Strikeman and Mantis Laser training systems

[375 Ruger Fan]

Anyone using this system or something similar?

I have used the mantis with both a pistol and the AR-15. The pistol system I have is the Mantis X10 and it provides great feedback to correct/improve your shooting, the drawback is you have to manually reset the slide each shot, so to put a string of shots together is not easy. The Blackbird that is used with an AR type firearm does reset the trigger and offer similar feedback.

They have worked great and I would recommend them, just know the functionality going in.

The Mantis is a great tool to get instant feedback on what your muzzle is doing. Before, during trigger squeeze and after the shot. Recoil management.

Great dry and live fire training aid.

Worth every penny

Ads for laser dry-fire training systems like Strikeman, LaserLyte, Mantis, and others are everywhere. They're supposed to improve accuracy and trigger control while saving range trips and money on ammo. How many people use them and how often?

Mantis works great. The device attaches on the muzzle on your rail then transmits any movement before, during and after the trigger squeeze.

So it will tell you where your muzzle was when the trigger breaks. Translating to proper index, grip, etc.

I like the Mantis because it gives feedback on which way the muzzle moved during the squeeze and at the shot during live fire. And tells if grip or index is wrong.


Too much of a strike man type device can reinforce improper form.

Say you dry fire using the strike man pro. And you are more concerned about getting 10s than proper grip so you are loosely holding the gun and concentrating on squeezing the trigger,

Then you move to the range and the gun is flying out of your hand and after the second shot, you’re flinging lead all over the place.

The mantis can be used in your house and live fire
