At Replica Weaponry, we carry hundreds of replica weapons, but it all starts with our extensive selection of blank guns that are replicas of classic revolvers, pistols and rifles, which are made to fire blanks. These authentic full-size machined metal blank firing guns do not fire real ammunition. Each blank pistol features a realistic working slide action; some gun models even fire semi-automatically. When you receive blank-firing guns from Replica Weaponry, they will come fully assembled. They can, however, be disassembled by a qualified gunsmith. Our blank-firing guns have the heft and feel of the rare originals. Since these blank firing pistols are not actual firearms, you don't need a federal license to purchase or own one. To further maintain compliance with Federal law, the barrels of these blank firing guns are permanently plugged. Extra removable clips are available for some of our blank guns.

Uses for blank firing guns:

• Starting Races. Long a traditional race starter, starter pistols or blank firing guns signify the beginning of track and field races as well as swimming races, too. Often, a visible cloud of smoke also accompanies the sound of the blank gun going off.

• Props. Whether used on the stage or in motion pictures, realistic blank guns add a touch of authenticity to the production. Whether your are looking for props for Westerns, actions movies or war scenes, blank firing guns are the ideal prop.

• Dog Training. A dog's natural reaction to gunfire is concern and hesitancy. When training a hunting dog, however, one of the most important elements of the training is to normalize the sound of gunfire for the dog. This can be done with blank pistols for the safest training available.

• Military, Police and Homeland Security Training. They say you play how you practice. When it comes to life or death careers in security, that is certainly true. Blank firing guns not only look just like their real counterparts, but the ability to fire blank loads also replicates the sound of genuine firefight situations for a truly immersive experience.
