Be careful when shooting !

A friend and I were shooting some of his guns when I nearly lost my hearing. At first we started shooting shotguns. Then we started a to shoot one of his assault rifles. He shot two rounds out of it first then he handed it to me, I shot one bullet and I just seen the muzzle flas. I didn't hear the shot or anything. I then turned aroung and said " can you hear anything?" he then said something and all that happened was I seen his lips move. I thought to myself "Oh god I'm deaf!" I went to the doctor the next day and he told me my hearing would eventually come back. It has been 6 months since then and my left ear is still sort of messed up. So the moral of the story is if you are gonna shoot please wear ear protection.
