How Loud Is A Gunshot?

[Jsimon78]

In the Nam, with no hearing devices, I was around 105, 155, 175 and 8 inch cannon. In the field, as a F.O. I was in firefights, ambushes, etc. V.A. Gave me a disability for tinnitus but not hearing loss, although they will, and do, provide me with hearing aids…go figure!

Sounds like the VA
