2 questions:

Can I buy the Mirror lens sepretly, and if I can where?

Where can I find the best price if I buy the Mirror Morph?

one more question, is the V-Force morph lens not thermal? I know that they dont fog but is that because of superior venting etc and not relying on a antifog chemical on the lens?
if it is then that would alow amazingly easy cleaning :)

Yes you can buy just a Mirrored lens.
No, I don't know where.
None of the VForce lenses are thermal.
All of the VForce lenses rely on antifog solution.
Yes the antifog solution is built into the lens.
No, they still don't fog.

No, Just a simple mistake.

It's www.dropzonepaintball.com

can you buy the flexy part of the morph separately for the sheild version?

I'm about 99% positive that you can't. Even if you could the shield has hard plastic in the areas where the bouncy stuff would go. It would take some serious sawing to get it to work.

the lense isn't therml obviously, but the reason it doesn't fog is because the lense is thermo-cured. which means that the anti-fog chemical is already in the lense or something similar to that.

Any store that sells V-force products should have mirrored lenses, if they don't ask, and they should be able to get them.

Nope, they have an Anti-Fog coating on the inside. If you are brutal on you mask, it can start peeling off or wrinkle. This does take a lot of effort. The reason it's not Thermal is you can't make an optically correct Thermal lens, the dual lens design provides distortion, and is almost impossible to make with the compound curves inherent in the V-Forse lens design. The JT and Scott lenses are only curved around 1 axis, the V-Force lenses are curved around 2 axis' and a single point. So no optical distortion from the V-Force goggles.

Are the V-Force Lens that much more "optically correct" then the JT and Scott lens? Just curious if theres a difference.

It's not "More Optically Correct". The JT and Scott lenses aren't optically correct, this induces minor distortion when you aren't looking straight ahead, and may affect peripheral vision. The V-Force lens is optically correct, and does not have the distortion. Scott does make optically correct lenses for other sports, I beleive they offer them for Skiing/Snowboarding, but not yet for paintball, they are more difficult to make, and you can't make thermal lenses that are optically correct without prohibitive cost.
