29-12-2008 10:44pm#1Review of The Howard Leight Impact Sport Earmuffs that I got a while back but only got to try them out at the range now.
They are neat and tidy and fold up into the head band to make for a small package when not in use. I found them very comfortable to wear without them becoming to tight on my head or over ears. A good slim design so it did not hit off the gun stock. On/Off/Volume switch is a neat thumbwheel design. It also had an input for MP3 player or radio.
When turned off and used as an ear defender they work very well in fact I found them better than the standard pair of ear defenders that I would usually wear at keeping out the noise.
When turned on I could hear small talk at the far end of the range so they amplified the sound very well. When a shot was fired they did exactly what they were designed to do and shut down the speakers so they acted as just an ear defender. And when I say “when a shot was fired” I was on the next bench from where a 308 with a muzzle break was being used and I was getting all the blast of the report.
Total cost to the door was €67 . I E-mailed them to get a shipping Coupon code to reduce the shipping costs.
I ordered from:

Good recommendation Clive. Where did you get the coupon code from. Showing as invalid when I'm tying to order. Working out at $110.
