Allen 4106 Ultrax Shield 23 dB Flat Dark Earth

Hearing protection that stays put during extended range sessions requires both comfort and reliable noise reduction. The Allen 4106 Ultrax Shield delivers 23 dB attenuation in an over-the-head design that won't slip during shooting. Whether you're at a range in Oakland or handling an FFL transfer in Sunnyvale, proper ear defense is non-negotiable for safe shooting.

23 dB Attenuation and Headband Stability

Over-the-head designs anchor hearing protection without relying on ear canal fit alone. The Ultrax Shield's flat dark earth finish suits both indoor and outdoor shooting environments. At 23 dB noise reduction, this level of protection handles standard centerfire rifle and shotgun noise effectively. Many shooters pair hearing protection with ammunition sourcing—whether buying new factory rounds or exploring private party transfer process options for used gear, consistency matters across your entire shooting setup.

Frequently asked questions

Does the over-the-head design work for shooters wearing baseball caps?

Yes. The headband sits above most cap brims. Adjust the fit to clear your cap's structure while maintaining firm contact with your head for stability during recoil.

What does 23 dB noise reduction actually mean in practical terms?

At 23 dB, this level cuts typical centerfire rifle noise from roughly 160 dB down to approximately 137 dB—still loud, but significantly safer for extended shooting without doubling up protection.
