False. Deaf people can still get tinnitus.
Ear protection is no joke. Double up on it every time you shoot. A single unprotected shot - even from .22 - is permanent irreversible hearing loss/damage.
A single unprotected shot?
Did everyone who fought before ear protection was standardized lose the ability to properly hear?
I don't know, that seems too little but I'm not about to go out and shoot unprotected shots with a hearing test between them I guess
Yes, very much so. Sound is measured in decibels - which is on a logarithmic scale. Immediate hearing damage starts at around 120-130 dB of sound pressure. This varies slightly from person to person, but even a .22 is about 125-130 dB in volume.
Sound is wack so to just give a high level overview - Sound energy doubles every 3 dB, and sound pressure doubles every 6 dB. In other words, you don't want to fuck with it. Gunfire is LOUD.
The guy who invented the suppressor did so because he went completely deaf from shooting too much. Double up on all shooting environments.
It's just surprising; you would think that anyone who had experienced war ended up going deaf.
I guess on the plus side no Islamist terrorist fighting in their caves has any ear protection and that's one place where firing a gun would definitely suck with no protection
