Firearm Trainer's Podcast For American Firearm Instructors

In this week’s episode, we’ll be talking with Scott Meyer from Resolution Tactics about how the Byrna Launchers fit into your training and self defense training.

This episode is also brought to you by the Range Tech Shot Timer. A shot timer is a critical tool to measure performance and no credible firearm instructor hosts a class without one. The RangeTech timer is the BOTH the most affordable AND most feature-rich shot timer on the market. Connect it via bluetooth to a tablet on the firing line to simplify recording times and sharing them with your students. Rangetech also features Bluetooth integration with Practiscore and built in auto-scoring based on USPSA, IDPA, Multigun, or Steel Challenge scoring schemas. Learn more at Range Tech Timer Dot Com.

In this week’s episode, we’ll be talking with Mike Sodini about his keynote at the Wyoming Suicide Prevention Symposium and other WTTA accomplishments this year

The TOR-X is the sublime marriage of the military-grade Steiner laser and the power of the MantisX. The MantisX hardware is now integrated inside a Steiner laser. Pair it via Bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet, and you’re training package just got more complete. Combat-worthy lights and lasers, Mil-grade aluminum, built Steiner strong. Designed to expose, blind and target with maximum impact. Up to any challenge. Just like you.

The TOR-X features a Type III hard-anodized machined-aluminum housing and rail mount. It is dustproof, splash-proof to IP54 standards, and available with a green (520 nm) laser. The direct diode-type laser operates in extreme cold weather. Other features include left and right fire buttons for ambidextrous use, a constant-power drive that keeps laser output steady throughout the battery’s life, low-battery indication, and windage and elevation boresight adjustment screws.

The universal rail mount on the TOR-X will fit all pistols that have a Picatinny or Weaver style rail forward of the trigger guard. This design allows optimum positioning of the laser so that the fire buttons are easily accessible for a wide range of users.

I’ve been using the Tor-X for several weeks on my Glock17 and my Glock48 now and when paired with the MantisX app it’s taken my training to a new level.
