Glock 19 Cool Fire Trainer. Is it worth it?

Hello all. I've been looking for a good training aid to practice in my garage and so far what I can see is that the CoolFire Trainer is the way to go but the price point not so much. Has anybody used this system what is your input on it?

When is was at Shot Show 2020 I had the chance to stop by the booth but sadly they ran out of air on the last day so i didn't have the opportunity to test it.

    You can buy a Glock 44 for not much more money and have an actual gun, so no, it is not worth it. Welcome hey.

    That's a lot of money just to induce some recoil. I personally would pass. 

    Something I AM looking into, is a .177 pellet pistol that duplicates my Glock 19.

    Yes, but, see the above recommendations ;) Nothing like a little focus group feedback....

    Thanks for the input. I've considered the airsoft route as well but most sites I've looked up have been out of stock. I can see how airsoft firearm's would be a good platform that I can practice in the garage and or in my backyard but never crossed my mind. My only problem is replicating the platform I use so I have a 1:1 replica of my platform I run. As I did some research last night, I came across a company who partnered up with P80 and made frames for some airsoft Glocks so I may go that route. Thank you all

    Since you came back I guess it's not spam.  Sorry we get a LOT of one time posters trying to sneak in and break the rules.  Welcome.

    I have seen this advertised, but have no first hand knowledge
