We won't faff with the lower end gear here, but we will still give you value for money. We've selected two of the best options out there - one that's a bit pricier, one that's excellent value for money, but both are excellent options for firearm eyewear.

The Top Dog Of Firearm Eyewear: Oakley SI Tombstone Spoil With PRIZM Shooting Glasses

The Oakley SI Tombstone Spoil with PRIZM shooting glasses are built for tactical use primarily, and with their high specs, they'll last you for years to come.

These Oakley shooting glasses are some of the best because they asked veteran marksmen exactly what they should include when designing them. After going through several designs, they've come up with a pair that enhance your field of view to a full 120 degrees. 

The Specifications:

• Unobstructed field of vision that's the best you'll get from any glasses.
• PRIZM tech included in the package so eye strain is decreased and you can fine-tune the lens depending on the environment. 
• Oakley also allows you to choose from a range of other lenses to tailor the glasses to your needs. 
• Full UV protection.
• Unobtanium nose strip that guarantees they'll stay in place even when wet. 
• A wide field of view of 120 degrees.
• The Switchlock Quick Lens Exchange means that you can swiftly change the lenses with ease.

The single downside to the Oakleys' is that they don't come cheap - they're a complete investment for serious shooters. 

The Top Shooting Glasses For The Money: Pilla Outlaw X Shooting Glasses

The Pilla Outlaw Shooting glasses are an excellent option for those looking for a reliable standard pair of firearm glasses that won't break the bank. They offer lots of options for these glasses, so making them personal to you is easy. Plus they have a wide range of colours available which is always a bonus when you want something individually suited to you. 

The Specifications:

• The Pilla Outlaw X has configurations available for shooting, archery and action shooting. 
• Big range of colours and colour combinations.
• 4 kits to choose from for lens filtration; Progressive Lens Kit, Truck Kit, Bank Kit and Boost Kit. 
• Prescription inserts can be an added feature.
• Two temple options. There's no metal wire here either, so they'll give you lots of comfort.
• 5 positions to adjust the glasses, so they have longevity and versatility.
• 2 size options and a lightweight build.
• Extremely protective. 

There are no proper cons with this pair of firearm eyewear, but they don't quite reach Oakley's heights. That's to be expected; the price drop will mean they don't have the spec of expensive options. But they're versatile, protective and have a crazy amount of customisations available so you can't go wrong. 

These are just two of the options out there, and both companies offer other shooting glasses at various price points. Just remember that it's worth your time looking into the options available and protection should be at the top of your priorities
