The goggles would probably be allowed, I'm guessing they're polycarb lenses; however they aren't ballistically rated (ANSI, MIL-STD). 340fps doesn't mean much considering the CQB limits in most places is 350 and outdoor limits is usually 400, and above 400 when dealing with sniper rifles. They "might" be okay, but do you really want to risk finding out the hard way they weren't?

They seam like a better build quality?

One of the Dragons bought a pair of ESS clones which we put through the 400 FPS "test" from 6ft the other week. The goggle lens had one dent and a small crack after putting about 10 rounds to it. Now he is hoping that the real ballistically rated ESS lenses will fit to replace the china crap that came in his mail.
