I have a SIRT pocket pistol, and find it useful for the reasons Keith lists. Artemis Defense Institute in Lake Forest, California also uses SIRT pistols, equipped as described by Keith, for very realistic individual and group training. Please do let us know when we can buy this system.
I have been following you for sometime now. I always enjoy your posts. I found this post enlightening. I will research the Mantis system for our ministry training.
Thank you for all you do. May God bless and keep you and yours safe.
I was serving on the Security team at my church, but made the decision to leave a couple months ago. I disagreed with the way important things were being handled and met with the pastor to discuss. We parted on peaceable terms, but I really miss my friends there and working Security with them.
I’m sorry to heard that. Read Nehemiah 5. I was reading it yesterday. I do feel that our internal conflicts distract us from protecting the Body of Christ. I hope that you can work it out. We need good people on the wall.
PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't recoil have a bearing on getting back on target? I haven't seen a system that mimics that, so is it possible that results might not reflect reality? Again, I'm willing to be wrong.
For sure, recoil affects marksmanship. However, if you ask anybody, that is a great shooter, they will tell you that dry fire training like this is a huge part of them becoming a great shooter.
I have a number of Mantis items. They are the Best!!! I tried this at a conference and said would order as becomes available. Just placed my order and as all Mantis items - it will work perfectly.
I carry an H&K VP9 because I’m left handed and that’s the pistol that fits me the best. I’ve resisted getting a Mantis or SIRT because it’s not “my pistol”. (Train like you fight). Still, I may check this out when it’s released. May see if our church will buy a few so we can train.

They’re available now if you is the link in this article. I used SIRT, but the price point is above this I believe

Got mine…love it!
Which model did you pick, G17, G19, G45? (best for big hands?)
G17 in the video
Keith, what company makes the AK you use in the videos of active shooter training? They shoot blanks.
I’ll be doing a video on it in the next month or so

That's fair. I've been looking at these systems for quite awhile now, and we'll look at this for our team. Thanks for all you do

Hi Keith. I visited the website and they list a X2, X3, and a X10. Is the one you recommend different from those? Or one of those?
Thanks for the information, Glenn
How does the Mantis laser training pistol compare to the SIRT?

I do believe that HK is coming out pretty soon
