Abstract: A firearm laser training system according to the present invention includes a laser transmitter assembly and a cartridge adapter assembly, while employing modified blank cartridges to simulate firearm operation. The modified blank cartridges each have a quantity of explosive substance sufficient only to cycle the firearm. The laser assembly is configured for attachment to a firearm barrel and front sight and emits a beam of laser light toward a training system target in response to actuation of the firearm trigger. The laser beam is generally in the form of a pulse having a duration sufficient for the system target to detect a beam impact location. The cartridge assembly is disposed within the firearm barrel to adapt the firearm for compatibility with the modified blank cartridges for simulating firearm operation.

Abstract: A user propelled merry-go-round including a base with a post centrally coupled to a top surface thereof and extending upwards therefrom. Also included is a support pivotally coupled to the post. The support has a plurality of support members extending radially from the post. A plurality of wheel forks are each coupled to an associated support member and extended vertically downward therefrom with an axially aligned bore formed therein. A plurality of bicycle frames are each coupled to an associated support member with a seat situated thereon. Wheels with associated sprockets are each axially coupled to one of the forks via the bore thereof. A plurality of pedal units are axially coupled to an associated bicycle frame whereby the sprocket of the pedal unit and the sprocket of the wheel reside in a similar plane with a chain operatively coupled therebetween for allowing a user to precess about the post upon the rotation of the pedal unit.
