Where to buy a paintball mask?

I'm going to play paintball this friday. I haven't played in a LOOONG time, and I don't have any equipment. I'm not planning on buying a gun, but I'm thinking about buying a mask... my friend said something about a "JT thermal mask".

Where's a good place to buy one? (prefer near mountainview)

Any recommendations as far as the model and style?

(I wear glasses)

Thanks for the offer but if I buy one, I want one with the JT thermal lense.

pay the extra for a thermal mask. If you do not, you will get fogged up. In the summer is not as bad, but in the winder, if you do not have the thermal lense, then you will have a problem.

JTs are good masks, When I played we were sponsored by Ventz, but when I played rec ball, I used my JT masks.

how long ago did you play before.. and where?
