Training Tools

Live fire practice can get expensive! These training tools help lower the cost of training and help anyone that shoots get better:

The Dry Fire Primer Book - The Dry Fire Training book was written for anyone who wants to learn how to handle their firearms more proficiently. It covers lessons for incorporating dry fire into a regular routine and explains the "hows" and "whys" of dry fire so you can get the most out of your practice time.

Shooter's Magic Eye Dots - Accuracy is everything and these "magic" dots will help shooters who normally keep one eye closed change their habits to improve shot placement. It's a simple solution, but it works - the dot is applied to shooting glasses over the offending eye to subtly keep the eye from focusing while maintaining depth perception and peripheral vision.
