Introducing our new Sporting Traditions 209 Trainer!

Heirloom-quality training (or blank) pistols are hard to find in used condition let alone brand new and since bird dogs are so deeply intertwined with what we do and our members, we've worked with a US firearms manufacturer to make one with features exclusive for RGS. Intended for training or carrying along during the season to honor good bird work with a blank when birds just didn't offer a safe shot, this training pistol is built and warrantied to last your lifetime.

An RGS-exclusive, our new training pistol (blank pistol) fires the efficient, economical, and accessible 209 shotshell primer. Made in the U.S., the Sporting Traditions 209 Trainer comes with a lifetime warranty. Featuring a 6-shot swing-out, plunger-style extractor, there is no cylinder pin to lose and no disassembly required to reload. The Sporting Traditions 209 Trainer can be fired by double or single action if training requires pinpoint gun report with an excellently timed action and a locked cylinder.

The holster is made of quality,10oz saddle skirting leather from the Wickett & Craig Tannery in central Pennsylvania that has been in business since 1867. Hand cut, carved, stamped, and stitched in the US, these holsters come unfinished (not oiled) at our request, giving you the option to wet mold your holster to your trainer for a custom fit and look (wet mold and oil-finish instructions included). Included is a leather lanyard and snap to keep your gun attached to your hip in some form at all times. The holster also comes with its own lifetime warranty.

This training package was made to last a lifetime.
