Read MoreOswego, IL – The National Tactical Officer’s Association (NTOA) has formally reviewed, approved and officially recommends the MantisX. The MantisX received the highest of the three tiers of approval, scoring a coveted 4.66 out of 5 through 13 categories of detailed and rigorous testing.
“For countless law enforcement, implementing the MantisX has proven to reduce training time, reduce qualification time requirements, eliminate remedial shooter issues, and advance officer skillset more quickly than anything else,” says LE Sales Director Alpha Landingham. “The NTOA recognition is icing on the cake.”
The MantisX is a small, powerful precision sensing device that tracks the minutest of movements, collecting thousands of datapoints per second. Once rail-mounted, it analyzes shooter movements, and sends the data over Bluetooth to the MantisX app for smartphones and tablets.
“With hundreds of local, state, and federal agencies already using MantisX daily, we’re just beginning,” says Landingham. “It’s tremendously gratifying to see tens of thousands of shooters rapidly improve.”
The full report is available via NTOA publications.
