Target stand blue print

What do you use at the range? Does it break down a solid unit? Can you put stuff on it?

I use a staple gun from Walmart.

weve got an assortment of targets we got two wood stands that hold a piece of cardboard then we eithor stick on the sticky targets or staple them on the cardboard we got a metal frame target that we can slide a piece of cardboard down it its the sign holder that came with my house lol then we got a bidinger big piece of steel conected to a bar im in the process of making some silliute targets and some more bidingers!

HAHAHAHAHA, I have the same staple gun

For Pistol, I have a stand made out of PVC, a Rectangle Top and a square base. I then attach cardboard to the frame and my targets...

I have a cheap o from walmart, you stick it in the ground and then hange carb board for backing and then your target. I use it for my grendel. I can place 6 index cards on it with the small red sticker dots and that is what I use to do load development at 100 yards....

wow y'all are fancy lol I drove 4 steel fence posts in my pond bank stick a piece of plywood between em and staple a target on em. Wallyworld sold me one of them staple guns too

I make reactionary steel targets that are a modular design and can be broken down.

I have a el chelpo that I got from cheaper than dirt and I also use a reality metal sign

I'm in the staple gun crowd....or I use the falling plates at the club.....And usually jugs of water if I'm at my brothers house.

the range I go to uses realtor and politician signs for backing stapled to 2 pieces of wood that are mounted in metal posts. to attach my paper target I use golf tees since they are cheap, reusable, and hold the target better than staples IMO. they also remove easier so I don't end up ripping my targets

Plus 1 for politician signs, and they just all happen to be Democrat. Just by chance. I tape used office printer paper to the signs with a drawn on bull’s-eyes. Super high-tech. I also made a frame out of angle iron that holds a ½” plate. My stupid Mosin still blows holes through it.

while I agree with politician signs being used as targets/target holders. Use caution when appropriating them there was a politician in the St. Louis area who is going to prison for stealing Politician signs.

WORD OF WARNING

I made a stand out of an old lawn cart frame cut it down. welded two pieces of 1/2" alltread up right . then took old piecs of conduct drilled a hole in each end slip it over the all thread .Can be removed take wire clothes hanger and make hooks. Can use gator clips solidered to hanger wire. made a metal dinger for it to. I got bored one evening.

When are you gonna open up a store?

yea i started to watch your video the other night im wanting to make one of those to is seems to work great i just need to finish the video and save up some material

While everyone was on the staplegun isle, I was a couple of isles over getting the duct tape. I usually just tape a piece of copy paper (hmmmm, that drawn on bullseye sounds familar too) to a piece of plywood or tin - whatever is handy. One time though my son had given me a pack of the shoot-n-see targets for Christmas. He-he, they didn't last long......

I just remembered. I was at walmart the other day looking around. They have some plinking targets, orange in color, self healers for calibers bigger than a .22. you shoot it and it spins and self heals for more shooting. Great for pistols and rifles and if I remember right less than 20 bucks.. Thinking of getting one for myself. Just don't think you can use hp as it will cause a bigger hole in them..

I definitely will if there is an interest. I have been kicking the idea around for awhile. I can make custom targets to order.
