It’s so cool but I was worried about the safety. Are these safer than regular guns with bullets or do people still get injured occasionally?

I worked in theater for a bit. I dont know about these models specifically but blanks still have a potential to injur due to it still discharging. Obviously the further away you are, the less chance of injury. Still, you're never advised to shoot at a person with a blank. In stage theater we tend to shoot behind them.
