I got this for my father in law for Christmas, and this thing is awesome! He just lit up when that thing shot for the first time! The dog loves it and it's a great way to wear him out!

For the first use, it worked quite well. Seems to be well made. Proper hand position is important. Time will tell on how much I like it after years of use.

Gun Dog Supplies services and delivery of items ordered was excellent. Order the retrieve-R-trainer dummy launcher set with a couple of throw dummies late one afternoon. All items were delivered as promised with 24 hrs. Great service and great products.

Simple and effective. I've noticed already that you'll really need to clean after each use. The loads have a lot of residue. However, being able to make 80-100 yard marks training solo is amazing. Thanks again!

So glad to get this in record delivery time! Last one (same brand- over 16 yrs. old) finally wore out. Have one dog who thinks that this is the only way to play...every day! Thanks for great service and only a few days waiting for the dog. She was pretty excited when that package arrived!

My dog can't quite follow the dummy yet. This thing launches great. I was really surprised at the power it has. He is getting the hang of it. I'm very satisfied with the kit. Everything you need in a nice case. I would recommend it to anyone.

Good quality and very useful for proper training. I strongly suggest purchasing a stock for this piece. When you begin to train at longer distance the hand shock can be brutal.

I bought this for my husband for Father's Day because I overheard him talking about wanting one. I kept my fingers crossed that this is what he was talking about. It was. He couldn't wait to try it and used almost the whole pack of "bullets" that it comes with. He and Raven, his best friend, black lab, could have stayed out there for hours. He should have worn earplugs before trying it (solely his fault), but other than that he said this was the best present ever. Now, I have to go reorder some "bullets" because if I let him on this site, we'll be broke!

This dummy launcher works as advertised and throws the dummies plenty far enough for dog training. It has significantly improved the distances I can work my dog, since it throws the dummies farther than I can. I would definitely suggest the user wear hearing protection. Even though this uses .22 blanks, it is considerably louder than the bark of a typical .22 rifle.

I purchased this training gun, because my older one that I have used for years (I purchased it in early 1975), the cartridges after shooting it were hard to extract. I used a pair of pliers to pull the cartridge after the extractor would lift it part way out. My new gun works beautifully. Love it and the new dummies with the black and white tails. My dog sperry loves them as well.

I bought this for a friend. I've had a Retriev-R-Trainer about 35 years, and it works great. I've also had another brand. Looks similar, but isn't very good. I did not want to see him get this one. Thanks Russ

My dogs love this thing and not having to, or being able to throw a bumper as far as this will makes it worth it. I have several acres behind my house, and if I don't use the green loads, the dummies go a bit too far, but in an open area they are all great. Until I break down and buy a remote launcher, this is the ticket.

let me tell you this thing kicks a$$ with the medium loads it came with shot probably 250ft my newest dog is 6months and although the report was louder than i thought she handled it well and her excitement about it is off the hook definitely worth the 80bucks

This was a total piece of junk. The dummies fell apart almost immediately, and the cartridges were difficult to remove. I have since bought a different system and have had no problems. I would not reccomend this product.

Wow! Used for the first time today at my local state lake. Flawless functionality, truly an excellent product & training device. I don't spend the time to do many reviews, but I felt it necessary in this case. I've corrected two retrieving issues with my lab in just one session! Money well spent, I shouldn't have waited so long to make this purchase. Thanks!

LIKE: simple device, each to eject spent brass, durable design, easy to operate, nice storage case.
DISLIKE: must be kept dry after water work (metal center tube of float rusts quickly), considerable variation in response of loads (at least for yellows),

The moderate-power cartridges that came with it are too powerful. They throw the dummy about 70-80 yards, when half that would do. The spent cartridges are a little difficult to eject. Need to flip the lever several times to get them out enough to grab and pull hard. Other than that, the unit works fine.

Handy, light, excellent tool.
However, basic launcher dummies aren't that good.
Plastic plate in the bottom breaks easily in winter. Also I have had some minor difficulty with wet dummies - insetad of loud bang thre is only soft puff.
Anyway, I'm very satisfied for it's performance.

The launcher shoots the dummy a long way. The first time I used it I was amazed, not knowing what to expect. I got the combination of knowing whether my dogs were gun shy and training them to retrieve the dummy on land and water. I like it alot. I recommend it to anyone who wants to train their hunting dogs or even just for fun watching their dog retrieve in water or land.

If you have to train alone, the Retriev-R-Trainer is a valuable tool in the steadying process. Our traing group also uses them for re-enforcing steadiness by lining up our steady dogs and sending one at a time while the others stay seated (hupped) during the retrieve. This process is repeated until all dogs get atleast one retrieve.

I really like this product to add distance and excitement to training. It is not the best for marking work as the bumper is being launched from the line and is not being thrown out in the field. But for someone that is training by them selves, as I do most of the time, it is a great item to have.
