Jesus, he's firing with no ear protection. Doesn't that fuck up your ears?
[QUOTE=Malos;46271215]Jesus, he's firing with no ear protection. Doesn't that fuck up your ears?[/QUOTE] Unless you're in an enclosed area like a firing range you don't really need ear protection. I don't think I've ever once used ear protection when firing guns.

[QUOTE=Dukov Traboski;46271246]Unless you're in an enclosed area like a firing range you don't really need ear protection. I don't think I've ever once used ear protection when firing guns.[/QUOTE] I shoot outdoors all the time and I wear plugs just because of how jarring it is every time you shoot. Even worse if the guy next to you is shooting his .338 or something. This is why I'm irritated that you need a class III license for a suppressor, because in the big scheme of things, it is far away from truly making your gun make the silent "whoosh" sound tht it does in the movies. As far as I can tell it reduces gun sounds mostly to a level where it sounds like someone slamming a car door shut, it's not like you suddenly turn "souper st34lth" because of a suppressor. /rant But yeah, with .22 handguns especially I like to wear protection.

I don't think I've ever once used ear protection when firing guns.[/QUOTE] I'm curious as to why that is, because you'd think that it'd cause more damage considering that most guns fire louder than the limit in which permanent hearing loss is pretty much guaranteed with short-term exposure.
He's on iraqvetran8888's range.
[QUOTE=BFG9000;46271340]I shoot outdoors all the time and I wear plugs just because of how jarring it is every time you shoot.

Yet if someone else is shooting I usually have to cover my ears with my hands or something.
[QUOTE=abananapeel;46271613]He's on iraqvetran8888's range.[/QUOTE] IV8888 produces / edits his videos. Something like that.
I always like seeing bullets ricochet in slow mo. Also holy shit i knew RIP ammo was deadly as fuck but after seeing that on a ballistic torso, daaaaamn.
the only gun I'm comfortable shooting without earpro is a .22, and even then I probably should because of the sonic crack.
[QUOTE=Dukov Traboski;46271670]Honestly I can fire a can and note even be bothered by the sound. Yet if someone else is shooting I usually have to cover my ears with my hands or something.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry but you are just lucky that's all, a gunshot is 120db minimum when standing behind the breech / barrel (it's louder if you are in front or to the side), hearing damage of any degree can occur at 85db and that's the sound of just everyday traffic. If there's 85db sound levels at your ear then you are running risk of fucking yourself forever. Any and all hearing loss information will tell you exactly the same thing. Just do yourself a favor and take a nano second to put in some plugs, don't increase the odds of getting hearing damage or FAR worse tinnitus, it will fuck you like a freight train. I know cause i did it to myself and that was [I]just[/I] 90db of power tool just once without hearing protection, i did that 10 years ago and haven't heard silence ever since.
I fucking love the Kriss Vector, one of my all time fav guns.

Those little petals that break off would make superficial wounds that might not even work through thick clothing.
Suppressors are nice enough that if you hit a metal target, the sound that makes will be louder than the gun shot, but the gunshot is still loud enough to echo. It'll make it as quiet as a .22 basically
God FPS Russia does the shittiest fake Russian accent

[QUOTE=RichyZ;46271311] also he never wears ear protection in his vids so yeah his ears are prob a little fucked by now[/QUOTE] he wears ear protection in a lot of his videos
This is probably old news but what ever happened to his old manager who was found dead?
He was murdered by FPS Russia.
I haven't watched this guy in ages. His videos led me to more respectable, serious gun channels and going back to his cringe-worthy accent is more than I can take
[QUOTE=Elfy;46272964]They'd still fuck up a target and cause a lot of infection.[/QUOTE] Infection is probably the least of your concerns in a shootout
[QUOTE=H4ngman;46276459]I haven't watched this guy in ages. His videos led me to more respectable, serious gun channels and going back to his cringe-worthy accent is more than I can take[/QUOTE] Yeah, once you get to people like hickok45 you realize how retarded FPS notRussia is
[QUOTE=RichyZ;46271311]unless hes using subsonic rounds which he probs is who knows, it still breaks the sound barrier and makes a large crack if he is using the rounds, they're still loud as shit also he never wears ear protection in his vids so yeah his ears are prob a little fucked by now[/QUOTE] Just to let you know, the Kriss uses .45 ACP which are normally subsonic by default. Unless he's using hot loaded ammo, I doubt there will be any sonic booms from this weapon. [QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;46271734]I fucking love the Kriss Vector, one of my all time fav guns.[/QUOTE] I thought it was pretty good until I actually got a chance to fire a semi-auto one at a range. They had the model with the older folding stock which was way too short for me, and the corner of the cheek rest was jutting into my face :v: As far as shooting performance goes, it was pretty accurate and the weapon seems to return on target very well after recoil. It was the weirdest feeling because you could clearly feel the thing kick, but the sights would always return to where you were aiming without much effort. With that being said, I do not think the gun is with it's $3,000 price tag.
