This episode is also brought to you by MantisX
I’ve been a long time Mantis user from their original MantisX to the Mantis X10 and now excited about their most recent product Mantis Blackbeard X.
The Mantis BlackBeard X combines the MantisX10 and the Mantis Blackbeard into one platform for the AR15. It unleashes a completely new capability with in-depth dynamic shooting analysis. Including motion-based analysis and multi-target engagement. Something no one has done before.
Mantis BlackbeardX connects to your smartphone via bluetooth and you can easily download the MantisX application that gives you all the drills and history from previous sessions.
MantisX changed the way I train and I think you’ll find the Mantis BlackbeardX it a great training aid for yourself and your students.
Checkout MantisX.com for more information on the Mantis products including the new Mantis BlackbeardX systems.
