For our new review, we will have to mentally move to a country that occupied an entire continent of the same name. As you understand, we are talking about Australia, or to be more precise, about its largest city in terms of area, Brisbane. It was there in 2017 that the Series 2 Pro-Shooter Trainer simulator was born in an ordinary workshop. The developers began to actively demonstrate their laser training system at exhibitions in various countries around the world, such as Germany, New Zealand, and already in 2020 they reached a new level, declaring themselves at the USA SHOT SHOW in Las Vegas. But despite all the obvious successes, it feels like the company is still quite new on the shooting simulator market, and is just beginning its path to worldwide recognition.
Pro-Shooter training system set
Otherwise, like many other manufacturers, the developer of Pro-Shooter was inspired by the idea of ​​helping gun enthusiasts who do not have the opportunity to regularly visit a shooting range due to a fast pace of life, but do not want to lose their skills. The simulator system allows training within the walls of your own apartment or any other room at a time convenient for its owner, since improved dry fire is used instead of cartridges.

Equipment

The Series 2 Pro-Shooter Trainer uses the principle of feedback with targets, so the kit includes a laser pistol based on the Colt 1911 pistol, similar in functionality to the SIRT training pistol. Having already had extensive experience, we understand that for the correct operation of such a simulator, a laser glow is necessary at the time of the shot simulation, so you can buy a laser bullet of your caliber in the manufacturer's store, or use your own, if you already have one. The next element of the simulator is smart targets with Wi-Fi support, which record the location of the hit. Electronic targets are similar in their functionality to Laserlyte products, or to be more precise, to Quick Tyme Targets.
Pro-Shooter app
The Pro-Shooter targets have several illumination options, as well as the ability to add a sound accompaniment to the shot. The kit also includes a Pro-Shooter base station, which transmits all data to the control program installed on your smartphone. The Pro-Shooter application is the final part of the kit. It feels equally good on all known operating systems, such as Android, iOS and Windows.

Operating principle

With the help of Wi-Fi, all the components of the shooting trainer are connected into a common chain. This type of connection, in turn, allows you to place smart targets in different rooms or premises within the range of the Wi-Fi network, without using wires. This is one of the advantages of the Series 2 Pro-Shooter Trainer, allowing you to lay complex routes between targets. Data on all hits is collected by the base station and sent to the application, where you can view and evaluate the work you have done. An important point is that the base station allows you to combine up to 15 smart targets into a single chain, which makes the laser trainer an effective means of preparing for sports shooting competitions or performances according to USPSA or IPSC rules.

Comparison of functionality and capabilities

Often, but not always, we conclude our reviews by comparing the potential of the simulator under discussion with the capabilities of our products. This is due to the desire to always move forward and develop, adding new potential to our software, and most importantly, the desire to match the best manufacturers of shooting simulators from around the world. Speaking about the effectiveness of training for USPSA or IPSC competitive shooting with the Series 2 Pro-Shooter Trainer, I would also like to note that the iShooter target shooting application has proven itself in this field at the highest level. The potential of the iShooter application allows you to train with movement between different shooting directions, training the transfer of weapons and their retention, and also getting used to the visual appearance of targets, since visual copies of targets printed on paper are used during training. Pro target constructor will help you immerse yourself in a fully-fledged realistic virtual environment of a shooting range, which allows you to recreate the target environment of any past or upcoming competition. You only have to choose which shooting simulator will become part of your training process.
