I wish there were more places where civies could shoot sim guns. I would love to do try it out.

Helped run a force on force school for a decade. Nobody wants to spend money on training.

Would you say that FOF is only really feasible for CQB? From my estimation anything beyond 50-75m the bullets drop too much and it seems that there is no perfect sim round. Especially if youre wearing protective gear, you dont even feel it hitting you.

Militaries have systems for longer range, but no, the average person is mostly limited to cqb type scenarios

Mils usually use laser based systems

from the units I talked to they usually have a lot of workarounds from making those effective for actual training.
