Are Repro Lunettes Unsafe?

Post by 17thAirborne » Tue Oct 03, 2017 7:33 am

I've been told that the reproduction cast lunettes being sold can be unsafe because they are not heat treated and made of different materials.

I am wondering what everyone's experiences are with these products?

Have any broken?

Do you take special precautions because of this?

Can the repro one's be heat treated after purchase?

This is totally out of my are of knowledge and I was hoping to see if anyone had addressed this issue before.

Thanks
