this is so true, recently i get to try a new toy so i happen to have an old JT goggles that haven't been cared for for years, a few burst of .20 from a stock galil cracked the first layer of lenses. another shot with a madbull 204 with 750psi penetrated the goggles with ease. So take care of those goggles no matter what makes.
