ABSTRACT:
A training firearm that provides a realistic recoil effect. The firearm, preferably a pistol, may be an actual firearm retrofitted with a self-contained “blow back” assembly. Usually, the pistol will include a laser device that emits a laser beam readable by a target system. The laser replaces live rounds, and the blow back assembly causes return of the slide to cycle in a manner similar to that caused by live ammunition in an unmodified weapon. The blow back assembly is driven by a disposable cartridge of compressed gas self-contained in the handle of the pistol. A valve integrated with the firing pin releases a burst of gas when the firing pin is impacted by the hammer. The gas pushes back the slide and recocks the hammer for the next “round.” This system provides law enforcement and military personnel a realistic tool to develop recoil management and target re-acquisition skills.
