Murdoc, you’re correct. I didn’t realize I posted it at GP and not here. Darned double blogs!

My apologies.

thebronze: I also posted this at GunPundit and you commented over there. Is that maybe the disappearing comment?

Flanker: Bullet Ant is also one I’m trying out. Seems to be a better product for a lot of roles if you don’t need the big honking ones.

The kit here retails for about $90, I think. Not exactly cheap, but that is about the going rate for top-shelf goggles like this.

I used ESS’s Advancer model when I was in the Stan, small two separate lens (similar to the Bullet Ant—gotta love that name)that popped out of the frame at the temple to provide increased airflow when dust was low or non existent. I’m sure the locust is a nice goggle, but I’ve never liked the honkin’ big kind as they’re a pain when worn with helmets or NVGs.
