Pick your plug
| Type | Best for |
|---|---|
| Foam | Cheap, high NRR and easy to toss in a range bag by the box |
| Reusable silicone | Washable plugs you can carry on a lanyard or in a case |
| Electronic earbuds | Hearing conversation and range commands with nothing over your ears |
Roll foam plugs thin, then hold them in place while they expand. A plug that is not seated deep enough protects far less than its rating.
Brands like Axil, Walker's, Pro Ears, Howard Leight, Peltor, Radians and Pyramex, with more added as stock comes in.
Ear Plug FAQ
Do I need ear protection with a suppressor?
Yes for most guns and loads. A suppressor lowers the report, but most suppressed centerfire rifles and pistols are still loud enough to damage hearing. Plugs or earbuds are a common pick here.
Can I wear earbuds under muffs?
Yes. Many shooters wear plugs or earbuds under muffs indoors or with loud calibers for extra protection.
