An Umarex USA brand, Training 4 Engagement (T4E) has expanded its line of security training pistols to an M&P M2.0 model that replicates the form, feel and function of the popular center-fires from Smith & Wesson.

Utilizing 12-gram CO2 cartridges for power and .43-cal. less-than-lethal rubber or marking projectiles, the T4E training pistol is designed to facilitate realistic practice—including force-on-force scenarios—while remaining compatible with holsters and accessories designed for the M&P. Beyond gear compatibility, the T4E pistol is also a faithful recreation in terms of its manual of arms, and its use can be beneficial in developing gun handling skills and muscle memory.

Intended specifically for law enforcement agencies, the T4E M&P M2.0 will also appeal to armed citizens looking to enhance their “dry” training, and can be used with CO2 to simulate report and recoil, but without projectiles to prevent damage or mess. Price: $200. Contact: Umarex USA; (479) 646-4210; umarexusa.com.
