[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 878255, member: 1132"] How about we clear up some of your misconceptions and falsehoods here: Yes, you could use hearing protection, but most hearing protection doesn't give you good indicators of where a noise is coming from like natural unsuppressed hearing does. Natural unsuppressed hearing will allow you to more quickly locate the sound of game, or an impending safety hazard. Suppressors have been proven to increase velocity, not decrease it. Suppressors have been proven to increase accuracy as well. Yes, it makes your gun dirty more quickly, but just how much does that matter for a day afield? It's not like you're burning through hundreds of rounds on the range. Just because you see no reason for it, doesn't mean that others who do are wrong. It's that kind of pseudo-logic that has the anti-gun crowd saying they see no reason for us to own a wide range of firearms. Do you really want to use the same type of arguments they do? Because I pretty much think your arguments here give more ammo to the anti-gunners than mine do. Remember Zumbo? I remember well how my father and grandfather hunted. I also remember well how they couldn't hear a damn thing you said to them. Do you really count deafness as a good tradition? If so, go for it, just don't expect anyone to consider you reasoning for deafness as legitimate. I guess you could say it goes well with plaid though. :scratch: [/QUOTE]
