She was wearing what I thought were the best ear muffs of the bunch, I had grown up wearing them. Between their age and the proximety of the weapon to her head she didn't have a chance. I have replaced every set I have and she wears plugs AND muffs now. So far only outside ranges. God bless her for her courage to keep shooting after that.
Complacency in old tried and true equipment is what weighs on me.

Re: Dangerous shooters at the range
The girls and I all went to Targetmaster and it was my eldest girl's turn. I gave her what I thought were the best muff and we went in. There was a yahoo in the next stall had a Model 500 and decided to step back from the divider to shoot while we were briefing. The blast caused my daughter to scream from the pain and her ear actually bled.
I jumped in the middle of this guy and then reported him to the management which had him removed but damage done. Any sharp noise on her right causes pain and IF I can get her to a range, it is small caliber and outside. The term I would use for this tool would definitely get me censored.
