This product did absolutely nothing to block loud noise at shooting range!
Sound amplification was great if you like to hear the gravel crunch under your feet retrieving you target.
Makes a good hearing aid but doesn’t protect your ears.
Don’t waste your money.

I am learning how to shoot a handgun and was in search for a good set of ear muffs because I am very jumpy and hearing gun fire makes me jump. I bought these based on the reviews. However, I was disappointed with them. They do not cuff my ear very well. The biggest disappoint was that the sound of the gun fire was not muffled anymore with the ear muffs turned on than when they were turned off!!! While my friend fired 380, 45, and 40 calibur weapons, I would turn them on and off to see if there was a difference and there was none! I was expecting a noticable difference.
On the plus side, the sound enhancement worked well and I was able to hear my friend talking w/o having to take them off and I could turn them up and hear leaves rustling. So that part works well.
These are probably the cheapest ear muffs of this type so i guess you get what you pay for. I am contemplating returning them and getting a pair of Peltor Optime 105 H10A which is rated for 30 decibels. I got a pair for my son and though I haven’t taken them to the range, they did reduce more sound than these as far as general noise in the room. They are more comfortable and fit my ears well. Plus they are only $20.

After owning 2 pairs of Peltor Comtacs, these feel cheap.
The mics don’t pickup well and have quite a bit of hiss on the high end of the volume.
Sound cutout isn’t very crisp.
Not too bad for ~50, hopefully they will last longer than some of the other reviews I found online.

I bought this as a gift and my son has been very pleased with it. I would recommend.

I had high hopes for these ear muffs after reading all of the sparkling reviews, but I am glad that I had some ear plugs in my range bag to supplement the poor hearing protection that these provide. Yes, they do a great job of amplifying. I found, however, that at an indoor range with many people shooting that the electronic dampening was almost always activated . I was still sticking an ear next to peoples mouths so I could hear them speak to me. As far as being able to hear range commands, that wasn’t a problem as they were amplified as they usually are at a gun range. Kind of feel misled about their effectiveness. I should’ve gone with instincts as I wondered how could something so thin work at the level that many have claimed in these reviews. I’ll be back to stuffing my ungainly – but effective – 3M’s into my bag. I only hope I can return these to Amazon for a refund.
