FIREARM TRAINING RESOURCES

If you plan to carry a gun in bear country or anywhere I STRONGLY ADVISE that you purchase snap caps to practice with. They are a phenomenal tool for firearm training used by law enforcement and the military.

I STRONGLY ADVISE you select a color that is easily distinguished from live ammunition cartages.
