Inexpensive hearing protectors!!!
I was at a local Habror Freight store the other day and they had plain, red and black earmuff type hearing protectors for $1.99 a pair! These aren't Peltors or anything like that but they do a good job of saving your hearing and they are cheap enough that you could give them away at the range and not get hurt to badly. I gave away 3 pair just yesterday to some fellows that didn't have any hearing protection and they promised that they would go buy a few pair and give they to some body else. I don't know if they will or not but it is a good gesture.
P.S. I don't work for Harbor freight or have anything to do with their business, just a customer.

Wondering what db they are rated for, any idea?
My ears are worth the cost of a decent pair of protecctors, not saying these arn't decent, but I am hesitant to buy until I know. |

I think he's advising grabbing a pair as throw-aways for your range bag, which isn't a bad idea.
