Ear Protection .....

[Supercharged]

Thanks guys

I'm also a fan of Emtec Noisebreakers. Sensible money, very effective and comfortable to wear.

read a study that suggested the ear canal does not change in size as you get older, so you might be ok....

 

[Alan Rowley]

They are getting a bit loose round the lug holes, and starting to annoy me

I have to get mine done now....so.....names of companies that do moulded ear plugs are........?????

I know of Emtec and ProGuard......but does anyone know of others.

My last lot (done at a shoot) looked like chewing gum.....and I cannot remember the company who did them....????

Check on the internet , there is a company down Worthing area , Horsham???? that do moulded plugs and also the moulding with electronics in them, they are a hearing /audiology business.

If Emtec did electronics they would be the default company for me.

 I use Emtec plugs in Summer and Emtecs and Sordin Electronics together if cool enough / Winter Game shooting.

Thanks Pete...Emtec just rang me. I want the total block out not the electronic. I feel i have to have a good solid block out with some of the sorts around these days :wink:

Some points....

Had my plugs done at the krieghoff, excellent job

Don't see the point of electronic jobs as I don't want to hear anything

According to the bloke who did mine your ear canal does change over time so plugs need re-doing every few years (sounds reasonable to me)

It is my belief that weight loss or gain can effect ear shape/size, so it is probably a good idea to check hearing protection moulded plug fit about every ten years?.

I've just bought a pair of Plugzz, They were at the Shotgun & Chelsea Bun Conference and doing a roaring trade. Entry price is £50, and you can send them back and have valves put in if you no longer want total block out. You can also pick from any number of colours. www.plugzz.co.uk

I am very happy with my £8 HERTZ DIY moulded plugs. I stuffed up when making them on my first attempt, but luckily you get enough for two pairs.
