DRY FIRE PRACTICE TRAINING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240011741 titled 'DRY FIRE PRACTICE TRAINING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes an invention that allows for realistic muscle memory training for shooters by simulating the action of a semi-automatic weapon's trigger, firing pin, and reset.

  • The invention enables the firing pin of a semi-automatic weapon to be reset automatically after each shot, allowing for repeated trigger activation without manually racking the slide.
  • The shooter's hands remain in the firing position, with only the trigger finger and trigger being employed.
  • The invention provides a realistic simulation of the feel and sound of the release of the firing pin and the resetting of the trigger.
  • It can be used in conjunction with other electronic training devices such as lasers, video simulators, and virtual reality.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Firearms training: The invention can be used to enhance firearms training by providing a realistic simulation of the trigger action, allowing shooters to practice muscle memory and improve their shooting skills.
  • Law enforcement and military training: The invention can be utilized in training programs for law enforcement officers and military personnel to improve their shooting accuracy and response time.
  • Virtual reality shooting simulations: By integrating the invention with virtual reality systems, users can experience a more immersive and realistic shooting simulation.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Manual slide racking: The invention eliminates the need for shooters to manually rack the slide after each shot during dry fire practice, saving time and effort.
  • Lack of realistic simulation: The invention provides a more realistic simulation of the trigger action, firing pin release, and trigger reset, allowing shooters to train in a more accurate and effective manner.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved muscle memory training: The invention allows shooters to develop and reinforce muscle memory for trigger control, leading to improved shooting accuracy and consistency.
  • Cost-effective training: By eliminating the need for live ammunition, the invention provides a cost-effective alternative for shooters to practice their shooting skills.
  • Enhanced safety: The use of the invention in dry fire practice reduces the risk of accidental discharges and provides a safer training environment.


Original Abstract Submitted

when a semi-automatic weapon is live fired, it's firing pin is reset, and it is ready to be fired again. the shooter's hands remain in the firing position, and just the trigger finger and trigger are employed. with dry fire practice, the shooter must manually rack the slide to reset the firing pin, allowing the trigger to return to its unfired position each time a shot is simulated. this invention provides, realistic muscle memory training by duplicating the action of the trigger in normal live fire, the feel and the sound of the release of the firing pin, and the resetting of the trigger for additional trigger activation. the invention further provides components that allow use with other electronic training devices such as lasers, video simulators, and virtual reality.
