Here at NRA Headquarters, we have a little joke. It goes like this: "What's the most common word at the NRA?" "HUH?"
It's a sad fact that the sound of gunfire can and will damage our hearing. The world of suppressors and other advanced hearing protection will help those of us just starting out, but for many of us, the damage is already done. That's why your NRA has partnered with Start Hearing and SoundGear to promote hearing health, safety, and protection among NRA Members ... both to prevent future hearing loss, and to make life easier for those of us who already have it.
What does this partnership mean for you? NRA members can now access an exclusive discount on Start Hearing’s advanced hearing aids and special discounts on SoundGear’s industry-leading hearing protection to help safeguard their hearing for years to come.
On the prevention side, SoundGear’s active and passive solutions provide unmatched clarity and safety. SoundGear Phantom is a custom-molded, Bluetooth-enabled earpiece that blocks harmful noise while allowing speech and situational awareness—making it ideal for shooters, law enforcement, and job site workers. It's the best of both worlds.
For those of us who already have hearing loss, Start Hearing’s hearing aids feature advanced technology such as Bluetooth streaming, rechargeable 51-hour battery life, fall detection, GPS locator, and language translation capabilities—all designed for discreet and powerful performance.
