Very cool!! I’m impressed

I have a set that my then four year old drug off and left in a field for two weeks. We had a couple of days of monsoon rain. I found them still in the on position, turned them to off and then back on, they functioned perfectly. Four years later I'm still using the same set two or three times a month.

Cool high quality testimony! Thanks always for all you share and teach!

@@WarriorPoetSociety I know I'm extraordinary late to this thread, but can anybody give me their honest opinion on Walker's as far as maybe durability and sound quality

@@vaguestvestige tried it once, it's a POS. mine had crazy static even when i stay on low volume, don't think i tried the aux audio plug tho, because it's so bad for its intended purpose i didn't think it was worth the time

Evil Dead is groovy.

Dude? Get with it! All the cool kids are using the disc-man.

1423 K3 and “squishy” ;)

Ok Boomer but I', 56

Stfu bitch

Curt White agreed. Never buying from dicks again

Curt White ... Yeah, the way Dick’s caves and doesn’t support the 2nd is disappointing. Here in Pittsburgh, Dick’s corporate headquarters, it’s common knowledge that the Stack family (the founders & majority shareholders in Dick’s) are die hard statists / progressives that actively supported Obama & then Hillary.

Most company's in Pittsburghs are a lost cause. I live north of the burgh, commute 28 to work with libs who are still suffering from trump derangment syndrome.

True story alert, I went into the Dicks store in Gresham Or. Two weeks ago and asked the guy there if they sold primers "I couldn't find any" he said what are those? and asked a manager..... Um no we don't. I was desperate bi-mart was closed.

yep, don't even walk in to look around anymore (dick's) - i also avoid krogers - here in texas it's all about heb, pro bass, and academy - and support my local dealers when practical

If you’re alone, just where the HL and some inner ear

Thanks Kim!! You’ve been with us for awhile now - thanks!

@@WarriorPoetSociety What does you quite mean when you say blocks noise over 82 decibels???? Like any noise higher 82 decibels it blocks ?? Or it blocks it by 82 decibels???

Just got my 500's today as per many extremely favorable reviews, yours included.

Peltor FTW... the HLs don't sit comfortably on my oddly shaped cranium

I've heard plenty of criticism of the Peltor Sport Tactical series, and I think it's applicable. I bought a pair of 300s and they arrived broken. Maybe that wasn't any fault of 3m--perhaps a disgruntled delivery driver decided to throw them around onto pavement a few times before delivery (these SHOULD be durable enough to withstand some mishandling)--but one of the volume buttons was either missing or broken and in any case was non-functional. The audio quality was terrible. The Sport Tactical 300s have a very high noise floor. What that means is essentially that the electronic "hum" was just about as loud as whatever noises were being recorded by the microphone, so even at the default volume setting I was sustaining some hearing damage from the electronic noise alone. If I wanted to hear sounds around me, I had to raise the level of the noise to an uncomfortable degree. If I want to preserve my hearing and reduce the noise, I have to lower the volume such that wearing the headset was equivalent to just wearing some cheap non-electronic earmuffs from Wal-Mart. Compounding that problem, I've also heard reports of Sport Tacticals breaking at the earcup attachment point. This is a common problem for poorly built headsets/headphones in general and why I almost always pay >$150 for any kind of headphone-like product. Unfortunately, I broke my rule of thumb this time and picked up that $80 pair of Sport Tacticals. When I got my hands on them I was immediately dissatisfied with the build quality: The polymer felt cheap and pliable in my hands, like a children's toy, and I could hear it creak as I handled the headset. I felt like I could break the damn things if I looked at them wrong and felt downright wrong putting them on my oversized melon--it's no wonder there are reports of breakages after about a year of normal, occasional usage. This lines up with my experience with "cheap" ~$50 gaming headhpones from Logitech or whatever. They last about a year, and then, due to faulty design and poor build quality, break after normal usage precisely beyond the warranty period. For gaming headsets, sure, I understand--but Tactical Sports are HEARING PROTECTION. I don't want to risk my hearing and safety because 3m wants to run a consumer-level grift; no thank you. I returned my Sport Tacticals and just bought a pair of Comtac IIIs. Overkill? Probably--but I'd rather shell out big bucks on a proven product that I will be satisfied with than settling for a sub-par budget alternative. The Howard Leights are a great option from what I've heard and are 10x more durable at a lesser cost than Peltor Tac Sports. If you want a superlatively great set of electronic ears, get some MSA Sordins or Peltor Comtac IIIs. If you just want acceptable quality and a rugged pair of headphones that fit within the average fry cook's budget, Howard Leights are a great choice and are widely used by recreational shooters and hunters. I've never seen a pair of Tac Sports IRL but I always see Howard Leights, so take that for what you will.

@@Thes4LT I just got the 500 and they are my favorites of the 5 electronic hearing muffs I own. The build quality sounds reduction and voice amplification are better then the others. Time will tell as I just received them, but so far I'm glad I got them and they will be my main pair. As far as budget sets, I like my $38 Actfire (walker Razor slim look-a-like) I like better than the Howard Leights.

Peltor Tactical are my favorite. I added some gel replacement pads and they’re light, comfortable and work well for me.

Is that good enough for you? Stops it all?
