MantisX - Pistol/Rifle

Mantis Tech

About this app

MantisX is a revolutionary training system that helps you improve your shooting precision.

Use of the app requires a MantisX Sensor which can be bought here: http://www.mantisx.com . It attaches to any picatinny rail (or rail adapter if your firearm doesn't have a built-in rail). The internal electronics of the MantisX Sensor collect movement data before, during, and after your shot. The app analyzes the data and diagnoses your shooting mechanics, provides real-time coaching, and determines what you need to focus on to improve most quickly.

MantisX is a powerful tool that will make your training more efficient and effective.

Ratings and reviews

I've only been playing with it for half an hour. I was practicing the "draw with primary hand" drill and the app stops in the middle of the drill. The GUI needs to be modified to "continue the drill" no matter what the reason is the app choked. Instead you're forced to restart the entire drill at the beginning. Then it stops after several draws even though it isn't supposed to stop until 10 draws were done. Really frustrating to pay a lot of money for Mantis 3x, and then this happens.

I purchased the Mantis X system about a year ago and since then the support and application have only gotten better. I really enjoy the dry fire drills which is the main reason I purchased it. Additionally, the built-in shot timer saves me from having to use a separate one. If you seriously care about improvement and you have already invested the money in classes and formal training, this is an awesome way to keep getting value without needing to interact with a trainer.

I want to the range for the first time after using the MantisX system for a couple of months (after about 1100 dry fire rounds in my pistols). My shooting is drastically better. My groups are much smaller and my shots are far more consistent. Using the system definitely translates to live fire improvements. I was very, very pleased. With the scarcity of ammo and the high prices, this system has saved me a lot of money and time. I'm going to have to mount on one of my rifles and see how that goes.
