That is awesome! Saw it in action at the NRL Ghost Hunter Match and messed with it at the SHOT show. Definitely looking forward to it. Put one on order this morning and it says 8-10 weeks backorder. Is this a preorder, are are they all already sold out?

Does it talk to practiscore

They're in stock. That was just a bug on our website which has now been fixed.

Not yet but that is one of the features we're looking at including in the future.

Are you a US Distributor for Shooter Global?

I retuned the Kestrel shot timer after I saw the features of the MDT.

I ordered one on Friday.

I just added one to cart and said it will backordered. Are they sold out, or is 8-10 week wait SOP?

 

[TACC]

Looks like a great design

Lots more coming, but yes, the first batch went lightning-quick.

Is this a rebranded SG or different?

 

[gixxer822]

Does it have a lifetime warranty like most MDT stuff. Curious how rugged it is

Lifetime of support, five years on the physical unit.

Bumping this up to see if anyone is using this yet and how it’s going? Interested in it but want some feedback on how it is, specifically the split times being integrated and showing up on video

Is there a way to do PRS style timing, with par times of 90-120 seconds with this? I just got one and haven't worked through everything, but I can't figure out how to do a par time longer than 60 seconds.

Yes, you can adjust the time by selecting it and making the adjustments to what you need.

Where is the unit made? Thanks

Hmm . . . When I try to set the time higher than 60 seconds, it resets either to 0 or 60. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

In Poland right now.

Are you adjusting on the unit or in the app? What mode are you running?

Made in Poland is fine! Thanks

In dry fire mode it will not go up higher than 60 seconds. I’ve been playing with this thing for awhile now. Very very frustrating. To run a prs stage dry firing, the unit needs to be in shoot mode. Not dry fire mode. One of the absolute worst parts about this item is dry firing with it. You set the time limit, desired shots and commence. Once you start. It may pick up the trigger pull or it may not. It may just pick up on the bolt closing. Totally pisses me off that I start a stage and mid stage it will beep that you have made ten shots. Knowing darn well it was only 5 or 6. Then having to start over cause it’s catching the bolt closing. Adjust the sensor and start over. This time it only picks up three maybe four trigger pulls. It never never runs the same. Absolutely pissed at this tool. I’ve moved it from my hip to the lanyard all the way to a shirt pocket. Call in for help to get an absolutely horrifying response. “We just released it so we really don’t know much about it”. When you release a product you should know everything about it. Forwards and backwards.
I think there is potential here. MDT needs to definitely appoint someone to this timer and nothing else until it is a known item in their sleep. Fix the bugs, get updates out the door.

I’ve experienced some of the same issues. Dry fire isn’t really the best mode for practicing dry fire stages. It’s best for short dry fire drills only. And a lot of the app and designing stages seems to be more geared towards 3 gun and USPSA style shooting. Finally I totally agree with the struggles of picking up dry fire trigger pulls. It catches the bolt very easily, and adjusting the sensitivity gives all sorts of odd results. There’s definitely some kinks that need to be ironed out in regards to PRS orientated shooting

Did MDT quit making these?

 

[acourvil]

MDT did not make these. They did have some kind of partnership with the manufacturer, but ended it after a short period.
