## What is Peregrine?

All the reps, none of the ammo.

Load a laser training cartridge, print a target, and your living room becomes the range, with a shot timer that can see. Peregrine watches through your iPhone or iPad camera and scores every shot: where it landed, how fast, and why you missed.

WHY YOU MISSED, NOT JUST THAT YOU DID
Most dry-fire tools give you a beep and a number. Peregrine maps your group onto the clock face and names the cause behind it: too much trigger finger at 3 o'clock, recoil anticipation at 6. Then it gives you the drill-side fix. When the same fault keeps coming back, it tells you.

WHAT YOU NEED
- An unloaded handgun
- A red laser training cartridge in your caliber
- A printer
- A tripod or stand to hold it steady (strongly recommended; an iPad can simply be propped)

FREE, WITH NO ACCOUNT AND NOTHING TO CANCEL
- Four drills: Free Shoot, Precision Groups, Drawn & Quartered and Quarter Master
- The Center Circle target, printed as often as you like
- Drift Diagnosis and History on your first five sessions
- Par Timer: random start, up to five pars, repeat or loop, and it never needs the camera

That is the full detection engine, not a demo. No sign-up, no email address, no trial running out.

ONE PURCHASE UNLOCKS THE REST
No subscription, no consumables, nothing to buy twice.
- All 25 drills, including official standards and classifiers, with spoken callouts and par beeps
- All six print-at-home target faces
- Drift Diagnosis and History on every session
- Drill Designer, to build your own drills from the same parts the official ones use
- Focused Sessions, chaining drills back to back with no re-scanning when they share a target

TARGETS YOU PRINT, NOT TARGETS YOU BUY
Every target prints on standard letter paper from any printer. A QR code and corner markers let the camera work out scale and angle by itself, so hits are measured against the paper rather than estimated. Every grey, black and off-white is tuned to catch a red laser flash cleanly. Unlimited, free, and nothing branded to reorder.

MEASURE EVERYTHING
Draw times, splits, par times, points per minute. Every session lands in History with its hit map and its times, so you can put any two side by side and watch the trend. Mirror the whole thing to a TV over AirPlay so the room can watch.

For dry-fire and laser training only. Always treat every firearm as loaded, keep live ammunition out of the room, and follow your firearm maker's dry-fire guidance.
