This Pistol Accessory Could Be Your Next Shooting Coach
2017-12-27
[Mil.com] Shooting coaches beware: This smartphone-compatible pistol accessory is gunning for your job.

Rolera LLC, a closely held company based in Oswego, Illinois, has released the MantisX, a device designed to attach to the rail of any pistol to track a shooter's movements and sync the data to his or her mobile phone.

In a recently released YouTube video, the firm bills the device as "a unique firearm training system that diagnoses shooting issues and coaches you on where you need improvement."

"While you're practicing, the MantisX is analyzing the movements of your gun before, during and after each shot," the commercial states. "It highlights and helps you avoid errors, like pulling, heeling, anticipating recoil, breaking your wrist up or down, or tightening grip while pulling the trigger."

The wireless device, which provides real-time feedback, is designed for live fire on the range, dry fire, and airsoft, CO2 and other types of pistols, according to the video. The product doesn't require a special target and works at any distance.
