What tools can we use within a reality based training framework? Ken Murray discusses rubber guns, Airsoft guns, laser beams, marking cartridges, protective gear, and well-trained role players. He also touches on what we can and cannot do with conventional munitions. Another important component to reality based training is Theater of the Mind – imagining ourselves in bad situations and how we would respond.
