    Default properly set up, here ya go

    lanyard a "squeeze to open" case to your belt, above the pocket in which you carry the case. The plugs can be in your ears faster than anyone can reliably speedload a revolver (from ccw). Having them inserted will double your effective range with a handgun. If you can make it to cover, you can have the plugs in your ears. Sometimes, you get a bit of warning that you are entering (or suddenly ARE in) a high risk environment. If such is your case, put in your plugs. For knowledgable punks, that MIGHT be enough to tell them that you have a gun and that they should vacate that area immediately. Doing so is not "brandishing a weapon". :-)

    Other noises can make you wish for earplugs, and they are so low cost, lw and compact as to make it stupid to not carry the earplugs if you ccw a pistol.

    Thanks for sharing......?
    So, do you yell, "Time out, gotta put in my ear plugs" first, when confronted?.....Or just duck down?

    Ear plugs/Sound barriers are always used at the range......but unless the are big and scary....I don't think ear plugs will scare anyone, or make you a better shooter.

    Yeah, I'm having a bit of trouble with that double your effective range. What will sunglasses do for me?
