 500FPS, point blank! The 'eyes' are a 440 steel meshwork that, despite how fine it is (to stop projectiles hitting your eyes) are actually really easy to see through once worn. The mask is attached by 5 straps, connecting to a back plate (similar to the game) that is made of the same sturdy stuff as the mask. Lastly, the interior! The inside is really well padded, and extremely comfortable to wear - the breathing holes function brillaintly! The padding utilises 'QuickDry' interior padding to stop buildup of sweat and ensure superior comfort. However, its much less likely to sweat and get hot in this mask, as it ciculates air efficiently and doesn't have any lenses! |
Look and Usage:
Look? Well, thats easy. It looks fantastic! as well as looking the part, it also has actual battledamage moulded as part of the mask! The finish is very even, and has been well applied to this mask. As the mask adds bulk, one frequently asked question (when using it) is just how much it gets in the way, and how it may inhibit your functionality. Well, its not as bad as you may think! Wearing the mask does not cut off much of your field of view, certainatly not enough to make it a disadvantage. If, like myself, you use assault rifles, you will find it very different to aim down any sights (particularily if you use optics) as it does conflict with a weapons stock. One of the only issues i have run into with regards to looks is that, when the masks straps are tightened, they sort of 'stick out'...but I think duct tape will solve that! Overall Opinion: Gaah, what a purchase! I can't wait to start airbrushing it! This is the best piece of headgear I can think of for Airsoft...it looks, feels and fits incredible. 5/5! |
EDIT: I would like to stress the perfection in its design. After several shooting tests, this baby has not worn at all. And i can run about without steaming up! Genious ^^
