Sorry I was under the Impression that was if you wanted a traditional looking replica/ airsoft

I dont mind it being brightly coloured to show its true status

Why don't you visit a airsoft or blank firing forum and ask your question there. Why would any body on Full-bore UK know any thing about airsoft or blank firing.
The hint is in the name Full-bore UK.

What cups is that. Why would I be un happy my life is good more money than I can spend loads of full bore rifles and lots of venues to shoot them. Why would I be un happy. Except I know nothing about blank firing or airsoft toys and I guess the majority of members on Full Bore UK do either. If you want to shoot blank firers or air soft go visit an airsoft or blank firers forum.

hey,
you will have the same issue with getting a blank firer. it will need to be 2-tone.

as for dry fire drills, I have had an airsoft glock, and a real one. the triggers feel nothing alike. I'm not sure what you'd be teaching yourself. I do have a XDM compact in airsoft flavour I'd part with. shaped like a glock at least, but currently don't own a glock.

Do you know if the trigger pull is the same as the live fire models

I own a Shadow 2 and an ASG version they are similar enough to aid muscle memory and help .
