AWLAZS Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I was watching one of those shooter shows on tv. They were testing WWII assault rifles out. They were shooting at a paper target that had a steel plate behind it. When the finally hit the plate it fell backward and the target fell forward. Does anyone know where I could get something like that? The guys at work would love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdphotoguy Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Be easy enough to setup, attach a cable to the steel plate and when it falls it pulls the paper target down. Take a little work, but doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWLAZS Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 The steel was located behind the target. The shooter could not see it. It was held up high in the upper a zone. The target fell when it was incapacitated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmorris Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Simple, make a target like the one in the rear of this video, except move the stake pockets in front of the steel plate and don't add the 2nd set of stake pockets. http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o213/jmorrismetal/flopclam.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its probably one of these: LINK Looking at it, I think the set-up will require some fine tuning to position the paper target correctly, and it probably needs a flat, level range.
