    Default Systems that teach the gun?

    How many systems or martial arts out there actually teach firearms?

    Three schools of gunnery still exist in Japan. One of them is a line of Morishige ryu under Shimazu Kenji sensei. I'll try and find out the other two.

    The three traditions in Japan are Seki ryu, Morishige ryu and Yo ryu.

    Since the question was posted under "Personal Protection and Self Defense," the original poster might be interested in some of the more modern schools. I would consider many of the police and military training systems to fall under the heading of martial arts-- after all, that's what "martial arts" originally meant. Thus the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program, the army combatives systems, etc., would all qualify.

    I suspect that a search of "combative shooting" on google would turn up several other systems that teach modern firearms combatives.

    My opinion is, in all likelihood, worth exactly what you are paying for it.

    Yeah, I'm thinking he means modern as well. Still, some clarification might be in order: what type of firearms training specifically?

    Some FMA systems have a gun curriculum, Sayoc kali springs to mind
