The Free Range Demo That Usually Costs Thousands

If you called and asked a company to bring out moving target systems and run them on your range, you’d expect to pay thousands. That’s standard.
But there’s one version of that experience that’s completely different.
We run free demo days for law enforcement and military units across the US and Canada. No cost. No obligation. Just a few hours of real training with moving targets.
So what’s the catch?
The Catch? Just Your Feedback
The deal is simple.
You get a free, four-hour block of moving target training on your own range. In return, the team asks for honest feedback on how the systems perform in real conditions.
After working with more than 2,000 units and ranges, one thing has become clear: the best ideas don’t come from a workshop. They come from operators actually using the equipment.
What Happens on Demo Day
When the team shows up, they come prepared.
A fully loaded van arrives with:
Multiple moving target systems
Hostage rescue targets
Additional training tools like thermal targets
All required setup gear
Everything is prepped to get up and running quickly. From there, the goal is simple: get shooters behind the trigger as fast as possible.
You’ll typically see:
Moving target drills across the range
Shoot / no-shoot scenarios
Hands-on time with different systems
Real-time adjustments based on your training needs
The demo isn’t scripted. It’s built around how your team trains.
You Run the Range
One important detail: you stay in control.
Your range officer (RSO) continues to run:
Safety briefings
Range commands
All operational protocols
The Dynamic Range team handles the targets and setup, but your department maintains full control of how the range operates.
Make the Most of the Time
The demo is usually a four-hour window, and efficiency matters.
To get the most out of it:
Bring your own drills
Test every system available
Rotate as many shooters as possible
Invite nearby departments or units
The more people who run the systems, the better the feedback—and the more value you get from the session. If there’s a specific scenario you want to test, let the team know ahead of time so they can plan for it.
Setup Is Fast and Flexible
In most cases, the team will drive directly to the berm and unload. If your range has restrictions—like limited vehicle access or long walk-ins—just flag it ahead of time.
If your department is already planning to purchase, there’s an added benefit. The team can install your system on-site at no cost, including posts and hardware. That means your range is ready to go before they leave.
A Few Things to Know Ahead of Time
To keep everything running smoothly, there are a few quick details to cover:
If anyone on your team can’t be on camera, let them know beforehand
Provide any range-specific safety requirements or flags
A range danger area template (if available) helps with setup
Be ready to guide where targets can safely be placed
Other than that, the day is straightforward.
No Sales Pitch, Just Real Training
At the end of the session, the team will sit down and ask questions.
What worked? What didn’t? What would you change?
That’s the entire purpose of the demo. There’s no hard sell. Just a conversation about whether the system fits your training needs.
How to Get a Demo
Demo spots aren’t random. They’re pulled from the company’s email list based on location.
If your department wants to be considered for a future visit, the best step is simple: get on the list.
Training Without the Barrier
For many departments and units, access to realistic training is limited by cost, logistics, or infrastructure.
It gives teams a chance to run moving targets, test real scenarios, and evaluate whether dynamic training is worth bringing into their program.
