I like Sig, but the blue really reminds me of the training guns we used for Simulation.

You mean such this thing here? Yeah, agree and knowing this also, but necessary for training though.
Im not sure to pick this blue line painting for me, but its an eyecatcher.

I like the color as well, looks nice for sure...

... but that blue is DEFINITELY reminiscent of any and all training aids I've come across during weapons training and would cause a bit of insecurity amongst those of us with military/law enforcement experience

We can own centre-fire battle rifles here in the UK, but they must have been made from new as 'straight-pull' versions. Conversion of a semi-auto to straight pull isn't allowed, so that does limit options, as not many authorised manufacturers will make straight-pull, but there are straight-pull version of AK-47, L1A1, Garrand, M1 Carbine, AR's, Dragunov's, etc. here in the UK.
I've even been on one of the firing points at Bisley ranges next to a guy with one of the SSD Stg.44 repro's

While not the same as semi, its better than nothing.

Does straight pull mean manual bolt action? Yeah, not as cool but I'd take a Garand like that. Still quick load 8 rounds enbloc clips I assume.

Yes, the charging handle has to be manually pulled back to eject and cycle teh action each time, as there is no gas port or piston.

Still goes ping after last round though

Ordered this yesterday....Glock G45. Excited to get some range time with it. I'll eventually add some Ameriglo sites and a weapon light of some sort.

Got myself one of these for my 50th Bday present to myself. GF got me a Versacarry comfort deluxe IWB holster for it, so far it's been a great combo for the daily.
