question, flame suit on...

Post by Grammy »

I'm looking for some pink ear muffs...

Brought my wife out shooting last night, we had a great time with a group from church.

My question, I had bought her a new set of black ear muffs (26 dbl) from wal-mart. She wants a pink set, she's a girly girl, where can I find a set that is not 3x the price of the $8 I bought her last week. I have looked online and have not had much luck.

Just trying to encourage her and stay with it. She had a good time and was remarkably accurate with 9mm.

PS I didn't want post in the women's forum, not sure we are allowed, so I'm here in the equipment forum.

Tell her that OSHA doesn't allow pink ear muffs because pink absorbs gun shot noises. :mrgreen:

Thanks for the suggestions, I would rather not paint it never stays like new.

Thanks, I think I'll give them a shot and see if they have them in stock. Was hoping to find them online but the prices are way high.

3X $8 is still pretty cheap for good hearing protection. $159.95 wasn't too much to pay for me to preserve my hearing.

They list them online so most of the large Academy stores should have pink shooting muffs.

This will only hurt a little. What comes next, more so.

I don't know what area you are in, and I don't know prices, but Thunder Gun Range in Conroe has "pastel pink"/ "rose" if you will, and HOT pink :biggrinjester:
