I don't hunt, but there are also some low profile ear muffs that should not affect getting a proper cheek weld on the stock.

I've used two kinds, one that reduces the gunshot volume to a safe level, but you can still hear or another kind that cuts out the noise of the gunshot and the amplification resumes after the peak noise of the gunshot.

Well, they keep saying they want our gun laws to be more like Europe's, benEzra Apr 2016 #13

Most of them don't have a clue what the European laws really are DonP Apr 2016 #14

There are whole classes of guns that are legal in Europe but a felony in California. benEzra Apr 2016 #15

Which goes to prove... it doesn't have to make sense to be a law. discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2016 #16
