Great deal at $40. See a lot of guys using these. In fact, last time I went shooting in the desert with a few colleagues all four of us had the same headphones.

just placed an order with Amazon for these Electronic Headphones .... they should be here day after tomorrow .... suggestions appreciated

Solid choice. Won't be disappointed.

as compared to the bulkier regular shooting earmuffs I've been using, I like the fact that they appear to be rather think .... thanks again for the recommendation

I just got a nice set of the Howard Leight by Honeywell. Camo impact sport it says on the box. They work great at the range. $70 Canadian. Amplifies low level sound up to 4 times, and filters out the harmful stuff. Very light and comfortable.

Was thinking about what to buy my mom for Christmas and remembered this thread! I bought her a pair of the Howard Leight Impacts along with some other shooting accessories. She likes her S&W Model 60 and trap shooting with her Beretta...

just got back from the range .... fired 100 44 Mags, a few 30-06's, something over 100 223's, and a bucket full of 9 mm's .... must say I'm impressed with the new hearing protection .... very comfortable to wear, excellent protection from muzzle blast while allowing me to hear all of the things I wanted to hear .... am already asking myself, Why didn't I get some of these years ago ?

Thanks for the report, JEBar; and for the recommendation, JCN. I think I'll give them a try, too. I like that they can also be used with my tablet to listen to movies, videos, or music. Just added them to my cart.

I love mine, they make the range even more enjoyable if that's possible!

I really wish I had them during the time I spent every possible minute hunting ..... decades ago I tried some electronic ear plugs that never did live up to their sales hype .... I was really impressed with this set at being able to determine the direction from which the sound was coming
