General Forum / Re: Hearing ProtectionLast post by crow - Today at 01:56:08 PMI bought the Tetra custom fit last year, i have some hearing loss so just getting back to normal hearing would have been fine. Mainly wanted them for gunshot protection with out blocking off my hearing like regular plugs would do.
The pro's, they did muffle gunshots very well. Was able to course gobble direction " " Could hear distant gobbles and stuff walking in dry leaves better. The negatives, overall didn't like them as much as expected. They distorted calling much more than expected, it did muffled suction yelper volume, but also distorted the sound, hard to tell how good you were calling. Diaphragm calls about same as a trumpet. Longbox yelps were not muffled but amplified to an uncomfortable level and again hard to tell the quality of your calling. I compromised by wearing just one in my left ear, and only wore them about half a day. They picked up distant gobbles but once they were coming but still far off gobbles were Very loud, making it very hard to tell how close or far they were, I did not like walking with them in at all, the noise was very distracting. Song birds were definitely amplified, some were annoyingly loud I'm sure some of the negatives would get better the more you get used to them. #84

General Forum / Re: 20 Gauge Franchi Affinity ...Last post by Ondavirg - Today at 12:40:01 PMI have both. The barrel length isn't very noticeable but the weight is. Actually would sell the mossberg as it doesn't get used.
