What do you think of wearing hearing protection while in a SD situation at home?
***Specifically, I'm thinking of those electronic muffs that still allow you to hear regularly, NOT standard ear protection that kills your hearing***
I think its safe to say that a few rounds from a handgun fired inside once in a lifetime won't cause deafness, but what about a 12ga?
Would it be entirely nuts to keep a pair of those electronic hearing protectors for SD?
How well do they work anyway?
**Obviously, you likely wouldn't wear anything if you were clearing house (I think you'd need all the hearing you can get; wouldn't want ANY obstruction at all) but say if you were holed up in a room with your family, and BG started pounding the door down. Wouldn't it be safe to use ear protection then???**
