Traditions BP6000 Starter Pistol .22 Cal/6mm Blank 7-Shot Single/Double Action

The Traditions BP6000 Starter Pistol is a dedicated blank-firing signal pistol built for track and field events, range training, dog work, and any application that requires a sharp, reliable audible report. Designed to fire 6mm crimped acorn blanks only, the BP6000 is clearly identified as a blank-only device by the red safety plug fitted into the end of the solid barrel. Manufactured in Italy and imported by Traditions, this light-duty starter pistol is purpose-built to discharge blanks and is not intended to fire live ammunition or any projectile.

The action supports both single and double trigger pulls, so the operator can choose between rapid follow-up reports for multi-event meets or more deliberate single-action launches for precision signaling. A 7-shot cylinder provides plenty of capacity for an entire meet or training session without frequent reloading, and the familiar revolver-style layout keeps the controls intuitive for first-time users and seasoned officials alike.

Whether you are a track official starting a sprint, a range officer signaling a course of fire, or a dog trainer marking a behavior, the Traditions BP6000 delivers the audible signature you need without the liabilities of a live firearm. Its solid barrel, red safety plug, and 6mm acorn blank chambering keep it strictly in the signal-only role, while the Italian-made build provides consistent cycling meet after meet.
