Hello everyone, I’m here looking for a better suggestion about shooting gear and accessories. What kind of accessories do we need to wear at the time of the shooting? Such as eye, ear and other protection.

Like Henry said, what type of shooting are you talking about? Hunting, target, plinking, or competition. You always need glasses and ear protection. If at the bench you need something to stabilize your gun front and rear. You can wear larger ear protection like electronic muffs. I wear my normal eyeglasses most of the time. Sometimes I will wear tinted shooting glasses. Foam ear pads are easy to carry. I like the Peltor electronics over some of the others. With these you can clap your hands and not hear the clap. Others just muffle the sound.
Tell us more.

I never used ANY kind of ear-muff type that didn’t hit the comb of whatever I was shooting, and I seldom shoot anything that I’m willing to risk being scuffed up in any way by contact with the muffs. I’ve got a “low-profile” pair that supposedly doesn’t do that–but it does; I use it only with handguns. Otherwise, it’s ear plugs. Those, I know, would probably be inadequate for the super magnums, but I solve that problem by staying away from them!

Yes, I’m talking about hunting and competition. I don’t care about my safety before when I go for a hunt and shooting. But now I feel something wrong in my ear and ringing. I go to a doctor and he suggests me to wear an earplug and I suffer from tinnitus, which is not curable. I become so sad after listening to this, but I want to carry on my hunting and shooting for further. Just a few days ago I bought a pair of generic earplugs and a friend of mine suggested me to use electronic earplugs for this. I don’t have a problem with my eye because I always wear sunglass. But now I think I need to change my glass and wear earplugs and looking for a better recommendation and suggestion.

Recently, I visit a website on google https://www.bigearinc.com/products/best-ear-protection-for-shooting, the earplugs are precious but good to me and decide to buy an earplug.
