Ace Virtual Shooting

One of the biggest advantages in virtual shooting is the ability to practice potentially lifesaving skills, at any time in the day or night, from the comfort of home. The benefits maximize when the gun and accessories reflect or are identical to someone’s self-defense setup. Ace Virtual Shooting continues to expand its partnerships in the industry for that reason, and the latest to sign on is Primary Arms Optics.

This month Primary Arms Optics announced its collaboration with Ace Virtual Shooting, a leading virtual-reality, marksmanship-training simulator. Now, Ace users can now equip their virtual firearms with a curated selection of Primary Arms Optics, including the rugged RS-10R, the rapid-acquisition RS-15R featuring the ACSS Vulcan Dot reticle and the HTx-1 ACSS optic.

"This partnership with Ace Virtual Shooting is a dynamic fusion of cutting-edge technology and superior optics," said Stephen Morgan, director of product marketing at Primary Arms Optics. "Ace's platform is a true game-changer, and we're redefining the training landscape by bringing the immersive experience of our most sought-after pistol optics into AceVR's virtual world."

AceVR stands at the forefront of virtual reality shooting simulation, employing realistic controllers meticulously designed after actual firearms and compatible with many standard holsters. This cutting-edge simulator shatters traditional training barriers, offering unparalleled accessibility to practice critical marksmanship skills from the convenience of home, with zero ammo costs.

Integrating select Primary Arms Optics into the Ace Virtual Shooting platform unleashes a powerful new training dimension. Users can now experience firsthand the speed and precision of Primary Arms Optics' latest red dots, and for the first time in VR, master the ACSS Vulcan Dot reticle. This innovative reticle features a unique 250-MOA outer ring, intuitively guiding users to faster target acquisition by instantly correcting misalignment.
