Hi Ed. Don't feel bad I gaurantee you are not the only one who has done that or even the first. Many years ago (1979) my dad got me my first handgun, a 6" Colt Python. It was for my job (armed security officer). Well I was young and stupid and wanted to try the gun out. I fired 6 rounds of Remington 125 SJHP 38 SPEC+P through it with no hearing protection. That was my first and last time doing that. My ears rang for a week. Now that I'm older and hopefully a little wiser I won't fire on any range with hearing protection. The only time I would fire without it is an actual defensive shooting situation or when hunting.
