If you are hearing gun sounds for the first time and are not sure where they are coming from you should call for help. Guns really do make a lot of different sounds depending on the size, strength and distance they are from you. Guns used for hunting such as a rifle or shotgun can be so loud they make your ears hurt. If you hear these guns fire off in the distance it may just sound like a
. distinct pop. Handguns can be fitted for silencers which make the sound more muffled and less identifiable. If you would like more information on different gun sounds try www.soundbible.com.
