The Traditions BP6001 Competitive Starter Gun is a blank pistol made for folks who want real heft in their hand instead of a flimsy plastic popper. It carries the weight and balance of a conventional revolver, which makes it comfortable to hold through long training sessions and gives it the durability to handle frequent use. Rather than firing a cartridge, it uses 209 shotgun primers to produce a sharp, attention-grabbing report that works well for field trials, retriever training, starting foot races, and similar jobs.
This is a revolver-style blank gun with a swing-out cylinder that holds five 209 primers. A left-side cylinder release lets you flip it open, load your five primers, and snap it shut quickly between rounds. The action runs both single and double, so you can thumb the hammer back or just pull straight through, and a transfer bar safety sits inside the mechanism. One thing worth knowing from the field: these primers leave behind a fair amount of residue, so wiping the gun down after several loads keeps it cycling smoothly.
The barrel is solid and capped with a red plug, a clear visual cue that this is a blank-firing starter gun and not a live firearm. The 2-inch barrel and fixed sights keep things simple, since this tool is about sound rather than aiming at a target. The black polymer grips round out a package meant to take a beating session after session.
Every BP6001 ships in a hard-shell, foam-lined case, so you have a protected spot to stow the gun, your primers, and any cleaning gear between outings. That case makes it easy to toss in the truck for a trip to the field or the training grounds without worrying about knocking it around. For trainers, coaches, and sporting dog handlers who want a substantial blank gun that feels like the real thing in the hand, the Competitive is a solid pick.
It uses 209 shotgun primers, not live ammunition or blank cartridges. You load five primers into the swing-out cylinder, and each one produces a loud report when fired. There is no projectile, which is why the barrel is solid with a red plug.
No, it is a blank-firing starter pistol. The barrel is solid and plugged with a red insert so it cannot chamber or fire a projectile. It is designed purely to make noise for training and starting events.
Use the left-side cylinder release to swing the cylinder out, then seat five 209 primers into the chambers. Close the cylinder and you are ready to go. Since the primers leave residue behind, a quick wipe-down after several loads helps everything keep working smoothly.
It is popular with retriever and gun dog trainers, field trial handlers, and folks who need a starting signal for track and sporting events. The conventional heft and balance make it comfortable for repeated use, and the included hard case keeps it protected between sessions.
