    You can get most any type of quality hearing protection at any welding supply store. Thats where I bought my muffs at.

    I get mine at Walley World, been looking at the muffs also.
    How do you like the Judge?? My son has one and I can't hit the side of a barn with it.

    I shot 4 rounds of 000 (4 -000 per shell) at a stump about 30 yards away..The snow is still deep here which allowed Doris to see where I hit..:D I had my eyes closed after the first shot.. She said there might have been 2 shot that hit the stumpbut snow was flying all around the stump..:D

    I would hate to have to fire this thing in close quarters....

    I think that's were it would be the best ( not the noise :D) I think with the rifling (spelling??) in the barrel for the 45LC, that at a short distance the 410 shot should spread about right. Maybe 5 to 7 yards with a good pattern.
    I love the look of the gun.

    I always thought you were supposed to keep your eyes open when firing a gun!

    I find the muffs to be much more comfortable and I believe they offer better protection too. I can't get a dang ear plug to stay in my ears for nothin'.

    I have the 45/410 single shot they call it a "bedroom" gun, accuracy with the shot shell or .45 long colt is very limited past 10-15 feet. The rifiling of the barrel really spreads the .410 shot out quickly and the .45 slug starts tumbling almost as soon as it leaves the barrel, the effects of a tumbling .45 slug on human flesh ain't pretty!

    Guns, shooting and fishing have been my passion for about all of my 57 years, so I know a little about these subjects. Bullets from any quality made gun do not tumble when they leave the bore. Anybody who can't hit the broad side of a barn doe's not need a handgun of any kind. Maby even a playing card at 15FT. Anybody has to close their eyes when they shoot maby just need to call 911 in an emergency. Just my two cents worth.

    Don't get up tight, just making a joke....Maybe you need change for your two cents.
