COMPATIBLE ELECTRONIC TARGET OR SIMULATOR REQUIRED: The invisible infrared laser must be used with a compatible electronic target or simulator capable of detecting its signal. It does not provide visible feedback on paper, physical or other non-electronic targets.
SMART LASER COMPATIBILITY: This system works only with the included Smart SureStrike Infrared 9mm Laser Cartridge. It is not compatible with firing-pin-activated or other third-party laser cartridges.
No magazine spacer required: The Smart DryFireMag works directly in compatible RXM Subcompact, Compact and Full-Size configurations.

Using another GLOCK-pattern platform? These pistols use platform-specific trigger systems. Choose the Smart IR system designed specifically for your pistol rather than using the RXM magazine interchangeably.
Prefer visible laser feedback? Choose the complete Smart Red system for visible feedback on paper, physical and reflective targets without requiring an electronic target.
The Smart DryFireMag® for Ruger® RXM® IR Laser Training System combines repeated trigger-reset simulation with invisible infrared laser feedback. Practice trigger control, presentation from the holster and other dry-fire drills with your compatible 9mm Ruger RXM—without manually cycling the slide between trigger presses.
The Smart SureStrike™ Infrared 9mm Laser Cartridge emits an invisible IR signal that must be detected by a compatible electronic target or simulator. It does not provide visible feedback on paper, physical or other non-electronic targets.
Because the laser is invisible, IR training encourages you to use your firearm’s sights or optic instead of watching a visible laser dot or shooting from the hip.
COMPATIBLE ELECTRONIC TARGET OR SIMULATOR REQUIRED: The invisible infrared laser must be used with a compatible electronic target or simulator capable of detecting its signal. It does not provide visible feedback on paper, physical or other non-electronic targets.
SMART LASER COMPATIBILITY: The Smart DryFireMag communicates with the included Smart SureStrike Infrared 9mm Laser Cartridge. It is not compatible with firing-pin-activated or other third-party laser cartridges.
When properly installed and adjusted, the rechargeable Smart DryFireMag detects the simulated trigger press and wirelessly activates the Smart SureStrike Laser Cartridge. This provides infrared laser shot feedback without requiring the firearm’s firing pin to strike the cartridge.
Important: The Smart DryFireMag simulates trigger reset. It does not cycle the slide, operate the firearm’s action or fire a projectile.
Because the infrared signal is invisible to the shooter, it cannot be used as a visible aiming reference. This encourages you to establish your sight picture through the firearm’s sights or optic while a compatible electronic target or simulator detects the signal.
Compatible training options include the LaserPET II™, I-MTTS electronic targets and compatible Smokeless Range® simulator configurations.
This is a complete Smart DryFireMag Laser Training System—not a Mag Only product. It includes the rechargeable Smart DryFireMag, proprietary Infrared 9mm Laser Cartridge, safety-pipe components and other accessories needed for compatible infrared training.
A compatible electronic target or simulator capable of detecting the infrared signal is required and sold separately.
The Smart DryFireMag contains an internal rechargeable lithium battery and includes a USB-C charging cable. Allow approximately 2.25 hours for a full charge, which can provide up to approximately 50,000 trigger presses or laser pulses. Actual battery life can vary with use and storage conditions.
The Smart SureStrike™ Laser Cartridge uses replaceable, non-rechargeable battery packs designed to provide thousands of laser pulses. Two laser-cartridge battery packs are included. Keep the protective shrink wrap on each battery pack during use, and remove the battery pack from the laser cartridge after every training session to reduce battery drain and extend its storage life.
The DryFireMag ships with a pull weight that closely approximates the firearm’s actual trigger pull weight. Trigger configurations, installed components and individual firearms can vary, so the simulated trigger pull might not feel identical to the live-fire trigger pull of every pistol.
One lighter accessory spring is included for an optional trigger-pull reduction of approximately ½ pound.
If your pistol uses a custom trigger that resets forward to the cocked position, we recommend removing the Smart DryFireMag’s internal spring. Follow the included adjustment instructions before training.
The Smart DryFireMag has a black magazine body with a red baseplate and red lever to help distinguish it from live-fire magazines during dry-fire practice.
Always verify that your firearm is unloaded and follow the included product instructions before beginning any dry-fire training session.
Watch our Red vs. IR comparison to understand the differences in laser visibility, target requirements and training applications before choosing your system.
Choose IR for sight- and optic-focused training: The invisible IR laser requires a compatible electronic target or simulator. Because you cannot see the laser, you must use your sights or optic instead of watching a visible laser dot.
Choose Red for visible feedback: The visible red laser works with paper, physical and reflective targets without requiring an electronic target. It can also be used with compatible electronic targets and simulators.
