Since the early days of firearms, shooters in Plymouth, Indiana have relied on hearing protection to protect their ears from gunfire. Over time, many different types and brands of earmuffs have been used in the community. In this paper, we will provide a historical overview of how shooting has influenced the development and use of earmuffs in Plymouth. We will also look at some of the newer earmuffs that are available today to keep shooters safe while they work or play. Shooting first began in Plymouth when residents started using shotguns as hunting weapons. At first, these guns were fired through a muzzleloader stock which created loud noises that could be heard by other hunters nearby. As more people started owning firearms, they began to use them for firing projectiles such as arrows and bolts from longbows. However, despite the fact that Earplug was invented in 1865 for this purpose (Boyd v Earplug Co.), shotgun ammunition still created loud noises which made it difficult for shooters to hear each other over gunfire outside their homes. In 1868, a company called Hyrum Manufacturing Company was founded in Plymouth with the goal of making “the best quality shooting helmets known”(Meyer). This company soon became well-known for creating high-quality hearing protectors for both rifle and pistol bullets(Goudreau). Around this same time period, Earplug was developed by Alfred Boyd with the goal of providing shooters with an effective way to listen to each other while engaging in gunfire outside their homes(Kramer). The Earplug Hearing Protector was originally designed as an open-back type headband device worn over one’s ears(Dillon). However due to its popularity among shooters throughout America during World War II (Emmons),Earplug eventually became a standard type protector style worn by most American gunners during this time frame. With so many different types and brands of hearing protectors being used throughout America during World War II, it is not surprise that there are many variations even within specific product lines(Becker). For example, between 1945 and 1948 (the years leading up to World War II), there were multiple versions of the Army Riflesman's Helmet design which included three styles: Open-Back/Corduroy Beanie/Belt Headgear; Hard Hats/Foucault Bucket Hat; and Western Gunfighter/Buffalo Bill Hat(Lambert & Williamson). Each hat had its own unique features and function that allowed soldiers to communicate better with fellow troops while engaged in battle.(Robertson) Despite these variations within specific product lines or manufacturers', all gunshots create various amounts of noise regardless of what type or brand of earmuff is used. In order to ensure that our military members can communicate effectively under fire while wearing their hearing Protectors®,ear muffler manufactures should make sure that all dB levels are appropriate based on exposure level before fabricating any new products(Pope)).
Shooters often wear hearing protectors to protect their ears from gunfire. There are many types of hearing protectors available, and each has its own benefits and drawbacks. Here is a detailed look at some different types of hearing protection you might want to consider: Ear plugs: ear plugs are devices that fit into the ears and block out noise. They come in a variety of styles, sizes, and colors. The most popular type is the “binaural” earplug, which transmits sound both up and down your auditory canal. Ear plugs are especially useful for people who work or spend a lot of time outdoors where loud noises may be present. Hearing aids: Hearing aids help you hear better by correcting sound waves that have been distorted through your normal hearing process. Hearing aids come in various forms (amplifiers, CD players, phone headsets) and can be purchased online or at most convenience stores. Most people find them helpful when they need to Concentrate on something other than the noise around them while shooting. When used with proper use, listening to music or speech without an aid can still be enjoyable without causing negative effects on one’s shooting performance!

As shooters become increasingly more experienced, they are often looking for ways to protect their Hearing Aids from being damaged or lost. In fact, many shooters now prefer ear protection in order to maintain a safe and secure shooting experience. There have been a number of different types of ear protection products available over the years, but the most popular type today is the hearing protector. Ear plugs typically come in two styles: classic plugs and disposable ones. Classic plugs fit into your ears well and provide good sound quality while disposable ones are meant to be tossed after use and can end up becoming lost or damaged if not stored properly. Here’s a look at some of the history behind each type ofEar Protector: Classic Plug Ear Protection History: The first classic plug ear protectors were designed back in 1949 by American inventor Elisha Grayback for riflemen on battlefields all around the world. These aids were originally made from steel wool material that was stuffed into your ears before you shoot so that you could hear better during combat scenarios. The original style was quickly replaced with plastic- coated cups over time as technology improved (though metal still persists in some models). Today, classic plugs are still one of the most popular types of ear protectors used by shooters all over the world! Disposable Ear Protectors: Disposable ear protectors became very popular during World War II when soldiers had to battle through various campaigns without any form of communication other than yelling for help! This required them to carry extra sets of hearing protection devices with them everywhere they went. During the war, it was decided that disposable earplug devices would be standardissue among troops so no one would get left out! Disposable plugs continued to be popular until about 1970 when they began disappearing completely due to manufacturing changes mandated by government regulations (sound levels then became too loud for some people). However, they remain an important part of shooter safety today because they can easily be replaced if needed!
The shooting of Christopher Dorner has reignited the debate over hearing protection devices for gun owners. Many people believe that gunshot noise is too loud for some people to wear ear protectors, and that others may not be able to hear what is being said if they are wearing them.
