    For the people complaining about it being a garmin rip off, why are you so mad? This literally does nothing except benefit the consumer as it creates stiff competition and drives the price down. i think you just mad because you bought a Garmin and are sad there is now a cheaper option. if it performs like a Garmin for that price i'm all ears.

      Except when intellectual property rights are not enforced, people lose incentive to innovate, because someone can steal their work and make the same money off of it. That's, like, the whole point. It may make it cheaper in the short term, but it stifles innovation.

    Incredible rip-off. Thousands of shots at indoor and outdoor ranges and my Garmin has only missed two of my shots and has never picked up another gun's shots.
    If they have a delete button that is easily accessible that's worrisome.

      Do you transfer data off of the Garmin? And if so, to your phone; having to involve that & an app? How/why Garmin missed this basic capability is beyond me. I bought the LabradarLX for this reason. It's bigger, but to have that, I don't care. Curious if Athlon buggered that feature, too.
