Shot Indicating Resetting Trigger (SIRT) Training Pistol: The difference between theory and practice

The single most important factor in precision shooting is consistency. The best way to develop consistency is repetition. If you don’t own an indoor range or live in the desert, how are you going to get your repetition? How can you shoot every day?

The answer is the Next Level Training Shot Indicating Resetting Trigger (SIRT) Training Pistol.

I have been training with mine for a year now. I have fired it tens of thousands of times. It has helped my presentation from the holster, pointing, magazine changes and multiple target engagement. I have used it teaching and it is a great tool. I can demonstrate and point in any direction without violating safety rules. The students can see my hits without live fire.

In teaching weapons retention and defensive tactics, it can show close shooting without projectiles.SIRT Pistols are replica guns that emit a laser when the auto resetting trigger is touched and when it breaks. They look and feel like a full size Glock. Unlike a real Glock, you don’t have work the slide to cock the striker before each dry fire shot.

The 110 models emulate the key functional features of a Glock 17/22. The 107 Models emulate the functional features of the Smith&Wesson M&P. Coming soon; a pocket pistol sized SIRT.

If you watched Top Shot season 3, you know Mike Hughes. Before he was a TV star, he was an engineer who founded Next Level Training. NLT introduced its stand alone dry fire training pistol – the SIRT^TM (Shot Indicating Resetting Trigger), at Shot Show 2011. We are just beginning to see the effects on the way 21^st century shooters train with its new dry fire training products.

Ninety-nine percent of the problems I see with shooters (and my shooting) are trigger manipulation issues. We can sum up the entirety of shooting knowledge with this: If you put the sights on the target and manipulate the trigger without moving the sights, the immutable laws of physics require the bullet to hit the target. This is simple, but it is not easy.

Dry fire training is no substitute for live fire training, but with the Shot Indicating Resetting Trigger (SIRT) Training Pistol and the exclusive laser feedback mechanism you can get a lot more out of your dry fire. The first shot brakes before noise or recoil affect the shooter. This critical first trigger manipulation and reset are the perfectly simulated by SIRT. SIRT Dry Fire Training Pistol lets you get thousands of repetitions with feedback that no other system provides.

The guys at NLT are shooters. They know how important good practice is and how hard it is to get. There are to many stories of TVs and mirrors shot during dry practice with “empty” guns. SIRT is perfectly safe but incredibly realistic. When you touch the trigger, a laser shows you and/or you instructor where the muzzle is oriented. As the trigger breaks, you see where the round would hit. You can select both lasers or just the hit laser. The SIRT trigger is adjustable to mirror the trigger on your handgun.

SIRT is designed for real training. There are models made of steel for defensive tactics training and models made of plastic for economy. There are red lasers, visible indoors and military specification green lasers you can see out doors. NLT says, “If you break it, we’ll fix it.”

The SIRT Dry Fire Training Pistol looks and feels like the real thing by matching the size, weight, and center of gravity of your pistol. The SIRT also offers extra weighted inert training magazines which fit your real Glock too.

Unlike a live fire or Air Soft, the SIRT Dry Fire Training Pistol provides instantaneous feedback from anything which will reflect a laser. You can train in your living room and shoot any target with laser feedback. No ammo or safety gear required. It is easy and addictive. The SIRT doesn’t just permit additional training, it encourages it.
