Yah know, I never knew such things existed. But it explains a lot.
I have been to the range before, and everyone there firing their various weapons. Obviously a large bore revolver makes more noise than a .22 Lr.
But there is a normal level of noises to be expected. Every now and then, there will be someone shooting something just unGodly loud. Beyond anything you ever heard before that is hand held, or (civillian) shoulder fired.
And I got to say, knowing that someone made their weapon louder, ON PURPOSE, for no reason other than ....(you fill in the blank), makes me madder than Hello.
If you want to screw your hearing up, thats your business. But stay away from the rest of us.
I wear hearing protection, but its good for normal shooting noises. Not for some thing designed to be intentionally louder than an already loud weapon.
