Mantix Blackbeard X AR15 Dry Laser Training System

ByDave Timm

I enjoy dry-fire and practice but sometimes we get stuck in our ruts or don’t really know how well we are doing. Using a laser as hit confirmation has been a large improvement but now that is coming to the next level with the Mantis Blackbeard X. This new system communicates with your phone or tablet and records your movement giving you actual data on your performance. The app offers drills, keeps history and gives you information on how to improve. I really enjoyed training with this and can’t wait to start using it more and more with my dry fire training routine.
