Civilian Input -
I use Wiley X goggles myself on the range, and at work as a machinist. They're terrific and saved my eyes on three occasions that made my heart skip a beat. I figured if they're strong enough to stop IED shrapnel they're strong enough to stop a chunk of solid carbide that was moving at 19,000RPM's before it decides to fly in my general direction.
I noticed ArmyVern requests pictures, so I'll just direct you all to the Wiley website. They have two pictures out of Iraq sent by Marines in theater. Be warned about a bit of blood and shrapnel damage. Oh and horrid spelling and grammar.
