1. A barrel for preventing discharge of live ammunition from a firearm, the barrel comprising: a body having a proximal end, an opposing distal end, and a bore extending from the proximal end to the distal end, the bore comprising: a first portion adjacent to the proximal end of the body of the barrel, the first portion is shaped and/or sized to prevent receipt of a live round of ammunition into a portion thereof, while permitting receipt of a blank round of ammunition into a portion thereof, wherein the first portion of the bore has a length and a diameter less than a length and diameter of the live round of ammunition for a firearm to which the barrel is coupleable to;a central portion adjacent to and in fluid communication with the first portion, wherein the central portion of the bore has a diameter less than the diameter of the first portion and less than the diameter of the live round of ammunition; anda second portion adjacent to the distal end of the body and in fluid communication with the first and central portions, wherein the second portion of the bore has a diameter less than the diameter of the central portion. 2. The barrel of claim 1, wherein the length and diameter of the first portion is greater than or equal to a length and diameter of the blank round of ammunition for a firearm to which the barrel is coupleable to. 3. The barrel of claim 1, wherein the first portion has a shape and/or contour corresponding to a shape and/or contour of the blank round of ammunition for a firearm to which the barrel is coupleable to. 4. The barrel of claim 1, further comprising a gas port extending from an exterior surface of the body of the barrel into the central portion of the bore and adapted to allow release and/or dissipation of excess gas released as a result of discharge of the blank round of ammunition. 5. A safety assembly for preventing discharge of live ammunition from a firearm, the assembly comprising: a firearm; anda barrel coupled to the firearm and adapted to prevent discharge of a live round of ammunition from the firearm, the barrel comprising: a body having a proximal end, an opposing distal end, and a bore extending from the proximal end to the distal end, the bore comprising: a first portion adjacent to the proximal end of the body of the barrel, the first portion is shaped and/or sized to prevent receipt of a live round of ammunition into a portion thereof, while permitting receipt of a blank round of ammunition into a portion thereof, wherein the first portion of the bore has a length and a diameter less than a length and diameter of the live round of ammunition for a firearm to which the barrel is coupleable to;a central portion adjacent to and in fluid communication with the first portion, wherein the central portion of the bore has a diameter less than the diameter of the first portion and less than the diameter of the live round of ammunition; anda second portion adjacent to the distal end of the body and in fluid communication with the first and central portions, wherein the second portion of the bore has a diameter less than the diameter of the central portion. 6. The safety assembly of claim 5, wherein the length and diameter of the first portion is greater than or equal to a length and diameter of the blank round of ammunition for a firearm to which the barrel is coupleable to. 7. The safety assembly of claim 5, wherein the first portion has a shape and/or contour corresponding to a shape and/or contour of the blank round of ammunition for a firearm to which the barrel is coupleable to. 8. The safety assembly of claim 5, further comprising a gas port extending from an exterior surface of the body of the barrel into the central portion of the bore and adapted to allow release and/or dissipation of excess gas released as a result of discharge of the blank round of ammunition. 9. The safety assembly of claim 5, wherein the firearm is selected from the group consisting of a handgun, long gun, rifle, shotgun, carbine, machine gun, submachine gun, automatic rifle, and assault rifle.
