TapRack App For iPhone

    Thanks to ENDO for this gem.

    There are just some things not conducive to the “app” experience, and this is one of them.  Awkwardly holding the phone like a gun, sliding the index finger across the smooth screen where the picture of the trigger is, banging the awkward grip against your support hand, then grabbing the top of the smooth screen where the slide is to “rack” it just looks (and is) dumb.  The TAP – RACK – BANG action is about action / muscle memory, and people practice it by loading primerless rounds or snap caps etc… into mags to simulate failure.

    The App is free. Dynamic Idea Group is the one who makes this App. I am sure video gamers will like it. But Mike’s assessment is accurate. It is a gimmick for a phone and does not help practice for solving malfunctions. I just downloaded it and it is awkward. Aside from holding a phone like a gun with no grip, the trigger pull is long and must be reset at full length. Even though it looks like a Glock, it does not have the short Glock trigger reset. However the benefit is that it is free and somewhat entertaining.
