A pugil stick is a heavily-padded pole-like training weapon that has been used since the early 1940s by military personnel in training for rifle and bayonet combat. The pugil stick is similar to a quarterstaff or Japanese bo and may be marked to indicate the end that represents the bayonet and the one that is the rifle butt.
