X10 Elite Shooting Performance System |Dry Fire Training System | Works with 9mm & Any Other Firearm | Score & Analyze Every Shot with Free App | Shooting Practice at Home

I’ve been using the Mantis X10 Elite for two weeks, and the level of detailed feedback and analysis it provides is outstanding. Right from the start, it pinpointed flaws in my technique that I had been trying to identify for a while. The system delivers instant feedback, allowing for immediate corrections, and after just a day of use, I could already see noticeable improvements in my consistency and control. Key Highlights: - Instant Performance Breakdown: The Mantis X10 detects grip stability, trigger control, and movement patterns, providing clear, actionable insights for improvement. - Muscle Memory Development: With repeated drills, I quickly ingrained better shooting habits, leading to more consistent, repeatable accuracy. - Cost vs. Value: At $250, it’s a steep price, but in just two weeks, I dry-fired 800 rounds, which would have cost me the same amount in ammunition. Essentially, it paid for itself almost immediately, while giving me better training data than live fire alone. After two weeks, my shot consistency and grip stability have improved significantly, making this a must-have tool for any shooter serious about refining their technique.

So, I have a military, law enforcement, hunting, and recreational shooting background, and let me just start by saying this product is a game changer. It’s very easy to use and very intuitive, and incredibly versatile. It works on; pistols, rifles, shotguns, and even bows. Works for dry fire training (not for archery obviously) and works with live fire. With my background I have undergone extensive training, but as anyone that has ever trained at anything knows, there’s always room for improvement. The feedback that this system gives you will help increase your accuracy and build/improve marksmanship fundamentals both at the range and at home. With the cost of ammunition this product can easily pay for itself in a day. I would highly recommend purchasing a Dry Fire Magazine that fits your firearm to accompany the Mantis system. It will make your time much more enjoyable, and will keep you from teaching yourself any bad habits (repositioning your trigger finger after every shot, racking the slide etc.) This product is not inexpensive, but it is worth every penny and after having it for over a month and using it daily I easily see its value at twice the current price. This is the best training system I’ve ever used. Mantis customer service is outstanding. So after your purchase you will have support. They even mail you free patches after completing their courses. Truly a company that stands behind their product. If you’re on the fence about it because of the price, just do it you will not be unsatisfied. If you’re on the fence about it because you don’t know if it works as advertised, it absolutely does.

I decided to go ahead and get a Mantis X10 about 3 weeks back after realizing I couldn't possibly get to the range as much as I'd need to - or afford the ammo - to become as proficient with my EDC as I'd like. I am thrilled with my decision. This device allows me to train every day - morning, night and in between. Additionally, it provides a level of granularity in feedback that I could never hope to get otherwise, even from the best of instructors. I am able to see deficiencies in my technique, and use the linked explanation of corrective action to address these issues one by one. I am using it to supplement the defensive handgun classes I'm currently taking and one week in I was shooting noticeably better. Initially it seemed a bit expensive, but I have owned it 18 days now and it has paid for itself almost 3 times over (.38 per round for 9mm range ammo x 1947 shots = $739.96). I also picked up a Laserlyte dryfire cartridge to complement the Mantis, and together they make training almost as enjoyable as range time. The variety of drills is perfect: reload drills with both in battery and out of battery options, untimed "Mantis Benchmark" precision shooting, Holster Draw Analysis, and "Hostage Rescue" which combines speed and accuracy, as well as many others - all with quantifiable feedback so you can measure your progress over time . If you're serious about your practice, or wish to be, the Mantis X10 is literally a steal for the price. Get it, you will not regret it.

I didn’t grow up around guns but I have been a CPL holder for about a year now. I’m currently in the police academy and noticed I was a bit behind the curve when it came to pistol and shotgun shooting in comparison to some of my peers who may or may not have grew up shooting guns. Literally within a day and a half of practicing dry fire with the MantisX 10 I noticed a significant improvement and went into the range today with a lot more confidence knowing I had put a couple hours of practice in and was receiving consistent feedback on every shot. I have yet to live fire with the X10 but I’m very excited to apply it to live fire in addition to dry firing a ton more than I had in the past. I think dry firing without a system like this caused me to develop some bad habits so I’m super thankful to have a system that is constantly helping me improve my skills, and it certainly showed when I hit the range at the academy today. Highly recommend this product and have also bought the laser academy because of how good this product is. P.S. you save a crap ton of money with this because you don’t have to go waste money on ammo at the range while still being confused on what you need to work on. Dry fire at home or take this to the range with you and the training it provides pays for itself.

