I use LaserLyte products extensively. The laser "discharges" whenever it "hears" a click. As a result, any time the striker is released, the click will set off the laser. If you have a resetting trigger, that should definitely do the trick.

This new product seems to resolve my one and only complaint about the in-bore LaserLyte trainer, which is that it is always "listening" for the click, and so the batteries run down in no time flat if you don't disassemble the trainer. Since the new Glock trainer barrel apparently turns off by partially unscrewing the barrel, it will be a lot less finicky to turn the trainer off at the end of the session.

If I did not have so much already invested in my current LaserLyte setup, I would definitely get one of these.
 
Good to know the tip on turning it off when not in use.

The listed battery life for the barrel is a lot longer (10,000 shots vs. 3000), and has a built in snap cap, so those are advantages over the standard set up as well.
 
I actually have a SIRT and it is good for what it is, but it still doesn't have the same feel as a Glock, particularly the trigger. I'm looking for the NEXT next level (pun intended).
 
I have both a LaserLyte and a SIRT. The key difference for me is that the LaserLyte emits a brief flash when the trigger breaks, while the SIRT emits a continuous beam as long as the trigger is held down.

I use both the SIRT and the LaserLyte for different drills. The SIRT is good to practice followthrough; if the SIRT makes a dot instead of a line or squiggle, it indicates a smooth followthrough. On the other hand, when actually shooting at the "can" targets, the LaserLyte trainer is harder to hit with. Sometimes, a sloppy shot from a SIRT will result in a spurious hit if the gun jiggles and sweeps across the target.
 
Interesting; thanks for the replies.

JN01 - please let us know if you're able to find a system that more closely replicates an actual Glock trigger. Thanks.
 
I have an old laser setup.
It's not bad, but not real authentic, though.
After looking at the cost and limitations of these new versions, I chose a licensed version of a blowback airsoft version of my "real" gun.
It works exactly the same and makes holes in targets for a real experience.
Pretty good recoil, too, about the same as a .22.
And cheaper, to boot.
Just a thought.
