Ok with a user name like Fathead , i would forget getting i4's... They are very small and if you have a large face, be prepared for one painful face shot or twenty..

Events are a nice comfortable mask and easy lense change..

If i was you i'd go for a second hand reloader, it'll do the job perfectly for you and will set you back £30ish to your door. Yeah they can be a pain to clean but nearly everybody used one untill the rotor and proph came out. Gogs are personal choice, again get a secondhand set and buy a new lense to cut back costs.
