Shooting glasses

[John1959]

Hi

I need to get some glasses for shooting my air pistol. Can anyone recommend an optician who would understand what I would require in the Cheshunt/North London area.

Can't help with optician, sorry.

Just going to suggest you ask the question in the target/competition section.
You're more likely to find someone who wears shooting glasses there.

Why not try safety glasses. These are what I wear when I shoot. Mine are comfortable and gives me clear vision when I shoot. Try this link:-

For 10m pistol shooting you focus on the foresight, the correct lens helps you do this.

Yes that's exactly what I meant.

But where do I get the lense made. Thats my problem and what size would I need for pistol shooting.

Hi,

The larger sized lens for pistol shooting. 42mm for the Champion frames.

Bisley have an optician here :- http://www.stewardsportsglasses.co.uk/

Or you can get the lens holders and chat to your local optician.

This guide will help them. http://www.australiancynic.com/NYGOR..._The_Eyes_Have

Spex4less will fit the lenses once you have the correct prescription.

I recommend Mike Taylor, of Bill & Taylor Optometrists in Honiton.

Excellent service in my experience, I have no connection by the way.
