Hi there, Unfortunately, I bought Strikeman first. However, That Mantis system looks like really good stuff in comparison, would that system happen to registered the scratches that the laser light makes from an aggressive or even, a canted trigger pull?

Yes. It's like you said in the video, it all comes down to the user as to which system is better. Right now, I have the Strikeman system, and it picks up every shot that I take. I guess they must have updated the Strikeman app now, since this video was from a year ago... I did look at all the drills available for the Mantis Laser Academy, but they seemed kind of unnecessary for me. So, I think I'll just stay with the Strikeman... My big question is: can the laser cartridge from the Mantis system work with the Strikeman system? The laser cartridge from Mantis is cheaper than the Strikeman's, so I just want to save money. 😅 (Even when the Strikeman laser cartridges go on sale, they're still a little more expensive than the Mantis's.) Oh, and on a side note, Mantis now has a "portable" version of the Laser Academy; so it's the same price as the regular Strikeman system.

The camera does have to be pointed at the target. Yes, you can use your own targets with Mantis Laser Academy, but you will need to manually define the hit zones within the app to accurately track your shots, as the system is primarily designed to work with their "Smart Targets" They give you a lot of targets.

It is a SIRT Pistol from Next Level Training, I highly recommend it, racking the slide gets old fast.

Would you happen to know if the strikeman will work with any paper target or is their target some special material for the phone to pick up the flash? The reason that I'm wondering is because their website also sells the laser separately... If it will work with any target, I can use my own tripod and target with the app and save 50 bucks... Just thought I'd ask someone who has used one. THanks

Strikeman only works with their own targets but you can download them from Strikeman. The app sucks big time.

I'm considering buying this. it seems great although it would be nice if there was some way you could have recoil but you can't have it all I guess. Do you know what the difference between the laser academy and the mantis x shooting performance system?
@progun45
@progun45 Жыл бұрын
Mantis Laser Academy is the way to go. The app is state of the art and it uses targets. Mantis X is only a simulation and it does not show you where you hit your target and does not use targets for training, you shoot at anything and it tries to calculate what you hit. . Laser Academy also keeps history so you can see your improvement and is the best system on the market.
