The Lucky Launcher II Gun Dog Kit includes the Lucky Launcher II dummy launcher, one white canvas dummy, one white plastic dummy, cleaning kit, and a box of 100 medium loads. It combines the sound of the shot with the flight of the dummy and permits one-handed operation so that your other hand is available for training.

Uses the same launcher dummies and loads as our other dummy launchers.

Features:

  • Orange and black color scheme
  • Pistol-grip
  • Built-in removable rubber covered metal stock
  • Fire 1-handed from the shoulder or thigh

    NOTE: When training on water, make sure the launch tube in each dummy is dry before re-launching. If water is in the launch tube when the dummy is placed on the launcher, it can enter the firing port, drowning the load and causing a misfire. We recommend having multiple dummies available so the wet ones can dry between launches.

    Manufacturer Warranty:

    The Lucky Launcher II is guaranteed by the manufacturer to be free of defective workmanship and materials for a period of THREE YEARS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE. This guarantee is void if other than the recommended power charges are used or if the product is not used in conformance with its instructions.

    Transcript from Steve's Video:

    This is the new Lucky Launcher. The folks at Retriever Trainer have made a couple of changes to it, making it an easier product to use. Youll notice the stock comes in two parts now. So, going to attach it together. This allows you to carry it in something smaller. When you buy it as the kit, you get a case that comes with it. So its easy to break down and you can carry it inside the case.

    The Lucky Launcher is one of my favorite dummy launchers. It works off of 22 power loads just like the Retriever Trainer. Open it up, put your loads in here. Close it up to fire it. Attach your dummy and then you cock it. And youve got a pistol grip that allows you to fire it when you are ready.

    Whats great about the Lucky Launcher is that it allows one-handed operation. When you are working with younger dogs, this can come in handy. It just allows you to have that extra hand in case you need it, unlike the Retriever Trainer, which requires to hands to operate. The Lucky Launcher, you can cock it and then fire when ready.

    One of the things I like to point out about the Lucky Launcher is that while this may look like a shoulder stock, its generally not recommended that you fire it that way. You can, but the kick on it is a little much for most people. Even though its got a little padding here, I just dont recommend it.

    Its actually designed to be fired off of your thigh. So then you angle it whichever way you need to. Having it as a one-handed operation comes in real handy, especially when you are working with younger dogs. It just gives you that option in case you need to do something else with that other hand.

    This is the Lucky Launcher kit. It comes with a hard-shell case, two dummies, a box of loads, plus a gun cleaning kit. We sell it several other ways. You can buy it as a set, which is just going to be the launcher, dummy, and a box of loads. And then you can buy the Lucky Launcher by itself. This version of it I like just from the standpoint that its easy to break apart. Its going to be a little easier to keep with you.

    The Lucky Launcher 2. Its a great dummy launcher for folks that are looking for a high-end launcher.

    Lucky launcher II
    January 26, 2021
    Solid product I have only used with medium loads so far. It doing what I needed. The trigger and shooting from the hip is awesome
    Pros
    • The hand grip and trigger makes it easy to use.
    • The shell kick out is a lot nicer than the older hand helds
    • I'm able to run doubles easy do to the easy of loading and unloading

    Great Training Tool
    March 7, 2023
    Great tool for training, if you have a dog that breaks on the shot and doesn't when hand thrown bumper this is your tool coupled with E-Collar. I will say that you will only need the light loads to launch unless you get the uber large bumper which I haven't tried. The normal size bumper goes 100+ yards with medium loads.
    Pros
    • One hand operation so other hand can be on collar remote.
    • Launches further than hand thrown to condition your dog with exercise.
    Cons
    • Don't know of one.

