Hey everyone,
I’m a solo hardware developer with a patent for a Bluetooth device that mounts to your rifle to completely automate your live-fire training analytics.
Over 75 shooters have already helped shape this app's data model, but almost all of them run standard ARs or handguns. Running a bullpup requires totally different muscle memory—especially for reloading and managing the heavier trigger linkages. I am building a hardware ecosystem that passively tracks your exact reload speeds, draw-to-first-shot, and split times during wet sessions, building a dashboard to show your progression.
I want to make sure I am capturing the exact data that shooters with unique manuals of arms actually care about.
I have a quick 4-minute anonymous R&D survey. As a thank you for keeping the momentum going, I’m buying a pair of Walker's XCEL 100s out of pocket to give away to one person who helps me out.

Let me know what you consider to be the most critical metric to track when trying to get faster with a bullpup setup!

Hey guys,
I’m an independent hardware dev with a patent for a Bluetooth tracker that mounts directly to your firearm to automatically log live-fire analytics and exact round counts.
Running a lever gun fast without short-stroking the action is a completely different skill set than running a semi-auto. I want to build a frictionless ecosystem that tracks your exact micro-splits. You run your drills, and the hardware gives you objective data on how fast your physical lever-throw cycle rate actually is, and logs the exact round count on your extractor and springs.
Before I write the code for the companion app, I need to hear from guys who actively run manual actions.
I put together a 4-minute anonymous survey to get some baseline data. I’m giving away a pair of Walker's XCEL 100s out of pocket to one random person who helps out.

Let me know if you think an automated live-fire analytics tracker would actually help you tune your cycle speed on a lever gun!

A lot of us take outdoor classes or run drills at the local bays, but juggling a shot timer and a notebook is a massive distraction when you're trying to learn. I am building an ecosystem where the hardware passively captures every single metric—your exact draw-to-first-shot, your splits, and your total round count—and syncs it to a dashboard that proves your times are getting faster after every range trip.
I want this to be the ultimate digital tool for training courses and flat-range sessions. Before I code the app, I need to make sure I am capturing the exact data that local shooters care about.

Let me know what you consider to be the most frustrating part about trying to track your performance during a training class!
Hey guys,
I’m a solo hardware dev with a patent for a Bluetooth device that mounts to your gun to automatically pull live-fire drill analytics and track exact round counts.
If you are running KAC, you care about duty-grade reliability and protecting a premium investment. Tracking your live-fire practice with a clunky pocket shot timer is distracting. I want to build a hardware ecosystem that passively records your exact draw-to-first-shot, transition speeds, and reload times during wet sessions. More importantly, it acts as an automated "weapon odometer" so you know exactly how many rounds are on your proprietary bolts and gas systems.
Before I write the code for the companion app, I need to hear from guys who actively run high-end duty setups. I put together a quick 4-minute R&D survey and I’m giving away a pair of Walker's XCEL 100s out of pocket to one person who takes it.

Hey everyone,
I’m an independent hardware developer with a patent for a Bluetooth device that mounts to your gun to completely automate your live-fire training analytics.
Building defensive proficiency means running timed drills from concealment, but juggling a shot timer and a notebook at an indoor range is a massive distraction. I am building an ecosystem where the hardware passively captures every single metric—your exact draw-to-first-shot, your splits, and your total round count—and syncs it to a dashboard that proves your times are getting faster under stress.
I want this to be the ultimate digital tool for defensive wet sessions, but before I code the app, I need to make sure I am capturing the exact data that everyday carriers care about.

Hey everyone,
I’m an independent hardware developer with a patent for a Bluetooth device that mounts to your gun to completely automate your live-fire range logs.
A lot of us go to the range, poke holes in paper, and just "feel" like we got better. Or we spend half the session messing with a shot timer and a notebook. I’m building a hardware/software ecosystem that automatically captures your draw speeds, split times, and total round count during wet sessions. It maps your progression over time so you have objective data on your shooting habits.
Before I write a single line of code for the app, I need to make sure I’m actually solving real problems for people trying to improve at the range.

Let me know what metrics you struggle to track during a normal range trip!

Hey guys, new here and I know the reloading community tracks data closer than anyone else. I’m an independent hardware dev with a patent for a Bluetooth tracker that mounts to the firearm to automatically log live-fire analytics, split times, and exact round counts.
I want to build an ecosystem where you can automatically log your wet sessions and tie your exact drill performance (splits, accuracy trends) to specific ammo loads and track your exact barrel throat erosion over time without manual spreadsheets.
Before I build the software analytics dashboard, I need to know what metrics you guys actually care about. I have a 4-minute anonymous survey, and I’m buying a pair of Walker's XCEL 100 Ear Pro out of pocket to give away to one person who helps out.
(Survey link is in the comments). Let me know what data points you'd want auto-logged during a range trip
Hey everyone,
I’m an independent hardware dev, and I recently secured a patent for a Bluetooth tracker that mounts to the weapon to log live-fire training sessions and automatically update exact round counts.
I’m posting here because this sub actually cares about duty-grade reliability. I want to build a hardware/software ecosystem that automatically tracks live-fire training data and serves as a "check engine light" for critical wear parts (gas rings, extractor springs, etc.) without relying on manual logbooks.
Before I build the software side, I need to ensure I’m solving real problems for guys running high-volume wet sessions, not just building another useless app.
I’ve got a 4-minute anonymous survey to gather some baseline data. As a thank you for your time, I’m buying a pair of Walker's XCEL 100s out of pocket to give away to one person who helps out.

Let me know what your biggest friction point is when tracking your training data or weapon maintenance schedules. Appreciate the honesty
Hey everyone,
I’ll keep this straight to the point. I’m an independent hardware developer, and I recently secured a patent for a Bluetooth device that links directly to your handgun to pull live-fire data and automatically update your round counts.
A lot of the gun apps out there are bloated and built for guys who just want to post pictures of their safe queens. What I am trying to build is a frictionless "weapon odometer" for guys who actually shoot and carry.
I’m tired of guessing when it's time to swap the recoil spring on my carry gun, or trying to remember when I last changed my optic battery, or manually logging my range trips in a clunky spreadsheet. I want to build an automated "check engine light" for wear parts so you know your gun will run when you need it to.
Before I start writing the software ecosystem to pair with the hardware, I need to make sure I’m actually solving real friction points for everyday handgun owners. I refuse to be a guy who builds an app with features nobody asked for.
I put together a quick, 4-minute anonymous survey to get some baseline data on how you guys currently track your gear, ammo, and maintenance.
As a thank you for your time, I am buying a pair of Walker's XCEL 100 Electronic Ear Pro out of pocket to give away to one random person who helps me out with the data.

If you have a minute, I’d really appreciate the help. If you think this hardware idea is totally unnecessary, or if there is a specific feature you've always wished you could auto-track, drop it in the comments below.
