Has anyone tried this product? It is supposed to increase your ability to hear and also protect your ear from the loud muzzle blast.
If you have, please state your opinion and maybe a price range.

Thanks

Mine did the opposite, it enhanced the gunshot, and dampened everything else. I love it!

It's a peice, It just makes you over react to all the little noises, and it sometimes takes about 30 seconds to get working again after the shot, so its just a ear plug, and hearing where it goes after you shoot at it is very important.

It all depends on the price. If it's not too much, try it. People have different tastes...that's the downfall of user opinions....

Why are you finishing off every post with your name? As far as gaming ears go just use your own, it hightens the senses and makes you a more efficent hunter.

Gander mountain > Cabellas as far as I'm concerned.

In reality though, I have just started wearing ear protection when I shoot. 10 years of reenacting, 15 years of recreational shooting, building and shooting homemade cannons and fireworks, my hearing is all but shot.

The only plus is, My girlfriend is very understanding my hearing loss, as her father suffers from the same thing, so I can tell her "Sorry honey, I didn't hear you say that." and I get away with it.
