Systems & Capabilities:

Synthetic Marksmanship Training Systems™

Our Synthetic Marksmanship Training Systems™ (SMTS™) focuses on executing customized Programs of Instruction (POIs) with purpose-built drills and escalating difficulty that lead to the cognitive and physical mastery of one’s environment and weapon system.


The SMTS™ program’s electronic, dynamic training algorithms are designed to contain life-like targets with added behaviors such interactivity, immediate response, movement, timing, variable hit reactions & more. This dynamic element of the SMTS™, along with CK’s immense and innovative training program, prepare trainees to pass qualifications at a higher rate and in less time than any other electronic gunfighter training system or advanced live-fire training.


All drills have been built and continue to be refined onsite with the help of experienced, professional operators for over a decade. All training content is customizable and nearly any qualification or training objective can be built directly into the SMTS™.

  • Cognitive Development

TeamTrainer™

The TeamTrainer™ is comprised of three panels that support one to fifteen (1-15) trainees simultaneously and forty-five (45) trainees on rotation.
The TeamTrainer™ is better suited for training with larger groups of trainees and allows for conducting more advanced drills.

This SMTS™ specializes in the following learning objectives:

  • Basic and Advanced Marksmanship
  • SOP Development
  • Rapid Target Engagement
  • Scenario Based Training
  • Language

  • All FlatWall™ learning objectives

Pan220™/Pan220™ Flex

The Pan220™/Pan220™ Flex are comprised of five (5) panels that can support one to five (1-5) trainees in an immersed environment and can also support up to fifteen (15) trainees simultaneously and forty-five (45) trainees on rotation.

Drills in this SMTS™ are run in short, fast-paced intervals – incorporated with a wide variety of both physical and cognitive challenges in the 220-degree, immersive environment (Immersive Configuration) or in a more traditional flat-range style arrangement (Flat Range Configuration).

This SMTS™ specializes in the following learning objectives:

  • Over 2,800 Drills Vetted by the DoD’s Tier 1 Elements and SOP’s
  • Shoot-Don’t Shoot / Threat Identification
  • Cognitive & Ocular Development
  • Human Performance / Physical Training
  • Full Room Entry
  • Situational Awareness
  • Scenario Based Training

220-Degree Immersive Configuration Learning Objectives:

  • Full Room Entry CQB/CQC
  • Peripheral Decision Making
  • 220-Degree Adverse Angle Engagement
  • Quick Twitch Target Identification
  • Crew Served Mechanics / Marksmanship

Traditional Flat Range Configuration Learning Objectives:

  • 1-45 Trainees
  • Basic and Advanced Marksmanship
  • Target Engagements and Transition
  • SOP Development
  • T Intersection, LZ, Open Field, and Urban Street Training
  • Runners and Various Leads on Targets Per Distance
  • Shooting-on-the-Move
  • Bounding & Moving to Cover
  • Tactically Move & Shoot / Barricades
  • Firing Line for Shooter Mechanics

K-SET™

Designed to promote smooth pursuit ocular capabilities, the K-SET™ reduces visual suppression by training smooth eye tracking across a known distance and training eye muscles to perform at higher speeds while taking in more information in less time.
Stationary system specializing in Sports Vision Training (Tracking and Measuring Ocular Capability)

RSMR™

The RSMR™ is an active rest station focused on increasing mental processing speed and perceptual acuity and decreasing decision latency – thus giving the operator a decision advantage.
Stationary system specializing in Neuro-Motor Response (Measuring Decision Latency)

Gunfighter Gym™

The Gunfighter Gym™ configuration is a series of human performance systems arranged to deliver a circuit training approach that lead to mastery of desired skills through short, detailed exposures of each critical piece of the overarching task.
The Gunfighter Gym™ consists of CK’s FlatWall™, TeamTrainer™, Pan220™, K-SET™, and RSMR™, and can support as many as 45 trainees in rotation.
The Gunfighter Gym™ specializes in the following learning objectives:

  • Basic & Advanced Marksmanship
  • Full Room Entry Escalating Programs
  • Target Engagements and Transition
  • Threat / Threat Discrimination
  • Tactical Combat Movements
  • SOP Development
  • 360° Threat / Non-Threat
