Canadian living in the USA. Point made, but this is a cool practice if you just approach it as not having an empty hand. The second Doshu wrote about Tanto Nage, or Tanto on Tanto as part of Aikido practice. When I worked corrections, I had a radio and keys. I work in hospitals, and I have medications or equipment. Have fun, and make it about more than guns. The practice can apply anywhere if you don't just make it "pull the trigger." In Budo, O Sensei refers to the demonstrated Tanto dori as also techniques against pistols, and jo Dori as against rifles - so maybe on Japanese source on the subject?
