You'd reach for a pistol before anything else? How odd. Even I would rather have my Mossberg 590 or Ruger Mini-14 than any of my handguns, and I am a handgun nut.

That said, sword training is good for many reasons. Physical conditioning, useful training in footwork and mobility, outside-of-the-box thinking from taking a totally different style, and, at worst, it is better to be trained with a sword if you have one at hand than not. You never know when a long blade will be around and a gun won't.
