Re: Shot timer
I've had a PACT Club III for about two months now and it has worked great. Haven't really beatin it up too bad, but it seems to be pretty durable.

Re: Shot timer
I have several timers. I always come back to the Pact Mark IV. For dry fire it simply crushes all the competition. Of course any timer will work if all.you want to do is time shots. If you are using it for dry fire training then it really helps to have a timer that you can change the par times quickly and easily on. Since it has a lot of buttons it looks like it would be complicated to use. Not true since you can input what you want directly rather than toggling through multiple menus.
Ex: To input a par time you,
1. Press the Par button
2. Input the time you want
3. Press the Set button
Simple.
My dream timer would be something the size of a CED 7000 (which I also have but it's a pain to use the advanced functions), with an actual calculator style keyboard like the MK IV. Until then, the MK IV is the way to go for sheer usability.
It does go through batteries quicker than it should and can't say I like the company (customer service sucks), but there it is.

Re: Shot timer
The PACT CLUB III is a great timer. It's pretty loud though (I shove a pair of foam ear protectors into it so it wouldn't disturb the old lady, neighbors, etc) and it is very durable. I loaned mine out when I left on rotation, the guy I left it to lost it, I found it on the 500yd line, and it still worked after having sat in the sun in Iraq, and getting rained on and left in the elements for 6 months...they're pretty tough, I brushed the caked sand off the battery and it ran fine.
The CED7000 is smaller, and rechargeable. It's nice and small, and I've thrown some velcro on it and just stuck it to my gear, hat, whatever an it works well and has a long life once charged. Hope this helps.
