Just get it. If you're on the fence, this is your sign to come on over! You won't regret it.So far, I've improved my trigger discipline, reset speed, target acquisition, and I've been clearing my house setting up USPSA targets around.Among all the good exercises to do, honestly, I've loved that last one I mentioned most. I'll have wife (or my buddy when we're at work - he's better at it than her) set the targets in random spots, then I'll go through, acquire and put shots on target. Let ISIS come up in here... I'm basically John Wick now.

AMAZING and accessible practice tool. If you want to get better at any level, this will give you noticeable results FAST. Now I can shoot every day and not spend hundreds of dollars (range time is still advisable to implement the the practice meaningfully). If you want practice, and can afford this, no question, get it. For me $400a month is maintaining skills, maybe once a week at the range. But now I can grow skills and it saves me tones of money

Saving tons of money and having fun

A true Game changer for training. If you have many many years of trigger training from whatever department or agency you were with, then you may not need all the telemetry of the Blackbeard X, but you will want the laser and the trigger reset of the 1st Gen Blackbeard. For the rest of us that want to getting started or just wanting to be better with our time to target and trigger pull than the X is where it's at!. I use the app at home setting up my own training scenarios and the telemetry is very nice. But, 1 once a month I get to use it in CQB training and all we need is to see the laser and feel the trigger reset. Very versatile. I bought the red and my buddy bought the green. He likes the green as its a different color than his optic and green shows up better outside where he like to train.

First one sent was broken, RMA'd it and got a new one but the issue is that its just slow at only 10 trigger pulls a second, as well as the poor build quality on the laser housing itself, the laser easily gets knocked around and loses zero. Don't get me wrong its an invaluable dryfire tool that HAS made me better, but the execution just seems poor compared to how excellent of an idea it was.

It works perfectlyGreat for sighting in a scope.The ammo I’ve already saved ithas paid for itselfVery pleased

The purpose of this Product is a 10/10. It’s an incredibly useful tool and has a purpose.That said I returned for several reasons as it’s disgustingly overpriced like most gun related things. I am sick of how overpriced things are these days and 50% of the blame is on Consumers for paying it. I fully understand needing to make a profit, but it should be illegal to up charge more than double of the cost. This thing is likely up charged anywhere from 175% to 475%. Need more competition and regulation.Pros:- Easy installation- Easy to adjust- PurposeCons:- PRICE- Only useable in low light- Requires a poorly designed App only for Apple and Android that requires A MONTHLY Subscription!- Charging: Uses a Micro-USB in 2024 instead of a Type-C and takes like 10+ hours to fully charge.How to Improve- For the insane currently asked Price it would be nice if the part that goes where the BCG goes had some kind of system inside that mimicked kickback.- Might be cool to add something that makes gunshot noises when trigger is pulled.- Laser needs to be way brighter so it can be used any time of the daySOFTWARE- Software should be included with every purchase by including a subscription key tied to the serial number.- Needs a complete overhaul along with a Windows Application that can use external webcams because trying to use a phone camera to capture a target is near impossible as a deep breathe messes it up.I have an iPhone 16 Pro and even used a Tripod and it was miserable

Not compatible with 300 BLK Rattler LT. App is limited in some ways, seems like I need to buy some ancillary supplies? The trigger reset, laser accuracy, and functionality of the system is awesome. (Using on a different gun I had I wasn't plan on using it with)
