So I'm thinking of getting into some electronic ear-pro and (like everyone else) am hesitating at spending $200-$250 for Sordins and I'm leaning towards the $65-$75 Peltor 6S'. I know the Sordin's are better from the reviews I've read but since I'm not using the muffs on a daily basis I'm hoping the peltors would fit the bill. So the other questions are: 1) WTH is up with Radians - are they any good or just a crappy Peltor knock-off 2) Do the Peltor "behind the ear" muffs work? They seem really awkward. Thanks in advance, Mike |

FYI, My last shippment of Peltor TAC-6 muffs (the $70ish ones) had a failure/return rate of almost 50%. I told my rep that I was not going to stock them until I heard something positive about the QC for the product. Still waiting.......... Zero complaints on the Sordin/MSA muffs. www.TriadTactical.com |

www.pro-ears.com/ I have two sets of these and they have been great for all kinds of shooting and have good battery life. |

Is there a set out there that you can plug an MP3 player into? I think I saw one of these out there (in a different thread I mean). I get bored shooting by myself and wanted to know if they're worth it, if you can modify a set of Peltor Tac 6 muffs that'd be useful too. As usual, an information is appreciated. |

^^ If you saw the same one I did... He had an FM-thingy on his IPod and FM receiver muffs. I have some 30$ cheapies I got from Gander Mtn. They're pretty good. I've used them for ~30h without the two batteries dying. They work very well for the price. Every so often I get a little electronic noise but it goes away. I'm no tactical shooter, but I do enjoy hearing after I get back from the range. Only problem is after 2+ hours straight they start to hurt my ears. I was always against things that require batteries, but after I used them, I love them. I let four of my friends borrow them and they're sold on electonic muffs now. |
