My walkers work great. Suppress my pistol noise very well. Had just finished dumping a mag on target and heard a branch snap. Looked around and watched a big (250-300lb) black bear walk out of the tree line, 35yd. away. I was amazed how loud the cracking branch was at that distance. They're not stereo but but a quick look around found the source of the crack. Would highly recommend.🙂👍
I have the Walker Excel BT. REALLY pleased. I also use them when I am on the mower. I use the Bluetooth and listen to talk radio or music. I can turn the Bluetooth volume up or down and the outside volume down so the Bluetooth volume is at a safe listening level. Love these Walkers!
The walkers do have the foam wind covers. They are internal so the weather doesn't bother them. I have the same pair you are showing and took them apart looking for them.
Good video. I have a pair of the HLs, but need a second pair. Thin is good for a good check weld when shooting a rifle. And the auto shut off sure is nice, but comfort is nice also. The rubber on my HLs also got a little tacky. It's not terrible, just a tad annoying. I always thought I must have gotten cleaner, sun screen, or bug spray on them. I never noticed a lag though. Shooting unsurpressed rifles, and at the range around others, I like to wear foam ear plugs also. Then I turn the volume up on the muffs so I can hear range commands. It makes a big difference at the end of the day.
@@PilotPatriot Thanks for the suggestion. I picked up the Texas edition set. I also bought the gel replacement pads they make for them. I never even tried the standard pads, but the gel pads are super comfortable and have a great seal with eye pro. The metal mic protectors don't seem to have an issue with wind noise, and they appear to be more durable than foam. The set overall feels pretty well made. I'm happy with the purchase.
I got my walkers razor patriot version. They are expected to be omni-directional, but it seems like they are not. All bunch of sounds are just in the middle of your head. That`s the only minus I found. They still work pretty well with gunshots, I was mostly satisfied with them while indoor range
GREAT REVIEW . . . I just bought 3 sets of the Razor Walkers . . . .they are very comfortable. Big plus when the wife like them as she doesn’t like any kind of muffs normally.
Thanks for this review. I made the mistake of using a pair of cheap earmuffs for my very first gun range and may have done permanent damage to my hearing. I will buy the walker razor. Thanks again.
It's not just your pair. There's a pretty bad delay in my Howard Leights. After trying them out for the first time, I felt like I had cotton in my ears and they were ringing really bad after shooting at an indoor range. They didn't muffle the initial bang, just the echo. I'll be returning them for the Walker's. Thanks for the review!
I don't think the amplified sound from the build in speakers can damage your ears, I would say the passive protection of max 22db just isn't enough for indoor shooting, better double up.
This was super helpful. I just got the Walker’s Razor patriot version and it’s good to know that when it does warm up enough to get to the range, I’ll have good ear pro.
The first clear explanation for me of the electronic ear protection. Thanks. A new shooter. Just ordered the Walkers. Now, what about eye protection???
AutoZone actually sells a cheap set of yellow tinted saftey glasses with a really nice impact raiting. They only cost $4 or $5. Those would probably be something you'd be interested in.
Thank you for the great review! Was exactly what I was looking for all day! Was already thinking of getting a pair of walkers but still had that little bit of doubt. But thanks to you I’m now sold!!! Thanks again! 🙌🏼
Got two sets of walkers on order. Got the package deal with the walkie-talkie. I had some Howard leight and they were counterfeit. Permanently damaged my ears. There are videos showing the diff. I ordered from midway for the walkers. You can buy gel cups for cheap as well that are well reviewed.
Just added the walkie talkies to my wife's and mine. Love that we can communicate with each other from different lanes. A lot of time I will be shooting on a 500+ lane and she will be on a 200 yd lane. Yet I will have the spotting scope and she can ask me for a placement call with out having to trapes 5 lanes over to me.
Bought a pair of the Bluetooth Walker razor based on your review from Midwy and got a smoking deal. Thanks. Was looking for a replacement of the Howard’s that are abou 6 years old. Great pair but the Bluetooth is 27 decibel protection a big plus to me.
I'm tossing 3 pair of the Howard Leight Impact Sports and 1 pair of the Howard Leight Impact Pro because all the rubber parts, like you mentioned, turned sticky. I tried the alcohol trick but its only a temporary solution. All 4 were purchased in Oct 2014. I'm undecided if I got my moneys worth or not since I have a 30+ no name non electronic set that are almost brand new. Other than that they were great. I'm trying out a pair of Peltor Sport to replace them. Their reaction time is noticeably quicker than Howard Leight but they seem to be made cheaper. I do like the fit better. I'm going to try the Walker Razors. Thanks
Not dealing with Walker’s making everything sound from the same direction. Just got my Howard Leight’s with gel cups and they work very well. I do think the Razors look cooler, but directional audio is an undeniable advantage.
Awesome video and loved your explanations regarding these Muffs! Now I'm all set to get my Son a pair. Hope he'll enjoy their performance! Have a safe summer and thanks!
Great Video! 👍 Simple, to the point. You sold me on the Walkers when you said that they are quicker at canceling the gunshot noise than the Howard Leights. Keep up the great work. Hollar if you're in the Los Angeles area. 💯
I worked at a shooting range and my gripe is it takes them several seconds to come back to hearing people talk again. So you hear broken sentences when people talk to you.
THIS is EXACTLY what I needed to see. A video on the TWO EXACT Models of interest, by an EXPERIENCED REVIEWER!😉👍🏼 YOU did an AMAZING JOB with the information format and flow, tone, pitch and speed were ON POINT! Very helpful with the Pros & Cons of both products, as well as offered features on Models not within The Video Comparison! You KILLED it, I'm getting the Walker's and I'm your Newest SUBSCRIBER!

