These are the less expensive at $33.62 each, some are $39 depends upon which thumbnail you click on. I have those and they work wonderfully. Also got some for my wife after I tried them out. Easy to have a conversation if needed. Used them extensively yesterday trap shooting on the farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmackc Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 Now for you guys ,like me, with a dab of hearing loss from too much Pow Ping thump and/or VAROOOOMing With the volume control turned up the Walker Razor thin electronic muff acts like a hearing aid. I can't hera the living room TV audio over here in my gun/computer room, but with the muff volume turned up I can hear the TV! You can't determine the direction of the sound, it is omnidirectional. BTW: The American flags are velcroed on , they come detached in the blister pac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtallen83 Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 Wife gave me a set of those Walker's Razor muffs, nice tight fit, sounded good, not as clear as some Caldwells I have but a better fit around the ear, smashed those wire frame glasses bows right flat. I really like these electronic muffs when it comes to having the younger ones on the range, big benefits if they can hear you talking to them. I wear plugs and muffs when shooting except 9mm and 300 BO suppressed, then just the plugs. I have that cursed ring in both ears now, been paying attention to ear protection for maybe 15 years, couple decades late I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMike Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 Curious if anyone has any experience using any of the electronic muffs or plugs for hunting. I tend to carry basic plugs and intend to put them in before I shoot. But time does not always allow. Trying to keep the hearing I have left. But need to hear what's moving around.

I would positively recommend the Pro Ears Stealth 28 HTs, or the Stealth 28 HT/BTs. The "BT" is bluetooth, if you want that. The BTs are about $179 MSRP, and the non-BT version is half that. I have the BTs, and they're amazing. My Walker Silencer 2.0s turned into backups in my chest rig, because of these Pro Ears.

The electonic ear muff work great for pistol but not so good with rifles. When you place you cheek on the stock it pushes up on the ear muffs breaking the seal. A bought a pair of stealth 28BT, the foam plugs seal better than the silicone ones but doen't last as long or clean as easily as the silicone plugs. Good news is replacement foams are cheap.

unforgiven Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 I used Howard Leigh replaced the ear cup with gel style with 3m plugs. After the second day the muffs with the glasses was annoying. I was checking out 98's setup something for me to consider, especially to wear a hat to protect from the sun.

MtnMike Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 Thanks for the input fellas. Easier to part with the $, when I can get some real input. Like the concept of the omnidirectional microphones (so you can tell where the sound is coming from) for hunting. Deer season in VA ended yesterday, which is latest of where I can hunt. Got some major mods on a few guns to do before next season - mainly optic upgrades on four different guns. But I also plan to replace a trigger on the DD, and put a lighter muzzle brake on the Wyndham. So I anticipate a fair amount of time at the range over the coming months. I'll try to get the new ears before that phase kicks in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMike Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Thought I'd follow-up on this topic after using the Pro-Ears Stealth 28HT for the last 4 days during muzzle loader season. In a nutshell, I like them and recommend them for hunting. If you crank them all the way up, I'd estimate you can hears things twice as far away as with the unaided ear. And, your hearing is well-protected. Fired 3 times, once from a fairly enclosed stand structure, and noticed no hearing discomfort afterwards at all. Only caveat is that a boisterous turkey vulture sounded a little bit like Godzilla. Takes a little bit of getting used to to separate the squirrels and the falling leaves from the careful steps of a whitetail. But really only a few minutes. The other unexpected benefit was that they made me much more conscious of my own noise. So they made me a more stealthy hunter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
