Cynthia, the Howard Leight R-03318 are great, not needing batteries and not needing ear plugs. I prefer this one over my more expensive one that needs batteries.

It works well. There are other forms of ear protection that muffle it a bit more, bit with that the trade off is, you can't hear people talk as well. The Sports do very well at cutting out the initial crack of the gun fire. At least....I think they do. The benefits such as low profile ear muffs, great amplification for talking and good battery life really add to the overall value of the muffs. At our range..most RAnge Officers wear the Howard Leighton Sports. If that helps...!

I use them to mow the lawn. They work as well as any other noise reducing ear muffs, but won't fit if you have a really big head.

The turn knob on the rear of the right ear protector controls the on/off as well as the volume of the built-in microphones. When this in turned off, they will work as non-electric earmuffs which are rated at 23 NNR.

Why not try firearm suppression ear muffs. Some models are much cheaper and should do the trick, some are fairly large although comfortable. Alternatively use the in-the-ear foam ear plugs. Search Amazon for "Smith and Wesson ear muffs" or "noise reducing ear plugs".

I use banded low profile ear pro , it works have not used large muffs ( like air line ramp guys) the style I use is on a band with plug that fits in ear this option for me is better as the pro is always around my neck when not in use give this option a try you will find you will use pro more ? Hope this helps

Are not electronic suppressor style and do not use batteries. They encase your ear and just muffle the sound.

I fire pistols. However, due to existing hearing loss I use ear plugs and the 3M H10A. It is very comfortable and very effective in this manner. Both my wife and I use this model.

The PASSIVE Noise Cancelling model does NOT require batteries. Only the ACTIVE Noise Cancelling needs batteries. The PASSIVE version has an audio plug on both sides.

Wouldn't know. I've never tried earmuffs. On an airline flight to was fabulous in cancelling the engine hum that is ever-present.

Don't know. I can say that I still need ear plugs while shooting indoor. The reverberation is terrible. I guess a better question is, will all the equipment be as loud as an indoor shooting range. Good luck.

I lost one and could not find one on line. Went through all my old headphone mini plugs until I found one that worked. Now I have several replacements. Hope you find one. That are great stun guns for the price.

These do not take batteries, they are not radio headphones they are just noise muffling for shooting guns or noisy environments.

Yes, they can be used for shooting or hunting, but please use the pair with the higher protection filter. LiveMus!c HearSafe offers very good protection against high impact sounds and noise, while retaining speech and conversations without having to take off your earplugs and not having the isolated feel of earmuffs or foam earplugs.

The noise reduction with these is better than the tactical sport version. I have compared them side by side as a friend has the TS model. I regularly shoot at an indoor pistol range and the Pro model works very well. My friend "doubles up" using foam ear plugs in addition to the TS model shooting indoors. I think the extra cost is worth the additional protection.

I've turned off the power to the Ear Muffs and you can't hear much. I guess they are about the same as a non-powered ear muff. But with the power on and set, they work great. you hear everyone around you, but when there is a gun bang, it shuts most of it out. I don't know how they do it, but it works great!
