I dunno. When I was a kid, we got to the deer blind way early before light, and my dad said I could take a nap and he'd wake me when it got light. Well, at first light, he saw a nice buck and shot it. He may claim that he didn't want me to startle upon waking and scare the deer away, but I think he just wanted to see how high I'd jump when he fired the .308 inside that tin blind. Well, surprise... I didn't even wake up. He woke me after shooting and told me he'd shot a deer and I said he was lying. Couldn't believe it. And it didn't affect my hearing at all, regardless of what my wife says.seamusTX wrote:To avoid hearing damage.
I'm pretty sure if you discharge a centerfire pistol in an enclosed space, you're going to have some permanent hearing loss and probably ringing in your ears for a few days.
I don't understand why police departments didn't make them standard years ago.
