Yes, some courses include live-fire training, while others are conducted using Airsoft weapons and inert training tools. Live-fire training is conducted only when appropriate, under strict safety protocols, and in designated environments. The specific training format is clearly outlined for each course.

Airsoft allows students to train realistically with movement, force-on-force scenarios, and decision-making under pressure, without the risks associated with live ammunition. It enables dynamic training that would not be possible on a traditional range.
Airsoft is used as a training tool, not a substitute for live-fire skill.

We provide training knives and inert tools for all applicable courses. Live blades or live weapons are never used during combatives or force-on-force training.
