Some indoor places ban bio bbs because of their tendency to shatter with mesh goggles. Tacoma Tactical does just this, and they're quite picky about it.

I would think that anybody who pumps out thousands of bags of thousands of bbs will have imperfections that will cause the bbs to shatter. That said, Iv never once had a KSC BB shatter on my mesh. I have the same goggles as church and shot them point blank with a .2g KSC bb from my 550 fps sniper and all i got was a dent. BB just bounced back into the barrel and fell out once i pulled the gun away.

People, the short version, is your eyesight worth it?.....

I lost the vision in one eye in 86. My life has never been the same. This hobby, sport or what ever you want to call it will pass. You still have to work , live, etc..... Protect your eyesight. You cannot get it back, believe me I wish that I could. Do what you must, but keep your priorities straight.
Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent,
and discerning if he holds his tongue.
