I've heard hearing protection is a good place to start.

put some cheese sticks into your ears.
once you're done, you can eat them.

Just saw Black Label Society and I feel like it was louder than that. I had to wear ear pro. Also, buy a parrot to toughen your ears up so the gunshots won't hurt.

Meditation to solidify your ear drums

There's a thread for questions like these.

Nice. Seen them twice, forgot ear protection both times.

>Prevent hearing loss
Take up knitting instead

Electronic muffs over plugs. This isn't rocket science.

Howard Leight Sport earmuffs with Noisefighters gel cups. You can get the upgraded muffs, but either way I strongly recommend the Noisefighters. I only have 2 sets of Noisefighters-upgraded muffs and now I hate it when I take 3 people to the range because we keep needing to trade out because headaches suck.

illegal(for the most part) in my country

would love to have one tho

will try this, thanks

Nigga have you heard a squealing pig up close?

That shit is loud as hell. And piercing too.

Solvent traps

Can confirm

You wont find any active shooter that doesnt have some degree of hearing damage after many years of shooting. And they all have been wearing the best ear pro that was available.

The only difference is that some people are retarded enough to have used inferior ear pro for the first years like Howard Lights or in ear plugs and once they discovered they have permanent damage it was too late.

I have ear ringing in silence and so do both my siblings and have they have never done anything that should give hearing damage.

give me a quick rundown in parrot ownership

Ear ringing isnt only caused by inner ear damage caused by repeated exposure to loud noises.

Do you like screaming and your stuff covered in shit?

Well for some reason I get EEEEE then. I take good care of my hearing though ever since post 14 years of age or so. Recently I did do something stupid that might have harmed my hearing, peer pressure and all that, however when I shoot I double up even with .22 and only shoot out doors.

Hell I was even looking for a ccw option with low blast and noise to reduce my chance of hearing damage if I had to use a gun.

I’m not staunchly opposed

Have you consulted an ear doctor for your problem, is your ear tube clear of ear wax?
(Ear wax buildup can give you a very light EEEE in silence, I had it myself was stressing me out thinking I have damaged my hearing already.)

No. I havent gone to doctor. Considering my siblings, one in particular, echo the same thing I say in silence that I hear I just assumed it was one of those things.

For instance very noticable if I'm wearing earplugs in silence. I havent checked for wax buildup either , and frankly I'm unsure if there is a safe way for me to do that.

Cover your VAGINA!!! You fuckin pussy!

Condition your ears to withstand loud noises by being near jet/rocket engines.

Keep your mouth closed and wear something to pinch your nostrils. A surprising amount of sound goes up those holes.

>heard hearing protection
>heard
I see the problem hear

You should visit a specialised doctor for ears.
Ear wax build up is inevitable especially when you are using in ear plugs for a prolonged time.

DO NOT try to remove ear wax yourself or by someone that is not a doctor.
Professionally cleaning out your ears is done by flushing with warm water and using a tiny vacuum cleaner, it is done in under 5min for both ears and shouldnt cost much.
Then you can have an Audiometry done to measure what your hearing is capable of today to determine if you have damage and on what level.

When i did professional cleaning my hearing was reborn it was the better than sex.

Bigly responsibility. And I really mean that. If you can't give a parrot at least 2 hrs of your time a day (playing, hanging out on the couch, singing duets, etc) they will likely get depressed and possibly pluck their feathers. They are like a 10 yo child with a knife attached to their face. They will destroy everything they can and shit on everything else. But they are the smartest pet ever. they have distinct personalities and are more like adding another person to the family than a pet. Proceed with caution.

So you get hearing test and the cleaning done at the same time? I dont know of any audiologists anywhere close but I might do it some day. Theres a lot of shit I should do though

I'm a different user but I have a suggestion too. Get your thyroid levels checked. I know it's a niche possibility, but if your thyroid is underactive or overactive, you'll experience persistent ringing. Do you ever have moments where you're in the quiet and suddenly get a big ring out of nowhere, like a firecracker just went off near you?

Depends on the breed as well some require more attention than others. Cockatoos are obnoxious as fuck don't get those.

85db is too loud when it's constant, impulse noises are okay up to 115db iirc. A daisy red ryder bb gun is about 100db when fired.

What is the absolute best earpro available? Not the best shooting earpro, just the best period for blocking out sound that you can actually wear on your head. Is there some sort of industrial earpro bubble helmet for some kind of job that gets absurdly loud?

Yes first cleaning, than testing of your hearing ability.

Wrong. I have no hearing damage.

>cant listen to squealing pigs without going deaf
Fuck now how will I spend my Thursdays

A herd of squealing pigs genuinely sounds like the pits of hell.
I mean there PROBABLY is, for the price of an arm and a leg. Normal people just double up.
Shit like that can be kinda tricky to find outside of things like Uline catalogs or whatnot.

BASED! Also, superior AK!

Embrace the eeeeeee, glowniggers and interdimentional aliens can't decrypt your thoughts through the firewall tone of tinnitus.

No one cares about you however.

>Cockatoos are obnoxious as fuck don't get those.
stfu nigger. cockatoos are based af. they're amazing.

>grain dryer
>pig squeals
ok where the hell is this chart from

You can buy a chinese oil filter and call it a fashion accessory, just don't show it to anyone because they will call you a faggot and call the fashion police.

Your mom squeling while I fist her from behind hits over 120db, thats hand drill + pig.

>Getting upset that the headbanging birb is annoying after inevitable brain damage.

Not that user but That happens to me sometimes is it thyroid related my family has problems with that stuff

cockatoos are poorfag birbs for people who think they have a parrot and are to poor to admit they have a shitty animal with no emotions.

>TFW I sleep with my Macaw every night and snuggle non stop with her.

There is a reason flaming pigs were used in warfare.

Howard Leight is trash buy Peltor/3m for lower price muffs

Macaws snuggle like dogs. It's the best.

Heard they work great against enemy elephants.

No mine is just constant ringing in silent.

get a female cockatiel if you want something cool yet not smart/active enough to cause trouble.

Seriously lmao shit looks like it came from the future farmers of America
>careful there Billy that combine will make you deaf in no time

I 100% despise over ear hearing protection, these things are the best purchase I've ever made related to guns. Either them or the Surefire EP7.

30% of the world has tinnitus. Its caused by a lot of things but what prevents it from healing is cell towers, wifi, bluetooth, fm/am, icrw etc.

If that many have it it definitely has to be something that didnt exist when humans were evolving and doesnt exist naturally. What makes you say its those things though?

potentially
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14628312
but I don't know if it's all of that or if I'm using a bad source

Its hard to tell, I think its a possibility. But you won't hear it confirmed unless its undeniable. The establishment types will always try to discredit anything that would cause a large shift.

I read a pamphlet on the subject. Causes a lot of thing. Electric radiation is no joke

It's not my fault you made a stupid statement.

It's possible. I'm not a doctor, but I don't have a thyroid anymore. If I mess up the medicine I use to keep my metabolism going, either by taking my pills too close together or too far apart causing my hormone levels to spike or fall, I get a very specific ringing. A sudden ring, without a specific stimulus. Get your thyroid levels checked.

I have a pair of Sennheiser headphones get as loud as a chainsaw.

One of the best investments I’ve ever made

How about money? Do you have lots of it and have no idea about what to spend it on? Do you want a pet that will probably outlive you? If you can afford it and want to be an absolute bastard to your kids, get a bird.

Just kidding about those parts. Try a small parrot, like a budgie or a cockatiel. They're cute and cuddly and sing when they're happy. They also live about 30 years if you're lucky and they're not too expensive either.

Wow even table saws are enough?
