Thoughts on it and who uses them ? I bought mine, but for the price, I figured they'd offer a better front sight ! :grumble

I replaced the sights on several of my glock pistols and used the old sets for the SIRT pistol. Works great.

I also own six student SIRT pistols for use in my classes. This is a fantastic tool and helps new students better visualize and understand the concepts being taught.

We recently acquired two SIRT pistols along with the LASR software -- partly for our own dry-fire practice, and partly for use in pistol and safety classes. A couple of weeks ago we took it up to the kenpo school we attend to test software functionality and ended up with eight or ten shooters trading off and having a great time. This gives us another option to still work some training aspects indoors during inclement weather. All in all, it seems like a great set of tools that are easy to work with. I submitted a referral program application for the software, and joined the NRA Trainer program for SIRT/NLT.

I tried the Glock version a couple years ago for dryfire training. I got rid of it when I realized I was starting to focus on the target and the laser dot, not the front sight. Also the trigger can be adjused but I could never adjust it to where it felt like a real trigger. And the dimensions were off enough from a real Glock that it wouldn't fit in the holster I was using at the time.
