For those who use an AR as the go to gun inside the home, what do you use for hearing protection? It seems like it would be cumbersome to grab your gun and ear muffs in a tense situation.

If you are thinking about hearing protection as your door is busted in....you will be a lot more clear headed than I.

If you think someone is in the process of trying to get in by way of a stealthier fashion than....no I still am not thinking about hearing protection.  Just life protection.  Mine and my family.

My point is to avoid blowing out your ear drums.

Yeah....I get it.  I however will have a few more important things on my mind.  Rather be deaf than dead.  But that's just me.
Why not stop and give the cops a call while you are at it.

Smoke or get smoked.

Are you serious? but I will play...

1: Sleep with earpro, and make sure all family members wear them at night
2: Don't forget the eyepro. you don't want to lose your eye sight.
3. Or just tell the bad guys to wait until you wear your proper PPEs.

I guess you could just leave a set of muffs hanging on the rifle wherever you have it stored.

I've got way bigger problems than my hearing if I have to fire my rifle in my own house... But once My suppressor is out of jail I'll probably just leave it on my 300 blk sbr permanently...

I use nothing.  I figure that anything I would use would interfere with my ability to hear properly and would be a hindrance.  I do have a pair of electronic Howard Leights but they only produce stereo sound so judging the direction of a noise indoors can be a bit difficult.

THIS... And some sub sonic hollow points to prevent over penetration.

Read On Combat. Anecdotally, it has been rarely reported by firers actually hearing a report during violent confrontation.

Don't bother.  Seriously.  It WOULD be cumbersome.  Just don't do it.  Now if you're already absolutely set on wearing ear pro, I'd say wearing amplifying high end electronic ear pro like Sordins that might possibly assist you with your SA.
