Electronic Ear Muffs

[The Pistoleer]

I have decided to get some and was wondering if anyone had any experince with them.  I will mostly use them for gun hunting.  I want some that will amplify the sound since my hearing is pretty bad.

What features should I look for and compare when looking?

I see that Pro-Ears has 2 types.  The Dimension 1 and the Dimension 2.  The Dem 2s have a input jack which allows the plugging in of a radio.  My sons and I do keep in touch by FRS radios so that might be a good feature.  Is this needed?



Any help will be appreciated.

I went to replace the ones I had for years with a set of Remington 2000. My pup chewed on the ear piece and when I went to replace the plastic ear pad I found they had to be ordered from England!!!!  The shipping for the pad was about four times the price of the pad!!!!  If you buy a set make sure they are MADE IN THE USA. If I had known they were made in England I would never had bought them.   One good thing was that I was soooo mad at Remington I blew my top with them to enough of their reps that after I had replaced the ear piece Remington Customer Service told me to send them back and they refunded me the purchase price + tax. I now have a set of Peltor Tactical 7. They are a bit more bulky but  they are a better quality set. Besides I can get parts here in the USA. Good luck.
  Have Fun,
