Real or Fake

What type of "firearm" do you train with for disarms?

Some Krav groups train with a disabled real firearm.

Others train with the fake "Red Man" or other rubber look alike.

Which do you use, and why?

I have trained with diasbled guns and BB guns but greatly prefer the safety of RED or BLUE guns. I hate the canary yellow guns because they are too soft and are crappy after a year. The one advantage in the yellow gun is that you can cut the trigger guard and leave finger in trigger for more realistic disarms.

Yea...you only have to leave your finger in the trigger guard one time to learn that unhappy lesson...

We train with the finger outside the trigger guard, and we use the blue rubber pistols and shotgun.
