What do ya'll use? I have glasses now and need to go to plugs but the ones they sell at Wal-Mart suck. What is a better option?

I use these. They fit with glasses.

If I'm using plugs I just used GI earplugs.

I really recommend muffs for the range. Easier to put on and take off. You can still have a conversation and hear pretty clearly with them.

The glasses take away a lot of the hearing protection because there is an airway to let sound in

I shoot a lot of sporting clays and am never in a blind alone during duck season and had the same problem when I had to get glasses. Got my plugs from these guys. They are great. Put them in and forget them no adjusting no tucking back in. Don't know if they are in your area as well but sure someone around you does these.

Indoors I wear muffs, outdoors I wear plugs.

foam plugs with Caldwell electronic muffs. Can still hear conversation, and have extra hearing protection of both. No need to take muffs off either. I wear with glasses.

I use double ear pro indoors. Plugs or muffs outdoors.

I second the powered muffs. Amplifies conversation while blocking out all the harmful noise. Money well spent.

I wear my Rx sunglasses at the outdoor range I go to, and my muffs fit over them fine. Indoors I double up and use some of the "nicer" earplugs. The ones that sort of have a T-shape to them. Skinny to go in the ear and flare out at the end into your ear cavity.

Behind the neck ear muffs



I use these. I'm not a fan of the plastic piece that goes over your head.

No. I'm not a fan either. Strongly prefer outdoor.

Ear plugs with ear muffs. Indoor ranges hurt my ears. I don't like them.

I don't get it. Why would I spend $139.90 on a twin pack when I can get one for $47.67?? Wouldn't I just buy 2 and spend $94?
