Until regulations change no cadet unit (Air, Army or Sea) is really authorised to use these but they are really useful and I used something very similar while training at the Army Foundation College.

I think these are a great idea and possibly will buy some for my detachment, a lot better than possibly using BB guns which you are not allowed, and are too fragile. Security issues , just go for the plain brown one, and the fact its 1.2cm thick, might make it not look real!

Just got this and I have to say it has made teaching some of our lessons that much easier and is popular with other instructors. Still waiting for DPs after years of promises and this bit of kit really helps.

As retired military I had no problem in receiving the use of most weapons Having said that these weapons were real and very dangerous in the wrong hands hence an armoury to store and be guarded. The use of a training aid is all well and good and in the right context would give a cadet the hands on experience of weapon handling The only downside is the security of these lookalike weapons, replica weapons pose as much fear to the uninitiated as a real one. The point is security these aids should be treated as if they were the real deal. Police would not hesitate to use force if someone had one of these aids and flashed it around say near their home or elsewhere for that matter. It would seem they, the aids are readily available to all and sundry. Perhaps vetting would be in keeping. These aids can easily be spray painted black.
