gunner40sw Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I am in the market to purchase a Texas star and I am looking for opinions and or reviews of what company produces the best one as far as action and ease of resetting. Also it will mostly be shot with shotgun only using bird shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog009 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Challenge Targets or MGM would probably be my top choices if budget wasn't really an issue. They make great products that should last you quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stick Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 MGM & Red Stitch are probably the top two companies, but their are a lot of companies that make them. We're getting close to the holidays, I would look for sales or sales with free shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luck2011 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 MGM seems to be the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJD Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Red stitch. Competitive price, great quality, and the owner supports the sport of 3 gun. I like the magnets that are used on red stitch stars better than the spring on other stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the magnets that are used on red stitch stars better than the spring on other stars. Red Stitch beats everyone elses using magnets to secure the paddle retainers. MGM's springs that hold the paddles wear out real easily and you have to buy the spring from MGM and they are expensive. Other option MOA Targets good quality and reasonable priced. MOA offers Texas Star kits too. Edited October 17, 2018 by The Donald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeman711 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 MGM is the best, plus they support the sport. Great guarantee and very innovative. Constantly coming up with new ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamj Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 MGM. They make a high quality product and support 3 gun like few other companies do. I like to support those that support our sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacLethal Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 We have 2 different stars from MGM, but I’d be willing to look at the Targets USA model as well. They make good products and the price points aren’t bad either. If we were in the market I’d look into them more heavily.

tke37617 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 my vote is red stitch. the magnets are superior to the springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MILDOTS Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 MGM it will last a life time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tke37617 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I have shot all those listed in previous posts. I can say from experience that I have seen all those mentioned have malfunctions of some type except for 1. We ran over 200 shooters through the Red Stitch Texas Star at a state match without a single malfunction of any type. It is magnetic and it performed flawlessly. All of those listed are good but my best experience has been with Red Stitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam_b Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I am really liking the Innovative Targets star. Uses a trailer hub for the bearing so its grease-able and easily replaced. The base has a built in paper stand for added no shoot fun and the star portion itself is removable so that you can put a spinner on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccampo1129 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 My local range just purchased a Redstitch. I give it a 9.5/10. They had to do some grinding to get the plates to fit right into the grooves but man.... that thing is sweet and convenient with the magnets! Super smooth.

rpm8300 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Red Stitch for the win - I used to be local to the DC area and they provided everyone with new steel for big matches and refreshes - great folks to work with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccampo1129 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Red Stitch is the best ive seen. Easiest to reset but be careful with those magnets. Still have a purple nail from it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