I just picked up my walker razors today actually they came from amazon and I haven't tried them yet but I'm looking forward to them I think they'll work just fine and I'll probably will be upgrading very soon take care thanks
I just bought the Walkers in Tan i originally bought a pair of cheap ear muffs from Walmart can't wait to see if these will be better and from this video I can tell they will be XD!!!
My choice is the opposite. I've used the HLs for several years and they were getting a bit worn out like yours. After reading a few reviews of the Walkers I bought a pair. While shooting outside with any wind they were so noisy I wound up turning them off. The same thing happened while at an indoor range and due to the fan noise, I eventually turned them off again. I brought the HLs to that range for an AB comparison and wound up getting a new pair of the HLs. I offered the Walkers to one of my sons and after trying them he gave them back. Who knows, maybe I got a factory defect from Walker.
Really nice video, thank you very much. I think I’ll look into getting the Walker’s Razor headset. It looks cool, sounds cool, and it’s priced cool too! Be Safe!
I know exactly what you are saying. I swear I can hear the rifle crack for a nano second before my HL muffs deaden the sound. I thought that was normal. I just ordered a pair of the Walkers Patriot.
I’ve only used temporarily a set of Walker’s and they’ve EACH had a “fuzzy background “ noise that’s NOT noticeable with my Howard Leights. The Leights have been totally Legit for a lot of years. I’m considering a dedicated set FOR an HHV ‘ATE’ Bump though. YOUR vid with the ‘Opsmen/Earmor M32’s’ has gotten me thinking..
I own the Peltor Tactical 100's and Walkers Razors... both are thin... I think the Peltor Tactical 100's have much better sound quality for just a few dollars more... Both are good headsets tho.
Thanks! I wish they would review hearing protection when you buy your first gun. You need premium protection and two layers. Not cool to walk into an indoor shooting range and experience permanent hearing loss on your first day. And why don't they allow silencers? That's crazy. It ensures that if you ever do defend yourself in a home invasion, you will never be able to hear again.
Hello! Thanks for this review. I used them today in indoors range and they didn’t work very well. I had to turn them off in order to receive protection. Finally I decided to use conventional non-electronic muffs in my indoor practice. They are supposed to work indoors?
Indoor shooting is much louder than outdoor. Electronic muffs are designed to amplify other sound but muffle the shot. If you turn the microphones down or off as you described, they are effectively the exact same as non electric muffs. Which in an indoor range is better.....so electronic muffs are still best of both worlds.
Try some "Goo Gone' on those Walkersm, then some rubbing alcohol after...I had JBL speakers that turned 'sticky' after a few years and that cleaned them up really well. Great review thanks.
I have the Walker Razor slims that are made for women and people who have small heads. My only gripe is that the battery cover is loose. I got it from Academy and I’m debating on taking them back and getting something else. Only for the simple fact the battery cover is loose and doesn’t hold well. I only got them because it said on the packaging that it was it was for women shooters. But my boyfriend has the Howard Leight ones. They’re okay but they kinda hurt my head after a while of wearing them.
Do you think these would work okay for wearing at a Nascar race? I'd like to be able to listen to a scanner while wearing them. My main question is, does the ambient sound coming through the speakers drown out the incoming sound from say the 3.5mm jack?
Hello, I would ask you ( I don't own ear protection) for home defense wich model you would use? I like how you described the Walker's Razor but there's more models and I don't know wich one to pick Thanks !
I own the Walker's Patriot and they are uncomfortable if you move the earpads up closer to the headband it doesn't allow them to tilt open and not to sit flat against the side of your head and the pads may be thicker but they are very soft material and they tend to flatten out and they feel loose on my head they move around alot when I'm wearing them if I adjust them so they don't hit the headband they are sticking up really high above my head another issue is they hit the stock of my rifle because they stick out far along the bottom and it's squared off instead of being rounded like they should be so basically everything they should be doing they don't do well aside from the nice volume control and audio quality
i have a budget night vision monanucker.. the outer body is the same as the rubber you talked about as getting sticky over time. Q: is there a way to “correct it”?
For hunters these have to a small learning curve. With the sound being amplified it makes things sound presumably closer than what they actually are. Something that normally sounds 20 yards away can actually be 40 or so. This is just a example. Not exact figure. Point is you will have to get used to what things sound like where to complete get the best use for them

