Stylish and rated for high-velocity impact protection, Magpul’s eyewear offerings were designed to meet the needs of outdoor athletes and enthusiasts, civilian shooters and armed professionals. The initial product lineup includes the (r. to l.) Summit, Explorer and Terrain glasses. Magpul’s Summit and Terrain offer the highest level of ballistic protection, strategically-placed overmolded pads and a frame designed for comfort and compatibility with ear protection, helmets and communications rigs—the only difference is the Summit’s slightly smaller frame size. The Explorer is a more casual, everyday design, but it still functions as eye protection and offers many of the same features as the other frames. All Magpul eyewear is available with scratch-resistant lenses internally treated to reduce reflections, and configurations include black, gray or tortoise frames paired with polarized or non-polarized lenses in a variety of colors and mirror finishes.
