    Shooting a gun in VR is nothing like shooting a gun in real life, and if you ‘train’ in VR and then actually try to shoot a gun IRL you will realize this basically immediately.

    I am trying to imagine someone with ‘VR Training’ going to a gun range and it looks like the vids of people waving loaded guns around on range and sweeping people with a loaded mag, shooting a gun and having it fly out of their hands or into their faces because they have no idea how stances and recoil work.

      That may be exactly the point, to avoid shooting a gun in real life.

      Exactly. Do this in VR and there is no danger, just skill and fun.
