How are you shooting a shotgun with no Ear Pro?

Tinnitus.

It’s super fun, silence is overrated anyways.

Drowns out the bad thoughts.

Mine drowns out the wife and kids too.

Got paid for it as well since mine’s work related (thank you m777 for the forever gift). One day I’ll discover the downside maybe.

Shotguns arent loud. Rifles require plugs at the minimum though.

They're loud AF. I have a feeling you've got some hearing dmg lol. I forgot my earpro once and it rang by fucking skull. I just had my Worksafe hearing test 3 months ago and it's perfect.

I think you've done some real dmg friend.

You're getting hearing damage, it is incremental. I work for an audiology company. You will regret it when you get older.

I work underground and get quarterly hearing tests. I'm well aware of the implications, I appreciate your concern however.

I can't even find a $300 gun from their catalog.

u/TheOriginalFarmboy 6d ago

It was supposed to say $3000 however I am stupid and don't proof read things.

Turk clones are good enough for mag dump posts on social media

I wouldn't trust my life with it, but anything that can eat economy shells like that is worth the $250 to me.

I wanted to for MW2 nostalgia, but ended up ordering the BullTac semi instead.

Brother I literally do not care what you think.

You seem to quite a bit!

I had a Turkish semi auto, worked great for about a year and a half then it all went to hell. Almost threw it into the lake when I couldn't get a follow up shot on a crippled duck

u/TheOriginalFarmboy 6d ago

I definitely wouldn't bet a day of hunting on it, at least not without a backup. But if I can blast clays and targets in the back 40 and not care if it gets banged around or dropped, thats worth it for me. God knows I've spent more on stupider shit.

u/SBeauLife 6d ago

Hell yeah bro, if that's what you're using it for, enjoy it!
