Mantis X

[molov]

Hey Y'all,

I've had the Mantis X dry fire training system for a little over a month and it has been a pretty interesting device. Works for both dry and live fire and it gives pointers on your trigger pulls, grip, etc. I got the extra version that works for ARs, Shotguns, and Bow's (no clue how it works for bows yet). I've been enjoying their product so much that I have ordered the Laser Training Academy. It is my ultimate dream to own land and have my own backyard shooting range so I can practice daily. Until then, this has been a great way for me to keep my trigger finger fresh, work on draws, and improve my overall pistol shooting while in the burbs.

Highly recommend. I'll let y'all know how the laser academy goes as well.

I've been looking at the Mantis Academy set. I wonder how well it works with the SIRT pistol? I would like to be able to practice my draw and "firing" multiple strings without racking the slide for each shot. Does anyone have that setup for dry firing? I wanted to get some input before dropping the money on both as it is kinda pricey. Thanks.

Might want to look at I target pro also  just another option. I don’t have either so no recommendation would like to know more myself as a potential buyer

I have the Mantis and iTarget systems. I haven’t used the Mantis yet, but the iTarget has been fun. I fully expect the Mantis to be better for the price.

If you are using the SIRT pistol for the laser academy then you should be good to go. The Laser Academy just uses a bore sight laser that gets tripped by the firing pin. It has some rubber o-rings that keep it seated so you can rack it. I bought a 3rd party AR laser cart off amazon and it works just fine. The downside is all the racking for sure but the plus side is practicing with your actual carry pistol.
