If you shoot .38 special out of a revolver inside your house without adequate hearing protection, you won't be hearing shit for a long time. Tinnitus is also extremely likely. I've shot long guns outside without hearing protection as a youngster, and even that can fuck you up a bit. Anyone will be permanently affected, though the extent of hearing damage might vary between individuals.
I've fired 9mm and 5.56x45 indoors without earpro. The 9mm makes your ears ring but isn't all that bad unless you are in a tight hallway. The 5.56 nato is bad news indoors without a suppressor, especially out of an SBR. I'm sure they both cause hearing damage, but w/e.
You are one dumb motherfucker and you should feel bad for ruining a vital bodily sense recklessly for no real reason.
Piss off snowflake.
