EXACTLY my line of thinking. No reason to deafen yourself if you don't have to.

For this very reason, I have no clue why Homeland Security went with the .357 Sig. Someone shoots one of those in an airplane and dozens of people are likely to get some pretty serious hearing damage. It's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
