Opinions on Mantis Blackbeard for AR-15 dry fire training?

[ShootsNScores]

I do dry fire training in the evening when ranges are closed. I've been considering getting the basic Blackbeard so I can up my AR dry fire game. I already have a Mantix X10 Elite to pair it with .

Have any of you trained with it and have opinions or experiences to share?

Now that sure as hell sounds like a great little idea! Wife long ago bought one of the kits for handguns that she VERY quickly lost interest in due to the way you had to manually recock so many of the pistols she wanted to use it on. That little idea looks like a fantastic way to do this. Price seems VERY damn good too assuming this works well. Looking forward to hearing how they shake out.

Yeah, auto resetting the trigger is nice. For pistols, they have things like the Dryfire Mag (more models) and TTrigger. Or you can step up to the CoolFire Trainer (with a big jump up realism AND price). But this is the only AR platform option I know about.

I have one and I need to dig it out and use it some more. They work great. The first one had issues and I could outrun the trigger reset. The new one (they replaced it very quickly) runs like a champ and resets way faster than I can pull the trigger.

They are worth the money. The novelty wears off but it’s a great tool to run through the steps a couple times a month and pays off quickly with ammo costs.

Great for instruction too, as is the Mantis X.

Thanks. I ended up ordering one. I figure it'll pay for itself as long as I use it. I plan to the the whole series of Mantis X rifle courses and it's bound to make me better with the platform.

Let us know how it works. Damn thing is getting VERY tempting. Hope they start making it like this for some other rifles.
