CoolFire Trainer Reviews 

In less than 100 shots, a leak developed from, first the soda maker bottle and then the cool fire barrel. I am currently researching the solutions to those problems but for the price point, I am definitely disappointed in how fast it required maintenance. I will discourage others from purchasing this product

I love the CoolFire Trainer! I bought it for my handgun and loved it so much that I bought the one for my AR-15. Customer support was responsive and knowledgeable, solving my issue quickly. When I needed a spare part, it was sent quickly.

Great addition, really is nice to be able to shoot at home with Recoil. Not perfect because of some poor engineering, but overall worth-it.

Be ready to do a lot of searching to get necessary details about installation and adjustments online—not from any useful “user instruction manual.”

I got this cool fire trainer seven months ago. My trainer has already been sent off to warranty repair once, when I got it back from warranty repair I fired two shots now it needs to go back to be repaired again. I told my buddy I shoot with all the time about the new trainer I got. 7 months later he hasn’t been able to shoot it because it is broke again. I contacted cool fire about getting a repair. I am still waiting for a response.

Great customer service! Sandy was amazing. She went to great lengths to help me.

I just received everything and I can't wait to start training.

My failure to read the instructions completely caused the striker to be damaged. I got in touch with support and within a few days I had two new strikers and four of the plastic caps for them. Using the info I received I was able to replace the bad striker and the unit now works perfectly. It is helping my daughter get over her fear of recoil.

This worked well. I wish I was able to get more than 12 shots. Also finding the c02 soda bottles is hard. Looks like online is what I will need to do. If I knew this I may have done something different.

The system is a good concept but getting about 10 shots from each refill just isn't enough to make it worth it to me. Spent too much for something I probably won't use often due to the inconvenience of having to stop my training program after 10ish shots to refill every time

I’m so happy that I got my CoolFire Trainer. It has far exceeded my expectations. I feel like I built my own range downstairs and can practice any time. I added the laser and Mantis. Now I get the technical feedback that I need to become a more proficient shooter. CoolFire support is beyond belief. I of course was questioned (interrogated) by my wife for the cost. It’s the first time that I got in trouble and successfully justified my way out.

As you can imagine, the product will take a lot of ware and tear due to the nature of what it does. The support and service you get from cool fire makes the experience so much better. The product itself is awesome for me. My goal is to replicate a some recoil so my dot moves and i can train my eyes to see my dot quicker. It helps me work on that.

The concept is really cool. Tried it on a Glock G19 platform. You put on a new barrel and RSA and with some CO2 from a soda stream bottle you can press the trigger and get some muted recoil, the striker is reset, and the target registers where the laser hit. My wife is not a gun person and enjoyed using it. Unfortunately after a little bit of use (as in hundreds of shots) the system failed. The compressed air sprayed out of somewhere in the barrel assembly causing the laser and barrel area to "freeze" from the air blasting over it. I reached out to support and after a few messages back and forth got an RMA and sent it back. I couple of months went buy and I reached out to check on the status. The received the return but then it got lost somewhere so they asked what I sent back and just sent me new replacement items. After just a few shots, the new unit started having the same sort of issue except it leaks the CO2 when I charge the unit. It seems like it make be coming from the barrel near the breach aras but sort of hard to tell. Anyhow, great concept and for the few times it worked it was fun to use, but for the $1000 Gold Package I expect something to last a bit longer than a few hundred rounds. Put the money toward some live ammo and range time.

Thank you Coolfire for your customer service and follow up is outstanding!

Recommended Coolfire to Everyone.

This is the only option of dry-firing with a recoil using your own gun.

Great training tool, efficient, reliable…
And great support service !

Not a great experience, particularly considering the premium price.

First issue was sourcing the CO2 nozzle, long trail of emails to get any traction on it. Ended up having to order a second one. Second one, the delivery cost more than the item...

Now trying to use it and the barrel is extremely temperamental. Some time the valve fails to lose properly and leak the entire content straight away. Some times it holds it but once it reaches a point when pressure is low that it doesn't stay closed any more and leak again.... I don't know.

By the way, the CO2 nozzle has similar issues, and yes, everything is lubed properly. I'm guessing rough finished in some of the parts...

The laser stopped working after just a training session... I'm hopping is just the batteries, but fearing the worse at this point.

Not sure if have been unlucky and got a dud, or just the quality is not there...

Your customer service is top notch. They respond quickly and are of great help.

The device is a perfect way to safetly practice at home recoil movement as well as to getting use to your gun.

Fast shipping and great product! Love it!
