a-44978 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 (edited) Anybody got layout plans for a clay flopper. I think its called a flopper,a see-saw giz-mo that(when a popper falls on it)throws a clay into the air. Any input would be groovy. Edited March 4, 2006 by a-44978
George Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Pigeon or Clay Flipper is what it's called and they can be purchased pretty cheaply from: http://www.mgmtargets.com/
a-44978 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 looks cool and i think i've shot at them too. but ........... I am designing stages for my local club who don't got that stuff and a treasurer that well................... ........................i can't,or i'm sure gonna get an e-mail from the big guy. So I'm buildin-em myself out of palet wood and ford 6.0L head bolts(got lots!). Thanks for the link I'm gonna adjust my design a little. Don't own a ford 6.0L truck out of warrenty unless you got deep pockets and an extra to drive while its down
MCFooter Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 The MGM Targets are nice, I have been looking for and inexpensive way to do it myself. I found this link in a yahoo search http://www2.tnweb.com/justicentyme/gear/flipper/flipper.html and it happens to be posted by a friend of mine. It looks like quite a bit of work see what you think.
maineshootah Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Pigeon or Clay Flipper is what it's called and they can be purchased pretty cheaply from:http://www.mgmtargets.com/ Having made several "homebrew" flippers, the highest distance we were seeing was about 10'. These MGM flippers when used with the MGM pepper popper THROWS the clays up in the air. They work quite well, and get my vote! java script:emoticon('',%20'smid_13')

Our local range said no way.Somthing about not wanting peices of clays littering the range! CLAYS!BIODEGRADABLE CLAYS!AT THE END OF A RIFLE RANGE!NOT A PRISTINE GOLF COARSE,MIND YOU,BUT A BRASS LITTERED RIFFLE RANGE! Oh well it's just a weekend of R&D and a little labor.
