100%. Firearms handling and shooting should be part of any serious martial arts repetoire.
Seriously even if you would never use a gun even to save yourself you should have enough familiarity with them to know how to safely remove the magazine and clear the chamber of any firearm you encounter.
Up to your risk tolerance. With the discovery of CTE we know that repeated minor head trauma still causes long-term problems. IMO it's too easy to overdo it especially once the blood gets pumping. I've gone to more BJJ classes than I can count thinking "ah I have a few injuries, I'll just roll light" and then it turns into repeated deathmatches.
Sure but if you spar you're gonna get head trauma, and practicing techniques without sparring against a resisting opponent is not worth it IMO.
Always lean the way of the gun