The first thing is the feedback is really useful. This detecting movements that I can't see even in dry fire mode. That's what gets it 4 stars. However, for $269 I expect better connectors for the firearm. In all fairness it does connect seamlessly with a picatinny rail. But not so good for my Sig. There is one double sticky to stick to the bottom of a mag. Assuming I want to put a super sticky on the mag plate... I jury rigged the rifle barrel clamp to the bottom of the extended mag. The "universal" mini rail is like one inch square. Extras are $10 apiece. Luckily I have a few comparable pistols with a rail. I'll be training with those... but I really needed to sharpen my skills with the micro 9s. How about 1) universal clamp for trigger guard? 2) a clamp for bottom of grip.. easily remove able 3) extra parts for $269.. quit the nickle and dime extra pieces. The only piece in this whole kit that cost more than .25 to make is the bluetooth motion sensor. Don't get me wrong. This is going to provide valuable training... but instead of OK it could be excellent with little cost and effort. Update.... I put this on my Girsan/Beretta84 clone. It did slide right on the rail for some live fire trials. I shot 5 groups of 10 and got really good feedback. Let's see... too much pressure from support hand, trigger slapping on some of the rapid fire and too tight a squeeze leafing to tremor. It is all right there in the motion trace. I like the actionable feedback. You could do this shot by shot. Now a real stretch goal for Mantis would be to integrate the actual accuracy tracking. I was using splatter targets with a bullseye. Each shot quite visible so motion feedback with integrated target detection. I am still miffed that for $269 there is no good option for attaching to my micro pistols that have no rail... and require the most practice.

