Stumbled on a pack of hogs this weekend with one of my kids at 30 or so yards. I had an AR with me, managed to get one, but I prefer a shotgun with OO in the brush - the lack of a suppressor and not wanting to blow my kids ears out keeps me using an AR with a can.
My inclination is to get some of the Surefire Sonic Ears for them. We hunt/depopulate hogs in Texas so it is a bit warm in the summer for electronic ears.
Curious to know if anyone has a better solution. We're out in the fields for some extended stretches so something comfortable is key.
They boys are 8.5 but the size of your avg 12 year old for reference...
