>>2544992>>2544994holy fucking peak larp and top kek.
the anon making this post doesn't even know how to signal distress with a firearm.
three shots a second apart moron.
imagine taking any sort of advice from this total moron 16 year old.
one and two shots is easily mistaken for someone hunting or just firing off a gun. three shots at equal intervals is universally recognized as a distress call in most parts of the world. which is important to know if you /out/ abroad.
also the storm whistle is louder than a lot of handguns and some rifles. in terms of the distance it is audible through trees or over water.
>>2542805they make storm whistles out of metal? or is that just plastic chrome?
>>2545368i've /out/ed a few places that require you by law to bring a flare gun because of the presence of polar bears. not uncommon at all in some regions.
>>2544704yeah fox 40's suck dick. good backups and hand-outs for friends you take on hikes though. the full size storm whistle and the acme thunderer are the gold standard. storm whistle works better if it gets wet, weighs less, is a bit louder but a bit less distinct sounding. the thunderer is the whistle they use for basically all professional sporting events. but it has a pea so it won't work if it gets wet, and its metal so its useless in the cold. both are good pieces of kit.
>>2545433you can damage your ears. wear ear plugs when testing. not the foam kind, get the christmas tree style made for musicians. bad tinnitus is living hell.
t. did drumline in college
>>2544748those aren't audible very far, i hope you know. that's why anon's correctly calling it anemic.
>>2549649have you ever tested what distance it is audible through heavy forest with a buddy? genuinely curious. they're loud enough on paper but i'm curious how well that high pitch travels though dense foliage.
i don't think this is dumb, but i would test it first.