    Duck launch dummy poorly made
    August 6, 2021
    I bought one last year for my new lab. I hve had some trouble with some loads but that trouble went away when I started keeping all my loads in plastic zip locks to prevent ANY moisture. The duck dummy launcher i ordered with the kit did not last more than 20 shots. The pressure from the shot opened up a small hole in the foam near the neck. This loss of pressure does not allow the duck to fly more than 10 yards I should have returned it last year when it happened but just got busy then the next thing you know a year has gone by, you know how it goes. I also had some issues with the packaging when I first received the launcher(the loads had come loose and were all over the box thee package sounded like a rattle.) The customer service was exemplary they immediately sent more loads. Overall the launcher works well and yes definitely wear hearing protective while using. And keep the orange bolt handle tight(it loosens up) keep a little Vaseline handy for the o ring. They should include an extra o ring. Most importantly my dog loves it!
    Pros
    • one hand operation
    • Customer service from GDS
    • Does what its supposed to.
    Cons
    • duck dummy poorly made.

    Good, but not perfect
    May 12, 2021
    The Good: The Lucky Launcher II launches the provided bumper a distance of 50 to 60 yards (measured) with the medium power loads that came with it. Right now, I'm using it to drill my dog on steadiness. The one-hand operation is important because it leaves my other hand free to hold her collar. The load report mimics the sound of a shotgun, adding to the stimulus. (The warning to wear ear protection should be taken SERIOUSLY.) In the near future, I plan to use it to create longer retrieves over varied terrain, including water, and the range will make this possible.
    Power loads are reliable. I've used about 1/3 of the 100 that came with it with no misfires.
    The Not-So-Good: The provided canvas bumper has a smoother surface than other canvas bumpers and my dog sometimes struggles to keep a hold on it. I have already ordered a compatible bumper from another manufacturer.
    The recoil is surprisingly heavy. It feels about like my 12 gauge O/U shooting 3" goose loads. Since it doesn't generate nearly the momentum of a 12 gauge, I attribute the felt recoil to the light weight and the rudimentary stock. I've taken to wearing a PAS recoil pad when I shoot it.
    Cleaning it is problematic. A bore snake will not go through it. Neither will a .22 pistol cleaning rod and patch. I got one stuck in the bore and had a time getting it out. I've taken to cleaning it with an aerosol bore scrubber and compressed air and lubricating/preserving it with a spray lubricant. Not as effective as I'd like but it works. Also, I only get about 10 launches before enough residue builds up in the chamber to make chambering a new blank difficult.
    Pros
    • Reliable
    • Good Range
    • One-handed Operation
    Cons
    • Heavy recoil
    • Bumper difficult for dog to grasp
    • Difficult to clean

    Buy it!
    December 21, 2020
    Great product, I’m not sure who likes it more me or the dog! It’s a great training aid and tons of fun. Buy extra O rings. They are only 40 cents and if your dog likes it as much as mine does it’s good to have some on hand.
    Pros
    • Great product for a active dog
    Cons
    • It's got some kick for a 22

    Launcher is great
    September 4, 2020
    It works well but the charges are almost never the same distance. Some don't get off the launcher, some go 10 feet and others might fly 200 with the medium charges.
    Cons
    • Definitely is a punch to your leg

    Wish I had ordered one of these years ago. Have used the hand held launchers for some time. The recoil from them has been harder to handle as I get older and I get more arthritis in my hands and wrists. The stock on this allows you to place it on your thigh to absorb the recoil. Very nice product and works as it should. I received a box of green (low) loads with the launcher but have had quite a few “duds” even after making sure things are dry. Would recommend the yellow loads which I believe are medium.

    Works very well! It's easy enough that my son who is 7 is able to launch the dummies for me while we are working our dog. Great training tool for both of my young hunters.

    I use the Launcher all and at this point, I never had an issue with this or had to replace the O ring! Despite having a few acres I can't shoot a gun on my property! However, this mimics a gun and is legal! Love it!

    Review for Lucky Launcher II Dummy Launcher Set
    July 4, 2016
    Many misfires with 22 blanks. I do not know if this is due to my blanks or the launcher set. When the launcher shoots well the dummy goes for a long ride. Retrieves in the 60 yard range are common. Great training tool when it works well. My dog is improving his breaks at sound of shot. Long retrieves and a tired but still excited lab at end of session is a bonus.

    I had to use a throwable dummy to begin with but now use the shoulder dummy launcher. When I take it out my dog goes crazy wanting to retrieve the dummy. This product is great for fine tooling my dog. Great product. Very well made!!
