Mantis Blackbeard X: Save Thousands on Ammo & Training at Home with Your Existing Gear

  • The Mantis Blackbeard X transforms your existing rifle into a high-performance training tool for dynamic shooting scenarios. This system replaces your bolt carrier group and magazine to provide an auto-resetting trigger and real-time analytics without the need for live ammunition. It allows you to practice rapid target transitions and movement drills safely in your own home.
  • Reset the Trigger up to 10 Times Per Second: The auto-resetting bolt carrier group allows you to dry fire without manually cycling the charging handle. This system keeps up with your fastest shooting cadence for realistic rapid-fire training.
  • Train Safely at Home Without Live Fire: This drop-in system renders your rifle inert, creating a completely safe environment for practicing drills indoors. You can conduct room clearing or home defense practice without the risk of an accidental discharge.
  • Save Thousands on Ammo Using Your Own Gear: You can fire up to 75,000 shots on a single charge without spending a dime on ammunition. This allows you to train with your actual trigger, optic, and grip setup rather than a simulation.
  • Get Real-Time Feedback on Dynamic Movement: The integrated sensor analyzes your efficiency in high-speed, multi-target engagements. It instantly tracks your transition paths, over-travel, and on-target delays to help you shave seconds off your time.
  • Compatible with AR-15, MCX, and SCAR Platforms: The BlackbeardX system is available for a wide range of rifles including the AR-15, AR-10, Sig MCX, FN SCAR, and M7 (NGSW). It installs in less than a minute by simply swapping your bolt carrier group and magazine.