I've been a firearms enthusiast for many years, but in recent years, I have had to walk away for a bit. Having young children makes it difficult to get away for a full day to go enjoy shooting at the range. I'm a data-driven techie nerd who loves gadgets, and had actually been fantasizing about a tool like this for many years. So when I first saw the Mantis product a while back, I remember thinking it was an exciting new tool, but wasn't able to justify getting it at the time, because I didn't know when I'd actually be able to use it, being that I haven't been doing much shooting in recent years. I recently got into archery, as a way to satisfy my 'marksmanship' bug, easily, safely, and conveniently, on my own time, and my own terms, in my back yard as time allows, any time I feel like it. While discussing my new hobby with a friend, he mentioned that he had been using the Mantis X10 on both firearms and his bow, and had been impressed with the results. Since I'd been waiting for an excuse to get one, I figured what the hell, and took the plunge as well. I'm not really one to worry too much about packaging, but it often does reflect the care and pride that the company puts into the product, and in the case of the Mantis x10, the packaging is phenomenal. It's packaged like you'd expect any high-end electronics item to be packaged, and includes a very nice zippered semi-hard shell case with cut foam insert. The unit itself is surprisingly small. Measuring roughly 1-1/2"x1"x3/4" There isn't really a way to attach it to a bow included with the device. But that was easily remedied, in my case, by simply taping a section of picatinny rail to my bow sight's rail. If you're not already a gun enthusiast with parts like that laying around in your parts bin, you will probably want to pick something like that up when ordering the device. Depending on your particular bow, you may have to get creative in how and where you go about attaching the unit. I imagine that with a trad bow, the need for creative attachment solutions only goes up. I've since purchased a 3D printer; and if I were to do it over, I'd probably end up designing and printing an attachment solution. I may end up doing that eventually, but the taped on rail has been working great for now. Once you get the thing attached, setup and orientation is a breeze. It takes a few seconds to figure out which axis is which, and get them switched around, but it's easily done, and there's a little 'question mark' in the software for each section that explains it, if you simply tap the '?' icon. I would've liked the option to be able to run the rail inline with the riser of the bow, but it is required to be oriented horizontally, with 'forward, or backward' (indicating the direction the usb charging port is oriented. Again, with the device being designed specifically for firearms, it's not surprising that this option isn't designed in, but it would make mounting options a little easier for certain bows. The data gathering and graphing software in the archery section is pretty much identical to the firearm software, and it works quite well. It took me longer than it probably should have to figure out that I didn't have to manually reset for each shot, so I spent a decent amount of time doing that before I realized that I didn't have to 'stop' and 'resume' between shots. Totally my fault for making that assumption in the first place. Each time you open the software, it lets you choose a couple of quick options about the setup (compound or recurve, and left or right handed shooting), and it remembers the settings from the previous session, so if nothing has changed about your setup, you just tap 'start' and you're off to the races. When you go retrieve arrows, you can then use the software to 'score' each arrow on the target. If you're shooting at a bullseye type of target, it's great. There are some settings to choose a few different styles and sizes of targets, as well as your shooting distance. But I'd like to see the ability to import a photo of the actual target actually being shot at, so that when shooing a bag or a 3d target, you can score it accurately and track it objectively. Even just a few options for different target shapes within the software would be nice, but I think being able to import photos would be ideal. On the note of the limited options of targets, one other minor item for the wish list, for a dumb American like myself who still finds himself stuck using the imperial system, it would be nice to switch from metric. All targets sizes, and target distance are in metric. This isn't a HUGE deal, but after 36 years of thinking in inches, feet, and yards, it takes extra brain power to convert centimeters to inches. Personally, I wish the U.S. just take the plunge and get on the metric system with the rest of the world, but in the meantime, it'd be nice to be able to choose imperial measurements. I generally like to leave my bow on the concrete pad where I'm shooting from, on a 'bow jack', and just walk over with the phone in hand to score the shots and retrieve my arrows. This works great out to about 25 yards. Nearly all of my shooting is done at about 30 yards, so it disconnects right when I get close to the target. It's not that big of a deal, but the software gives an alert every time, and you have to clear it before you can score the target. When you get back to resume shooting, the device has turned itself off, so you must press the pairing button again and click 'resume' in the software in order to get it to reconnect and resume the session, and then set/leave the bow sitting on the stand while it re-calibrates. I'd like to be able to customize the time the device waits for a reconnection before turning off, so that pairing doesn't have to be redone manually each time. It would be nice if the device stayed in 'pairing mode' for whatever wait time you specify after losing connection, and then if the device reconnects within that time frame, have it resume the session automatically without any user interaction, or a need to re-calibrate the sensor. This is a small thing, but I believe that it would make the user experience much better. The less time I have to worry about making sure the thing is paired, the more time and mental energy I can focus on my shooting. My other option is to bring my bow with me, and set the cam down in the dirt while scoring the shots and pulling arrows, which isn't ideal either. I don't have a lone enough stabilizer to be able to use it as a point of contact when using the bow jack. Of course, the trade off of keeping the device in pairing mode for a longer amount of time would be a reduction in battery life, but I don't think it'd be much of an issue, considering that the battery life on this thing is absolutely phenomenal. I charged the device once the very first time I used it. I can't say for sure how many hours of use it's actually seen without the need for a charge, but it's been quite a bit of shooting. I've gotten WAY more battery life out of the thing than I ever expected, and it's still going strong. On that note, a battery life indicator in the software would be a nice added feature, but the battery life is so good that it's not particularly necessary just another 'nice to have' for the list. If you charge it up before you head to the range with it, you shouldn't have to worry about it at all. And in my case where I've just been using it at home, it won't a big deal to slap it on the charger, whenever I finally do reach the point of needing to recharge it. On the 'coaching' side of things, the firearm software has tons of drills and coaching feedback. That's fantastic for guys like me who can't get to the range much. Unfortunately, none of my holsters work with the mantis attached to the rail, so I'll have to figure out a good way to attach to the magazine baseplate before I can really put the holster drills to use. The dry-fire training is fantastic, and you can get an audible scoring of each shot, without having to look at the phone. With the archery software, it's much more bare bones. Some of this is just due to the nature of archery. You can't do dryfire drills, or holster drills with a bow, so those portions are moot. But all that aside, when it comes to the archery software, you're kind of left on your own to analyze the data and draw your own conclusions on what you did right or wrong. The 'playback' feature is very useful to identify your release and follow through, and it does give you a so-called 'stability score', but it's hard to tell what exactly it is gauging that off of. Particularly if you end up making any adjustments to your form before actually releasing the arrow. I'd love to see more development of the 'coaching' side of things, similar to what is available on the firearms software, and a more in-depth explanation of what it's taking into account as part of the 'stability score'. And it would be nice if I could get it to give an audible indication of the 'stability score' the way it does in the firearms software. And maybe there is a way to get it to do that, but I haven't found it. It's not in the same place as the firearms software, if there is. What I like about the firearms software is that it gives feedback like 'not enough trigger' or 'too much trigger', etc. Feedback like that would be incredible for things like "too much bow cant," "Too much torque," "not enough followthrough." etc. It's probably too much to expect for it to be able to identify smaller issues like face pressure. But it should be able to identify cant, torque, target panic, 'punching' the release, etc, and immediately call attention to it. It does have the ability to select each portion of the shot sequence, (setup, hold, and release), and drill down to get more detailed graphed data of what exactly was going on. Including cant and torque. But you have to go looking for it on each shot. A 'stability score' for each of those portions of the sequence would be useful, in my opinion. But you can still look at the graphs and get a pretty good idea of that on your own. Given the fact that the archery feature is a much newer, and I imagine much less-used, feature, I'm satisfied with where it's at for now, and hopeful for future improvements and innovation. In the meantime, I have definitely seen an improvement in my own shooting, with the ability to immediately confirm whether the way a shot 'feels' matches up with what is actually going on in the real world. And then the ability to go and quantify it on the target and see how everything matches up on that end as well. If it seems like I'm focusing on the negative, I'm really straining at gnats in that regard. All in all, I have found it to be an extremely useful tool, and overall easy to use. I can't wait to put it to use on some firearms at the range as well, when I have time to get back into that game. And I'm looking forward to being able to get together with friends again, once the pandemic scare is over, and get their feedback on it as well. I have a feeling that once they get the chance to try it, several more friends will be looking to pick them up a unit of their own; and I'll hopefully be able to put the 'group training' feature to use, and 'gamify' our training by adding a friendly competitive element. It's a great product that only has the potential to get even better, and I'm thoroughly thrilled to have it!

