Hey everybody,
I recently got some advice to try out some shooting glasses and I wanted to know your opinion on both Varga glasses and Knobloch glasses. I shoot both 10m air rifle and 3 pos smallbore. Also, I am not rich, so the varga's will be better for my budget, but if the knobloch's are worth the extra money, i can splurge to get them.
When I started shopping for my glasses I did not know that Knobloch had a lower end model. The only one I was aware of was the model that Champions Choice carries. I called Neal Stepp at ISS and he set me up with the entry level model Knoblochs. I think they are about $140 without the lens. You can check out knobloch's website to compare models but from I could see the main difference was that the lower end model nose piece does not adjust. But since you can adjust the lens this lack of adjustment has not been a problem.
I have both brands made for pistol shooting. I have used them for several years. They work equally well. If you get a chance, check out the Champion Olympic glasses. They seem to be beefier than either the Varga or Knobloch.

Talk to Neal Stepp. He can walk you through it and he can get lenses for you as well. I bought a bunch of lenses from him for both Knobloch & Champion glasses.
