I'm a professional musician with some slight hearing loss. I shoot with earplugs and ear muffs combined in order to keep the hearing I have left, as it is VERY important for my career. Even while deer hunting I wear ear plugs!
I often worry about the highly unlikely situation where I might need to defend myself either in my home or car. I carry a 9mm M&P handgun, and have several shotguns and rifles around the house.
Which type of legal, non-supressed firearm poses the least threat for hearing loss?
I'm inclined to think that a shotgun would be easiest on the ears, but I could be wrong. What do you think?
Thanks in advance.
