ABSTRACT:
A device that simulates the firing of a firearm. The device includes a piezoelectric crystal for detecting high amplitude acoustic pulses generated when the firing mechanism of the firearm is activated. The piezoelectric crystal provides a voltage pulse to a amplitude detecting circuit. If the pulse generated by the piezoelectric crystal is above a threshold value, the amplitude detecting circuit causes a laser diode to be energized. The laser diode directs a beam at the target to allow the user to determine where the "shot" is fired. The laser diode is activated for a sufficiently long period of time to allow the laser spot to be visible to the human eye and also to allow a streak to be developed if the firearm is pulled slightly by the user when the trigger is pulled. The device is conveniently mounted under the barrel of the firearm.
