"So Far, So Good"

I've only put about 50 shots through the CoolFire Trainer. So everything said here may change. Though so far it lives up to the hype.

Pros:
+ It replicates my Beretta 92FS's recoil fairly accurately.
+ I can use my own holster and the slide resets itself with every shot for about 15 shots before the CO2 runs out.
+ I can quick(ish) draw and do Mozambique Drills in my apartment shooting the included targets on my refrigerator (I can spell "Mozambique Drills" faster than I do them).
+ Although it cycles my pistol, it isn't very loud. It sounds like I'm using a large staple gun. I could probably cover the sound with some music or the TV. No complaints from the neighbors.

Cons:
- It's a little bit fiddly and somewhat intimidating to install the first time unless you have some mechanical proficiency. Zeroing the laser is weird at first.
- Aggravating the above are a lack of centralized instructions. Some of it is in an online manual, some of it is marked on the box, some on the website, and some on YouTube. This is understandable because the systems are different for each pistol type and some instructions appear to have been made up after the fact. Still annoying though, as you may think you remember how to do something and have to spend time searching for it on all those sources to verify.
- Heating the CO2 is awkward. They recommend some kind of heating plate. I heat water to 86˚ F and immerse the canister in it and let it cool to 84˚ F. I have to repeat the process between each 15 shots as the canister will cool. Apparently other people just leave them in the sun for a bit.
- Refilling CO2 canisters is kinda hard in my area. Though for many that's not a problem. If you paintball or live near a paintball shop that's an easy fix.

"New Unit Failed, Terrible Service"

New unit for Sig. Put about 40 shots through it before it failed. Called CS, said they’d send me a new gasket. Then they forgot to send it. Two weeks later they sent it by mail. Didn’t fix the problem. See where this is going? 4 calls and voicemails and as many emails with ZERO response. Now a month without the trainer and they won’t send a new one, I have to send the old one back! How many more weeks before I get a working unit? Here’s an idea. Take my cc number, send a replacement. If I don’t send the damaged one back, charge me. Especially after weeks and weeks of delay. Horribly non-responsive customer service.

Delivery times are horrible and the website is misleading

"The coolfire trainer is an excellent…"

The coolfire trainer is an excellent substitute for ammo and recoil.

"Released before they said!"

Released before they said!
Very smooth transaction.
Only glitch is that when you add anything to the cart it doubles it
Great communication when inquiring

"Lasers Do Not Fit"

It is sad to hear that none of the laser attachments CoolFire has will fit the XMacro system. That is a big part of my training.

"Thank you foe making so simple to order!"

"Website was easy to navigate"

Website was easy to navigate, reasonable price for what you get. Very helpful at making sure you get the correct parts together.

One observation, everytime I added something to the cart it was added twice. I tried both mobile and desktop and got the error. Possibly due to browser malfunction (using firefox) but could lose sales if someone didn't catch the error and backed out due to sticker shock.

"Very easy to place my order on your…"

Very easy to place my order on your website.

"When I was first introduced to your…"

When I was first introduced to your product I saw it as an introduction to shooting live ammo. It’s less expensive than live ammo and works as a transition from no ammo to live ammo. Perfect for my students who have never touched a gun.
