There's a few holes in that idea. First off the biggest group of buyers is not necessarily most buyers and second "training to kill" is not killing and finally most military weapons are never used to kill anyone.

That's like saying that because the Air Force are the biggest buyers of Aircraft then the main purpose of Aircraft must be used for killing or training to kill.