The MantisX 10X is a great shooting assistant that I could only dream about 10 years ago. It definitely helps your shooting accuracy and skill without having to go pack up and go the range. Both my son & I have a Mantis 10X and we are using them at home on a regular basis. It attaches easily comes off quickly and easily and it’s still accurate. It won’t ever take the place of real live fire, on site range shooting but it does help improve on your shooting skill with-out having to travel anywhere or use up your valuable and now damned expensive bullets. I was hesitant when I first heard about this Mantis shooting assistant, after telling my son about it he purchased his. Once I had the opportunity to see it in hand I decided to purchase one for myself (after all I could always return it if it didn’t work like advertised). I’ve had it for a few weeks now and I really do like it. It does everything as advertised and has a great number of shooting teaching tools on it. Now that I have & been using a Mantis X10, I believe the top most important thing it does is to improve a person’s safety techniques, overall handling and the future live fire usage of a firearm as well.

The accelerometer data that scores the quality of your hold is good, of course, but I was surprised at how engaging the app was, with all the training options and challenges. This is more than just a "wobble meter", it's a training plan too. The company awards you these nice morale patches for each level of achievement -- free of charge. The whole thing has been a valuable tool in my shooting training. It's not perfect: the app occasionally locks up, and some options are missing (like the ability to set the cadence tempo to something other than just 120/60/30 sps), and so on, but these are minor shortcomings. Overall, it's really good.

Réalise parfaitement mes objectifs: permettre un entraînement régulier chez moi au tir à sec avec tous les retours souhaitables, tir par tir ou par une analyse plus globale. Et sans installation préalable fastidieuse. J'en recommande l'usage à tous les tireurs puisque son utilisation dépasse largement celle que j'en fais.

Dopo un mese di utilizzo intensivo del Mantis X10 Elite, posso dire che è stato uno degli acquisti migliori per il mio allenamento al tiro. Come tiratore sportivo che frequenta il poligono 2-3 volte al mese, cercavo uno strumento che mi permettesse di allenarmi anche a casa con il dry fire. Qualità costruttiva e setup: Il dispositivo è incredibilmente compatto e ben realizzato. L'installazione sulla slitta Picatinny della mia Glock è stata immediata, e la connessione Bluetooth con l'app funziona perfettamente. La batteria dura davvero a lungo - dopo centinaia di colpi registrati sono ancora al 60%. Esempio di allenamento pratico: Ieri sera ho fatto una sessione di 45 minuti a casa. Ho iniziato con 20 colpi di dry fire per "primo colpo" - il sistema mi ha dato un punteggio medio di 87/100, identificando una leggera tendenza a tirare verso sinistra dovuta alla pressione del grilletto. Poi ho fatto 30 estrazioni dalla fondina con analisi completa: tempo medio 1.8 secondi con punteggio stabilità 82/100. L'app mi ha suggerito esercizi specifici per migliorare la fluidità dell'estrazione. Miglioramenti tangibili: In un mese i miei risultati al poligono sono migliorati visibilmente. Il raggruppamento a 15 metri è passato da circa 12 cm a 7 cm, e la mia consistenza nel primo colpo è aumentata del 40%. L'analisi del rinculo e del controllo del grilletto mi ha fatto capire errori che facevo da anni senza accorgermene. Funzionalità eccezionali: L'analisi dell'estrazione dalla fondina è fantastica - ti mostra esattamente dove perdi tempo e stabilità. Le 14 modalità di allenamento offrono varietà infinita, e i grafici storici ti permettono di monitorare i progressi nel tempo. Rapporto qualità-prezzo: Considerando che una lezione con un istruttore qualificato costa 50-80€ l'ora, il Mantis X10 Elite si ripaga da solo in pochissimo tempo. Inoltre puoi allenarti quando vuoi, anche solo 10 minuti prima di andare a dormire. L'unico piccolo limite è che con alcuni calibri più piccoli (22LR) a volte serve calibrare la sensibilità, ma il supporto clienti è ottimo e ti aiuta a risolvere subito. Consigliatissimo a chiunque voglia prendere sul serio il proprio allenamento al tiro!
