PYRAMEX PM5010 FOLDING, Better than expected

Overall Rating33333

Better than expected

The PM5010 ear muffs are surprisingly good. I compared them to a pair of 29db ear muffs. They are definitely quieter but it is hard to tell how much quieter. These ear muffs press more firmly to your ears but are still quite comfortable.

The ear muffs I compared them to are: Peltor Professional Noise Canceling Earmuff #H10A

The PM5010 ear muffs are quite a bit smaller than the 29db pair and cost 1/2 as much. The nice thing about the PM5010 ear muffs is that they are lower profile and won’t get in the way when you are shooting a rifle. The larger ear muffs will press against the stock of the gun and sometimes keep you from lining up properly on the sites. The PM5010 are the perfect ear muffs for any gun enthusiast. They even take less space in your range bag.

Update (2/6/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

NNR 34 not at all realistic
I have a number of different ear muffs to protect my hearing because of constant ringing in the ears caused by past over use of stereo headphones. I would rate the PM5010 Pyramex Ear Muffs at around NNR 20 to 23 db as compared to my other ear muff brands. The only thing I can say as positive reasons to buy these are that they fold up nicely if space is an issue and they look better then the other larger styles. But then, the thinner look is the very reason they don’t block out as much noise as the others!

TIGHT FIT
The band is tight against the top of the head and the cache does not get far enough. They are probably fine if your head is not very large.
