Been using one of these for thirty years but lost it in a house fire so I bought this as a replacement. The quality is the same but the new one has much better extraction and a much better opening lever. I use this almost every day to get the pups fired up for the coming season and we all love it.

Great product- easy to use!

Love this launcher! Great quality. Easy removal of spent shell case.

Gave away my last dummy launcher, thinking I was done. (Mistake!) Anyway, picked this up and kind of wish I'd purchased the Deluxe Lucky Launcher. Yeah, it would have been more money, but I really like the pistol grip and ability to launch from my thigh. The Retriev-R- Trainer is 'powerful'. At 70, though, it's a little more than I can appreciate if doing some extended work with it. It's a bit hard on the wrist. Certainly does send a dummy a long way, though..... and I've not had any issues with it!

Great product!

This was a fantastic purchase for training my chocolate lab. She is hot on retrieving but became a little gun shy. This helped her overcome that shyness and out her right on track. Didnt expect it to be as loud as it is, but will definitely launch the dummy about 75feet high and about 75 yards on the light loads. When used in conjunction with a bird scent, it is perfect for all your training needs. Very happy with this purchase and the speed in which it was sent. Without a doubt, I will be buying all my dog supplies from Gun Dog Supply!!!!

We are very happy with our Deluxe Retriev-R-Trainer Dummy Launcher Set. Purchase was super easy, shipping was fast and set up was a breeze. This has been so helpful in getting our dogs to train further and steadier. Cannot recommend the product or Gun Dog Supply enough.

Very handy for retriever training. Carry case is convenient, but could be a little sturdier. I like that a cleaning kit is included. Overall, it does everything you need.

Works great and my pointer loves it!

I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but all in good condition, instructions well documented. Dogs are excited about the dummies. Can't wait to get out with it an give the Griffs a workout

This has been a great tool, easy to use, reliable. It's help my pup with not just her retrieving, but make sure she was comfortable with gun fire.

This Launcher arrives with clear instructions and is easy to use. Solid built and capable of heavy field use, have found this manufacturer to be very responsive to inquiries,

This product is made extremely well and really helped my dog get over the loud sounds of gun shots while rewarding him with a retrieve. My dog gets excited everytime I pull the launcher out now

Not as user friendly as old model. Grip is rough and if you don't invert your hand to hold it, you can cause injury.

This has been a great tool we've added to our tool bag. We use green loads and it sends the bumpers very good! Only reason I didn't give it 5 Stars is because when you shoot it a couple times you will definitely feel in in your hand...

Did have an issue with shipping but customer service was spot on and shipped another right away to avoid a delay. Like the response. Product works well.

This works very well, I really like the re-designed latch for loading and un-loading the blanks, easy to use I am well pleased

I can throw a dummy about 30 yards , which is not nearly far enough to train a gun dog . The Retriev R Trainer allows me to launch a dummy 150 yards . My personal rule of thumb , is you need to train at twice the distance you plan your dog to work in a real hunting environment . Your product allows me to be effective by myself . I find your product as a ' must have '

I bought to add another to my Versa Launcher and these work great. Makes training alone much better.

Outstanding product made in the USA. Been waiting months to replace my old launcher that finally failed.Knew I wanted a RRT dummy launcher and during this pandemic it's been trying, finally able to seal the deal,.Quality dummy launcher built solid!Kudos to gundog supply,fast shipping and great service!Steve you have fantastic people working for you !

I bought the Retrev-R-Trainer , because in the past I've also owned the other brands along side the Retrev-R-Trainer. They simply didn't hold up . This was a replacement for my old one which was Forty years old & it went though 1000's of rounds. I never worried about it blowing apart like one of the other brands did in my hand. thank goodness no damage.

Works great so far.

Great product works as advertised!The service from Gun Dog supply was outstanding.

I bought this dummy launcher in the spring and am just getting around to using it with my young dog. Everything you need is in the kit, I added only the lower powered, "green loads" to the purchase. The launcher will send the dummies about 30-35 yards with the green loads, and the dummy 1/2 way inserted. With the dummy fully seated it's probably going about 50 yards. The manual that comes with it does explain how to adjust, shorten, the range, by not fully inserting the launcher into the dummy. The yellow loads will send the dummy probably 75+ yards, but that's out of shotgun range on upland birds in New England. It's still fun though. Once the dog gets more used to it, we may use the yellow loads for water work.

The launcher's projectile rod is much thicker than my previous one. It makes the dummies a lot harder to put on, thus making the dummies not launch as far because of the friction.

Great tool for working on steady to shot and getting the dogs tracking airborne dummies for long distance

Very easy to use and no kick.

I purchased one of these units many years ago, and it was perfect. This unit seems cheaply made. Plus the yellow loads are too much. I'm not hunting on the moon you know. The unit should be shipped with the green rounds.

Zeke loves the dummy launcher, both on the lake and in the field. A great product!

The launcher is the first one I bought. It is easy to use, and my puppy really likes it. Keeps her on her toes. It is a bit louder than I thought. The kit is great. Has everything you need to get started.
