So I'm deaf...

This video highlights a common mistake when using active noise-cancelling headphones with suppressed lever-action firearms. The amplification effect of the headphones can paradoxically make the suppressed firearm sound louder than an unsuppressed one, especially when combined with the sound of the action cycling and the bullet impact. The presenter demonstrates this phenomenon with a Henry lever-action rifle chambered in .38 Special, emphasizing that the headphones, not the suppressor, are the primary factor in the perceived loudness.

This video demonstrates the correct method for inserting foam earplugs to maximize hearing protection at a gun range.
