Anybody here ever use these? If so, your thoughts?

I’m not wanting them for all day range use, or for taking a class, or anything like that...so extreme comfort isn’t as important. I’d like them to fit, and be easy to put on.

I’m looking for something easier than earmuffs for specific situations. For example, carrying an AR in a vehicle during our current circumstances. I could have a set of these around my neck. Much more convenient than muffs, and not as likely to fall off as plugs on a cord.

The look like you could just pop them in and get decent protection without having to roll them up and pull your ear up like you need to do with foam plugs. Not as bulky/hot as real muffs.

Ok.....the best feature about them is the ability to take them in-out quickly and they are on your neck. Common to see them at job sites or factories where someone frequents an office to a hearing protection required area....just quick and easy.
 
I used them for awhile, they worked. I like the ability to take them on and off easily and they hang on your neck. I still wear them around the property when using a chainsaw or string trimmer.

I like electronic muffs better for shooting.

Hickok45 loves them.
 
They should be just right for your intended use.
I have a few pair, hand them out to guests here when we shoot. They work ok but they are uncomfortable for me for more than a few minutes at a time.
 
Ordered a pair of QB1 and a pair of QB2 to test fit. Skipped the QB3, even though they’d deploy slightly quicker. It’s a couple dB difference between each model.

I have a set sitting next to my home defense guns and one in each of the get home bags. They are there for use in a defensive situation where I have time to throw them on and still deploy the gun.