Razors have a system of inner ear plugs that integrate with outer muffs?
OPS Core AMP's do, but that is a $900 set of plugs & muffs
@Aric Stephen no, but inner ear plugs are like $0.02 you can just put on some ear plugs then put on the razors
Unlike other videos that compare different products, this guy actually tries on both products and shows how he adjusts them for his head.

@@scottlovin8112 look at the new model of walkers. It has Auto shutoff
Great review... I automatically pay better attention to any gun related review by anyone that pronounces the invisible W in "On"
After 40 years of using conventional ear pro I decided to upgrade. Glad to find this video.
Thank you for not having a 2 minute intro to tell us you're doing a video.
Very helpful and informative, I just subscribed.
For the price range both are good sets. I have both with thousands of hours of use. I would use foams as well when on any busy range.
The walkers do have the foam wind covers. They are internal so the weather doesn't bother them. I have the same pair you are showing and took them apart looking for them.
Thank you for this. I wondered if the foam padding was simply hidden beneath the wire mesh protection.

One way you can cover the aux port and prevent dirt from going in is to cut the broken earphone aux plug and just put it in there

Hello, I would ask you ( I don't own ear protection) for home defense wich model you would use? I like how you described the Walker's Razor but there's more models and I don't know wich one to pick
Thanks !
can you hear your radio on the walkers?
Answered my Qs! Getting a walker!
I own the Walker's Patriot and they are uncomfortable if you move the earpads up closer to the headband it doesn't allow them to tilt open and not to sit flat against the side of your head and the pads may be thicker but they are very soft material and they tend to flatten out and they feel loose on my head they move around alot when I'm wearing them if I adjust them so they don't hit the headband they are sticking up really high above my head another issue is they hit the stock of my rifle because they stick out far along the bottom and it's squared off instead of being rounded like they should be so basically everything they should be doing they don't do well aside from the nice volume control and audio quality
This video is so helpful. Thank you!
i have a budget night vision monanucker..
the outer body is the same as the rubber you talked about as getting sticky over time.
Q: is there a way to “correct it”?
What do you think about Howard Bolt?
Thank you 🙏🏾 soo much I’m going electronic & I’m get’g walkers vt thx
Great review!
Thank you for the review very well done
For hunters these have to a small learning curve. With the sound being amplified it makes things sound presumably closer than what they actually are. Something that normally sounds 20 yards away can actually be 40 or so. This is just a example. Not exact figure. Point is you will have to get used to what things sound like where to complete get the best use for them
Thank you for this information
