VirTra has also worked with Haley Strategic and Action Target for applying lessons learned in the simulator to the real world. Whether it is decision-making or marksmanship, the important part of training is that it can be transferred to reality.
We appreciate and thank our partners for their contributions to our training, making it more sustainable and trustworthy.
Learning how to shoot a firearm on a live course at a stationary target is one thing. However, being able to practice hitting moving targets through varying conditions and utilizing your weapon in a stressful environment is an entire step up in any form of firearm training.
Whether you are law enforcement, military, or just someone looking to sharpen their firearm skills, you have the opportunity receive high quality simulator firearm training.

Benefits of Simulator Firearm Training
Having access to simulator training along with extensive firearm education provides several benefits.
Because this course was created to help better firearm skills, students are going to be shooting a good number of rounds to get their practice in. On a live range, concerns arise regarding the environmental impact of the debris, the time it would take to cleanup, and the cost of providing that amount of ammunition. Shooting on a simulator range mitigates all of those additional costs and cleanup!
With VirTra’s drop-in recoil kits, students can turn live weapons into simulation-ready weapons with realistic recoil. Once weapons are simulation-ready, they are able to be used on the simulator ranges and scenarios where shot placement, accuracy, and more are calculated for students to learn and better from!
