Ballistic Eyewear

SPECS Ballistic Eyewear

These are SPECS (Special Protective Eyewear, Cylindrical System) glasses, a clear-lens protective spectacle made by MSA and packed under a US government stock label. They cover the eyes at the range, on the workbench or in the field, and the ratcheting temples and two styles of earpiece let you set them up to sit comfortably for long sessions. The included retainer strap keeps them hanging at your chest when you take them off.

Features

• Cylindrical Clear Lens — A single wide lens curves around the front of the face with side shields molded in, so the eyes are covered from the front and the sides without tinting your view.
• Ratcheting Temples — A ratchet at each hinge clicks the lens up or down in steps, letting you tilt it to suit your face, cheekbones or shooting position.
• Spatula And Cable Earpieces — The kit includes both a pair of spatula earpieces, which run straight back over the ear, and a pair of cable earpieces, which curl behind the ear to hold the glasses in place during movement.
• Retainer Strap — A black fabric strap attaches to the temple ends so the glasses can hang around your neck between strings instead of being set down on a dusty bench.
• Clear Molded Nose Bridge — A clear nosepiece rests the lens on the bridge of the nose and keeps the frame off your face.
• Black Frame — The browbar and temples are black, giving the glasses a low-key look that pairs with any kit.
• Instruction Booklet Included — A SPECS instruction booklet comes in the kit and covers how to fit and adjust the eyewear.
• Government Stock Labeled — The package label carries NSN 8465-01-416-4628, part number 306782 and the designation Class 1 Regular, sized as one pair.

Kit Contents And Fit

Each kit has the glasses, a spare set of earpieces so you have both the spatula and cable styles, a retainer strap and the instruction booklet. The lens carries an MSA mark, and the label identifies the item as SPECS Class 1 Regular, with an NSN (National Stock Number, the military's catalogue code for the item) of 8465-01-416-4628. Between the ratchet hinges and the swappable earpieces, one pair can be adjusted to fit a wide range of faces and worn comfortably under ear protection or a hat.
