DIY ear plugs

[MudBugjr]

Does anyone use the plugs that you mold to your ear. The one where you mix the putty and then it dries like rubber? Just curious picked some up on clearance for 9$. Molded them last night. just curious how they would work when shooting outdoors.

Where did you get it?

I've seen them at Wally World. Never tried them though.

If I am short on plugs, a couple of spent .38 or .45 shells typically do the trick in a pinch.

Went to Wally World picke up very lil ammo. On the way out saw the sporting goods clearance isle. Just so happened to see a few boxes. Thought for 9 bucks worth a try.

Let us know how they work out.

$24 for a box containing 200 pairs of 30dB reduction disposable plugs. I keep at least one box in the house at all times.

FYI, 19dB is nowhere NEAR enough for the impulse transients you find in most firearms. You need at least 30dB broadband NR for most anything bigger than a .22lr.

Trust me here, I have to know this as my career depends on my ears.

I know while I was letting them set up in my ears it blocked out the kids wife and tv. Worth the 9$ right there. Just look at them and nodd

I found the molded one's weren't quite as good old fashioned cheap plugs.

Everytime I try some fancy earmuff or electronic muff system, I just find myself wanting to go back to good old foam plugs. Easy, cheap, and they don't mess up my sexy hair! (Plus my ears don't get all sweaty and they don't get in the way when I'm shooting rifles!)
