During covid times, our parent company which is into LED manufacturing, Rentals and Sales, were shut entirely and struggled. So, we thought differently, put our brains and efforts towards new technologies, and registered MAG5 in Start-up India. As an individual deeply passionate about cutting-edge technologies, my contemplations frequently revolved around harnessing advancements to tackle the challenges faced in the armed and paramilitary forces regarding shooting training. During this period, the concept of mobile shooting ranges took shape, and we embarked upon an exhilarating research expedition that spanned approximately two years.

The road to success was with its fair share of challenges. We had to navigate numerous techno-driven brainstorming sessions and financial obstacles to achieve our vision. However, our unwavering commitment and perseverance paid off, and we are thrilled to have created niche products that cater to the specific needs of shooting ranges.

In recognition of our ground-breaking research and contributions to the field, we have applied for not one, not two, but three patents. The satisfaction of knowing that our efforts have made a tangible impact in improving the shooting training for our armed forces is truly immeasurable. We remain ever-dedicated to pushing the envelope and utilizing innovative technologies to make a difference in the lives of those who serve our nation.

Our container-based mobile shooting range is a pioneering concept that has only been adopted by a few countries worldwide. A meticulous study was conducted to assess India's requirements and technological competence in the international arena, leading to the development of our cutting-edge products and services specifically tailored to real-world war and riot scenarios, catering to the shooters' frame of mind.

Our range includes two distinct shooting experiences: Target Pro for army and paramilitary forces and Target Sports for sports arenas. Our unique distraction mode, specifically designed for defence and paramilitary forces, sets us apart, which features 8D sound and a shaking platform to recreate realistic war situations and riots. The entire range is covered with an intelligent lighting system that can simulate any situation per the client's requirements. Our mobile shooting ranges boast advanced technological features, such as errant shot detection, customizable protection protocol, staff notification, and smart range axis notifications. Additionally, our inbuilt products include gunshot detection, Auto desk shoot mode, Hide and shoot mode, Automated shaking platforms, Conical shaped Bullet trap system, and a solar system.

We take great pride in our ability to provide unparalleled shooting experiences that are innovative and address our clients' specific needs. Our mobile shooting ranges are a testament to our commitment to excellence and relentless pursuit of pushing the boundaries of technological advancement.

A typical shooting range is time-consuming, stagnant, space consuming and immovable, whereas a container-based shooting range with a retrieve system is prudent in time management, mobility, saving spaces and operative at anytime, anywhere, wherever, with the most modernised smart range information system. Our vision for revolutionizing shooting ranges is rooted in the belief that they can be made more adaptable, easy to use, and effective in their training methodologies.

Our mobile shooting range epitomises safety, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology. Traditional shooting ranges require extensive space, permits from authorities, high operational costs and lack technological advancements that cater to individual needs. But we at our innovative company are revolutionizing the shooting range experience through our advanced technologies. We use AR500 armour steel, successfully tested to ensure unparalleled multi-hit capabilities and 360° protection. The range has 5mm sides and 6mm bottoms and an AR500 Body Armor Plate that can sustain high-velocity military bullets of 5.56 and 0.30 calibre with the least back face deformation in the category. Our range is built to perform exceptionally well against steel-core penetrator rounds like the M855, making it the safest range on the market.

Our safety protocols are unparalleled, as our door locking system only unlocks once the shooter has placed their rifle in a predetermined safe manner. Our state-of-the-art protection management system locks inside doors, and the shooter cannot open the door without following the predetermined safety protocol. Before shooting, each individual must pass a psychological test, and after the shooting, they must follow a precise weapon locking and unlocking protocol, with visual checks and weapon-keeping procedures. Our conical-shaped bullet trap system ensures that all misfired bullets are precisely bucketed from any direction, making the range safer.

We also understand the importance of fire and theft protection for guns and ammunition, which is why our mobile shooting range is equipped with cutting-edge technology. Our range is designed to meet the highest safety standards and is ideal for armed forces, paramilitary forces, and sports governing bodies, clubs, and training centres. Moreover, we are determined to expand our reach internationally and make our innovative technologies accessible worldwide. With our commitment to safety, efficiency and unparalleled technology, we lead the way in mobile shooting range design.

Designed, developed, and technologically innovated towards real war situations and shooting perfection through continuous training, which is having mobility and easy access with meticulous MIS assessment, which will massively change the skill set of each firer and make the firer better equipped for any situations. The shooting ranges have a rugged design, and they can be used in any terrain anywhere with a 360° layer of protection.

Interactive Target Retrieval System auto-tune the distances of the shooting targets with precision as per the command. The control unit includes an encoder and PID controller. It includes a hall sensor for self-calibration of the apparatus. Patent applied product.

The carriage unit is mounted on one or more tracks and includes at least one motor configured to drive the carriage unit on the tracks. The carriage unit further includes a plurality of rollers driven by the motor for smooth forward and backward movement. The control unit controls the motor which drives the carriage unit. The control unit includes an encoder and a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller. The encoder can be an optical rotary encoder. The encoder calculates the distance travelled by the carriage unit in terms of a number of motor shaft revolutions coupled to the carriage unit, where the encoder transmits a pulse signal per revolution of the motor shaft. The PID controller monitors the distance travelled by the carriage unit and the accuracy of the travelled distance of the carriage unit and, accordingly, calculates the errors therein. The camera unit is mounted on the carriage unit and is configured to capture images of a target for score calculation. The target holding unit is mounted on the carriage unit and is configured to hold and rotate the target. The target holding unit includes a second motor, which is a stepper motor for precise rotation of the target.

Our distinguished customer base comprises esteemed entities such as the armed forces, paramilitary forces, government bodies, sports clubs, and training centres. All these esteemed organizations recognize the immense value of our state-of-the-art mobile shooting ranges in delivering unparalleled training experiences. Yes, we are also looking forward to positive penetration in the international arenas.
