+1 to guns being louder than you expect. I wear earplugs + over-ear muffs with auto noise cancelling for noise over certain decibels and I still find gunshots kinda jarring.

+1000 for learning to use them. You need to understand what you're shooting at + what might be behind and around what you're shooting at. You need to always be aware of what you're shooting at even if you aren't actively shooting.
