i love my v-force shield mask. It has easy lens replacement and a very very good anti-fog coating on it. It is also very comfortable.

I'm a big fan of my VForce Vantage. Fits nice and snug and doesn't fog. It can take a beating as well.

VForce makes some alright masks in that range. However while their anti-fog system works well, it can still fog on you at times. I've had it happen with my top-of-the-line profiler even. JT Flex-7 masks can be had at doropaintball.com for $45 right now, and they use a thermal lens which will never fog unless you mess up the interior lens. So long as you follow the cleaning instructions, you're good to go.

It's either in that range or a bit more.

tallen the funny part is i have never had my vforce thermal lens fog on me but my JT did and I followed the instructions lol. The one thing to be careful of w/ JT is if you go to get the wrap around one make sure it fits. my head is too big to fit in them lol.

I bought a used Invision (100 dollars new or so) for 20 bucks. Works just like new, just doesnt look it, but after playing 1 game all wont look it. So I suggest getting a good mask used, as cheap masks at those prices may be uncomfortable and fog.

I'd spring a bit more for profilers, I just got a pair coming from invisions and I love them to death, much better range of vision imo, and more comfortable, fair trade for a slightly larger profile.

I agree with GhilleMan. I love my profiler, never had a fogging issue and quite comfortable.

the proto switch has worked well for me. also played with the profilers and finally bought i3's. I've seen the switches sell for as low as 15 bux used. Still use mine from time to time. Just make sure u get to try them on before buying.
