Gray Hare, SASS #20821 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Was looking at some of the electronic hearing protection. Which brand do you like and why? Thanks, Gray Hare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Fire, SASS 10064 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 A friend and fellow shooter recommended Otto engineering brand to me. I purchased a pair from Amazon when they ran a sale. They are expensive but are comfortable and effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooting Bull Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I've read great things about the AKT1 Sport Ear Buds. As long as Santa doesn't find out about those couple of incidents over the Summer I might have a chance of finding a pair in my stocking. Will report back if/when I have more info.

G W Wade Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Marshall Fire recommendation of Otto Noizebarrier ear buds is right. Expensive but highly regarded. I have Axil Ghost Strikes that have been good and bad. Biggest thing is finding the silicone tip that fits your ear for the best results. Great for hearing "MOUSE FARTS" and range commands, but not the best protection for regular shooting at an indoor range GW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Seamus Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I had a pair of Axil wired ear buds. They were one of the best I had. Unfortunately they died after about a year and a half. I tried Walkers wired ear buds. They were OK but didn't last. I'm currently using fitted ear plugs fitted with a Walkers Game Ear. They work well but the Axil's were still the best. .

Von Dutch, SASS # 7995 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I have Peltor TEP-100 by 3M I got about 6 years ago I really like them, dropped one not long ago and that screwed it up, so I had to buy a replacement. They are not cheap, but they have given me good service and they are made in the USA, I use them for cowboy and sporting clays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uriah, SASS # 53822 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I use Walker's Silencer 2.0 Bluetooth Rechargeable Electronic Ear Plugs (NRR 24dB). Shooting and lawn mowing. With the Bluetooth capability, I use them for music and audiobooks at the gym and my loading room. Uriah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Rick Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I have been wearing Otto NoizeBarrier Micro earplugs for several years. They are expensive, as noted earlier. They carry/storage case has a battery and keeps a very good charge. I wear the earplugs twice a month and probably plug the storage case in every 2-3 months. I also prefer to use the Comply Ear Tips.

Cholla, two years ago I found my ear plugs in Bordertown lost and found!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Dan Blodgett, SASS #75655 Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 I bought walkers mostly because I could get them for $69 on sale about a year ago as I recall. They work good and hold a charge well no problem shooting a 6 stage match on a charge. You may want to take this with a grain of salt as I am cheap enough to shoot mossberg pumps and rifles as well as tisas 1911 commanders vs proper more expensive models.
