techmike Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Anyone try these? Got mine from CTD. These. One is curing in my right ear as I type. Mix the stuff like epoxy, push it in your ear and let it cure for 10 minutes. Going to try it out tomorrow.TM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 I wonder if that 3x expanding caulk foam would work? I don't think I'll try it, but I just know somebody out there in internet land has.You know, I had to go to the Doc one time. Thought I was going deaf in one ear. Turns out the earplug had pushed and compacted a wad of wax so tightly in my ear that I could barely hear anymore. I remember the nurse berating me while she was holding a water hose to my ear.

imschur Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 I messed up my ears a bit as a youth. It started with a fair amount of .308 shooting without protection followed by my first job where the factory was so loud I couldnt hear my radio at full volume. When the machines were off the radio was so loud it would hurt your ears.Today when shooting the minute I arrive at the range I place those yellow foam E.A.R plugs in. When I shoot I have a pair of Silencio Magnums or Dillon hearing protectors that I use on top of the foam plugs. My ears are so sensitive I cant be around a nail getting hammered in to wood without wanting to jump out of my skin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Ja, I started doubling up on ear protection when I worked with loud machinery, and I still do it to this day - plugs and muffs. My EDC also includes foam ear plugs, I carry them everywhere I go, just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 We had certain aircraft in the Air Force we were required to wear ear plugs and ear muffs if we were within so many feet. I wear both when shooting my 9mm or .45acps specially if I'm in our gun clubs close-in pistol bays because they have cinderblock walls and are only about 10 yards wide and hold the sound in.
