I went into the LGS asking for a "blue" training gun. You know, the ones that aren't really guns, just plastic molds of various models.
$49.95.
I nearly crapped my pants.
So I walked out and went to Walmart. $10.97 for an airsoft SIg lookalike. Sure it's not perfect, but it's close enough.
I bought it.
Since I'll be teaching some friends/family (currently borderline pro/anti) firearm safety, I want to start them on a mockup to teach them safety rules.
Then, since its Airsoft, I figure I can take them out back to let them take a few shots at a target and apply all the safety rules when doing so. After they show that they have things down, I'll take them to the range and let them use a .22lr pistol.
I think it's a good idea..... but seriously, what's up with $49.95 for a "blue gun"??!!
