The Smart DryFireMag for Glock 9mm is an advanced dry fire training magazine that lets you combine realistic trigger reset with laser-based shot feedback – without racking the slide between shots. Insert it like a normal magazine, pair it with a SureStrike 9 mm laser cartridge, and you get continuous trigger presses with a visible impact point on target.
Unlike traditional laser cartridges that require a slide rack after every press on Glock pistols, the Smart DryFireMag uses an internal patented mechanism to reset the trigger automatically, so you can run realistic strings, target transitions and double taps while maintaining a full two-handed grip.
The system is tuned to simulate a factory Glock 5.5–6 lb trigger pull, giving you tactile trigger feedback close to a duty pistol. With the optional spring kit, you can tune the pull heavier or lighter to mimic performance triggers or specific agency setups. For Glock Performance Trigger or similar auto-reset triggers, the manufacturer recommends removing the internal spring for a more natural feel.
Laser output from the SureStrike cartridge is recognised by multiple laser tracking simulators and target systems, allowing structured drills, scoring and analytics at home, on the range or in a training room – with zero live ammo cost.
Designed for Glock 9 mm double-stack models such as G17, G19, G19X, G26, G34, G45, G47 and G49, and widely used with Shadow Systems and PSA Dagger platforms, the Smart DryFireMag is highly relevant for sport shooters, police trainers and defence units that need high-volume pistol reps with immediate visual feedback.
Important compatibility note:
The Smart DryFireMag is only compatible with the SureStrike laser cartridge from Laser Ammo USA Inc. and is not compatible with any other laser cartridges. It is not for .22 LR, 10 mm or .45 Auto Glock models.
Key benefits
- No more racking the slide – automatic trigger reset lets you run realistic strings, transitions and double taps with a full two-handed grip.
- Integrated laser feedback (with SureStrike cartridge) shows point of impact on target for each trigger press, ideal for structured dry fire drills.
- Factory-like trigger weight (approx. 5.5–6 lb) with optional spring kit to match agency or competition triggers.
- No wear on firing pin – internal mechanism resets the trigger without using the striker or firing pin, protecting the pistol.
- Massive ammo savings – high-volume pistol training at home with realistic trigger feel, for a fraction of the cost of live fire.
- Made in the USA, backed by a specialist dry-fire company with strong law-enforcement and competition user base.
Overview
- Use cases:
- Daily dry-fire on Glock 9 mm duty pistols and CCW guns
- Structured home training with laser simulators and apps
- Competition prep for IPSC/USPSA/IDPA stages
- LE / military basic and advanced pistol courses
- Training advantages:
- Builds correct trigger press and reset mechanics without slide manipulation
- Enables realistic multiple-shot strings and transitions
- Supports audible & tactile trigger simulation, improving feedback over “dead” dry fire
- Pairs with laser simulators (e.g., Mantis Laser Academy, DryFireOnline, Laser Ammo systems) for scored drills and analytics.
- Compatibility (Glock 9 mm, double stack):
- G17, G19, G19X, G26, G34, G45, G47, G49
- Widely used with Shadow Systems MR920 / XR920 / DR920 and PSA Dagger (same pattern)

Pros & Cons
Pros
- Allows continuous trigger-reset dry fire on Glock 9 mm without racking the slide – huge efficiency upgrade for training.
- Laser integration with SureStrike makes it compatible with many laser target/simulator systems for structured drills and scoring.
- Simulated factory trigger weight and optional spring kit help match real-gun feel across different setups.
- Protects the pistol’s firing pin and internal parts by using its own mechanism for reset.
- Ideal for high-volume practice at home for sport shooters, police and defence without ammo costs or range time.
Cons
- Works only with SureStrike laser cartridge – not compatible with other laser brands or generic laser rounds.
- Specific to Glock 9 mm double-stack frames; users with other pistols need separate Smart mags.
- Some Smart models are non-weighted, so the balance may not perfectly match a loaded duty magazine.
