In this week’s episode we talk with John Schwend from HatPoint Target stands. The MantisX Titan is the definitive force multiplier for instructors who demand data-driven results and unshakeable fundamentals. Designed to bridge the gap between static range drills and high-stress performance, the Titan offers real-time, surgical-grade analysis of every movement—from the initial draw to the break of the shot. By capturing thousands of data points per second, it identifies the subtle neurological and mechanical hitches that even the most eagle-eyed instructor might miss. This allows you to move beyond “watch and correct” to a sophisticated, diagnostic approach that provides students with objective, visual proof of their progress, drastically shortening the learning curve. Elevate your curriculum by integrating a tool that speaks the language of modern marksmanship: precision and efficiency. The Titan’s robust suite of drills—covering everything from holster draw analysis to recoil management—enables you to run high-volume, low-cost training sessions that maintain an elite level of intensity. Whether you are refining the grip of a novice or pushing a professional to shave milliseconds off their split times, the Titan provides the empirical evidence needed to validate your coaching. It isn’t just an accessory; it’s a digital range safety officer and master coach rolled into one, ensuring your students leave the line more capable, more confident, and more consistent.

In this week’s episode we talk with Beth Alcazar from the USCCA about Adult Learning For listeners of this podcast I want to give you an advance heads up on a new product from MantisX called the Tor-X available the first week of August 2024. 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, constant power drive that ensures the laser output remains constant throughout the life of the battery, low battery indication, as well as windage and elevation bore sight 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. What is your one unknown talent?
