I wonder if this will really work. The noise and recoil will be absent.

Some things are just better done in the field. There is so much you can’t simulate in a VR environment.

Fire hoses and ghillie suits will still be involved.

“These militia, trained and disciplined in their own houses; not practised in the field, but BRINGING THEIR GUNS
WHICH THEY WERE TAUGHT TO USE WHEN CHILDREN..” p.111, p.168 are sourced from “Proceedings and Debates of the Convention of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania”, Vol. 4, by the Pennsylvania Constitutional Convention, 1837-8

Horsehockey: there is no substitute for firing live ammo from real weapons in real-life conditions.

Lazy leaders who like gimmicky solutions and want to avoid maintaining rifle ranges want this garbage - as well as bloodsucking vendors of the expensive and ultimately low-value systems.

The only experience I have here is having scored two or three point below "Expert" in BCT almost 50 years ago.That was pretty amazing because before my arrival at Fort Knox I had never even *seen* a firearm,let alone fired one.

It seems to me that unless a bullet is somehow laser guided or GPS guided (like most long rage missiles are) hitting a person at any more than a 100-150 yards is as much luck as anything else.

access to multiple weapons: the M9 service pistol, M4 carbine, and wireless weapons, including the M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle, M32A1 Multi-Shot Grenade Launcher and M72 Light Anti-Tank Weapon

Train "snipers"??

Sounds more like basic infantry.

Bullets are stupid. In the 21st Century, it seems that a guidance system would be possible and inevitable in preference to “going ballistic.”

Moore’s Law suggests a “Brilliant Pebbles” approach to infantry weaponry.

This latest iteration, modeled off the Firearms Training Simulator (FATS)...

They seem to have forgotten a word-—s/b Firearms Reality Training Simulator (FARTS)
