[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 2919542, member: 14204"] With or without muzzle brakes, I always wear hearing protection. I have been using muzzle brakes since 2003. I also have suppressors. I spent my first 10 years in the USAF in the flightline sortie generation of F4s and A-10s ([USER=106845]@Petey308[/USER] , BRRRT 🤣), where I learned to protect my hearing. Back then, we were told to wear foamies + a headset because the noise level was very high (140dBs), especially during surges. Most of my friends had permanent hearing loss/damage because they did not take the necessary safety precautions. High dB, especially in prolonged exposure, is a recipe for hearing loss/damage. Many people think gunshot is the only time we need hearing protection, but that is not the case, at least not for me. [ATTACH type="full"]500094[/ATTACH] 1995 was the last time I worked on a flightline, but I kept those excellent habits today. I also wear personal protective equipment (gloves, eyeglasses, proper shoes, ear plugs) when operating household equipment/tools generating high noise levels, i.e., mower, snow blower, chain saw, leaf blower, etc. [/QUOTE]
