I’ve shot on a variety of firearms simulators, and while I liked some better than others, all provided good training in threat recognition and response.  Like all technology, simulators are constantly improving.

A program called Training Lab, offers wide-screen, high-definition video and Dolby 5.1 sound, increasing the realism to provide a better training experience.  The Training Lab comes with 150 scenarios, each with multiple possible outcomes, and the ability for the instructor to control different aspects of the scenario “on the fly.”
