Matrix Iron Face Carbon Steel "Striker" Gen4 Metal Mesh Full Face Mask (Color: Desert Tan)

"i received this mask in the mail today and it is the most comfortable
mask i have ever worn. definitely worth the money.

Pros:
comfortable
very secure doesnt move around
very easy to breath through
easy to aim down sights
very protective of face

Cons:
not really a con but u will need a neck cover to protect your ears
other than that none so far

"High quality build, extremely comfortable, and covers entire face. Mesh pattern almost disappears from vision once you put it on, much more so than I was expecting. Also it came down toward my neck further than I expected as well and didn't interfere with my high neck roll protection on my tactical vest.

The two straps that lock it down in the back are stretchy and comfy. It's small enough on your face that you can still see through a red dot mounted directly to a railed M4 reciever (thats NICE). Obviously will eliminate fogging problems in moist or cooler enviroments.

My ears felt just a little bit vulnerable but a nice PASGT or MICH helmet or a balaclava would make all the difference and would be recommended anyway ( .23's to the earhole at 400fps ain't cool O_O!)

This honestly could be the best facial/head protection system avaliable for airsoft use to date. It's far more efficent than traditional paintball masks which are clunky, fog up, and are a real pain to deal with when using a helmet and really don't cover as much area as this mask does. Anything more than this is overkill for airsoft use. It won't make you feel like a supertactical spaceman running short of air and it looks wicked. It's a must have and VERY nice for 30 dollars and believe me you for real GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR in the airsoft world. Personally I think that this mask is the new standard of what airsoft facial protection is all about.

Props to Evike on the hook up and helping elevate the game. Matrix=Airsoft, all grown up

"I just got this mask in today... no gameplay with it yet but seems to me it is the best airsoft mask ever, protection wise with the exception of regular paintball masks. I really love this mask, if you are looking for a good quality airsoft mask, get this!

Pros:
Low profile (you can aim down your weapon sights)
A LOT of protection around your face
Very easy to use
No problems fogging, as my goggles fogged up a lot on the Hakkotsu's iron face
LOOKS SO BADASS

Cons:
Big if you are a kid or have a small head (no big con)
Can sometimes be really close to your face its annoying feeling metal mesh up against your face (not big at all too)
WARNING: This mask is so awesome, it blown me away

"this thing is sick. you get full field of view. fully breathable and fog free. wired mesh is made really strong. the padding around is nice and comfy and sits nicely on my face. the top flaps over and clips on via 2 tactical quick release clips with elastic straps. the straps are adjustable. you can easily wear safety glasses underneath. i just hope the fields in socal will allow these in. i always thought: "if someone made something like this..." and now they have. now one like this in full safety plastic would be even better.

GOOD:
- full field of vision.
- breathable.
- fog free.
- super comfy.
- easily use safety glasses.
- strong mesh material.

BAD:
- wire mesh. (prefer punched mesh)
- some official fields might not let you use this.

"Overall for the price I like this mask, 4/5 stars. It covers the entire front of your face including chin, forehead, temples and the top of your head and the back of your neck down the center of your head. It does NOT protect your neck or ears if that’s matters to you. The straps to tighten mask are a bit loose but hold once I pull them 1/3 the way or so. It fits Comfortably and the mesh does not touch your face. The mesh is very sturdy. I shot it 4x at 3 feet and it did not dent the material. You have a very good range of vision and fog isn’t an issue. It’s worth it.

"great mask from beginning to end. The only cons, its not friendly to glasses and big noses, I fixed that by sowing some towels into cushions for my left and right cheeks and now feels snug against my face. Well worth the investment.

"It's a solid mask, good protection, and it looks pretty awesome. If you dont have a scarf or balaclava of some sort to cover your jaw, then it itches like crazy. Also it doesn't fit with most helmets, so take that into account if you dont want it to go to waste. 7/10

"It's really cool and works great! It fits me nicely and protects my entire face from those ugly, nasty bb welts. The only thing is that it will NOT match like the advertising pictures do. Mine doesn't match any of my ACU. If you're going for looks, it won't work. Functionallity is great though! I recommend it beside the odd bright coloring.

"this is a pretty good mask for the money! there are different pros and cons for this mask and here they are.

Pro
stays on your head snug
great for night games because its black
breathable!

Con
you can get shards (small pieces) of bbs if they are .12 or even .20 shooting about 370 or higher so i recomend getting small glasses if the people you play with use bad bbs
little large

"A good mask. There is a little problem where at the top it kinda fans out but i fixed this with a set of goggles around it. Some BBs will shatter on the mask but when they do it slows them down and in my experience they are to small to do any damage. If you are worried about this just where some goggle over it. For the price you couldn't ask for a better tactical mask your view is not hindered at all is almost as if you were wearing nothing.

"Well this mask was out of stock for a while, so I jumped on the chance to get it. I should warn everyone how is looking at the bottom two pictures: YOU ARE NOT GETTING THOSE. YOU ARE GETTING THE TOP PICTURE. The third picture shows 4-5 straps on the back of the head, while you only get three, one going along the back of the head and two at the bottom. As for putting the glasses on like in the second picture, no possible way to do that. Both pics also depict the cloth part surrounding the mask going back about halfway to the back of the head. You don't get that either. Maybe these are showing prototypes? I'm not sure, but it's misleading.

Other than not getting exactly what I was expecting, this mask is pretty sweet. You do need to wear safety glasses underneath to be 100% protected, but that's a small price to pay for 0 fogging. I wear glasses to see, so I get both sets pressed up against my face a bit. I just wear my hood and Balaclava and it creates enough of a gap.for me to be comfortable.

It looks great. In the right light it hides you face, gives you a very intimidating look, and it's the closest thing you can really get to a full helmet without giving yourself a whole bunch of shaking and discomfort.

Pro's:
-Looks awesome
-Flawless ventilation
-Did I mention it looks awesome?

Con's:
-NOT WHAT IS PICTURED
-Not designed for people with glasses
-Out of the box the sides press out a bit making it a wider target, but it goes away once in gets broken in

"I just got this mask today and it isnt what i expected. It doesnt fit like the ones in the picture. Mine is a little lopsided on the top. Also i would like to point out that it is see through from someone elses view. It isnt completely blacked out like it is in the picture. I would have prefered it to be see through only from the inside and blacked out on the outside.

pros:

serves its purpose
cant shoot through it
looks kinda cool
nothing blocks your view
visuals are like wearing nothing

cons:

mine was a little lopsided
not blacked out in front like in picture
