That's the thing about this type of training. We see it in the defensive edged weapons courses where student will perform the manual dexterity and espada y daga drills with trainers but refuse to do so with their live blade.

If you're not confident enough to play with the real deal and get accustomed to the risks involved in saving your arse, you may just not commit to the move even though you've done it millions of times in practice with a training gun.

It's not for the feint of heart, but it does give one more confidence it can be done in the wild and not just a training environ
