I think that was a famous line in either a shark movie or an airgun movie. not sure. aaany way --heres a few more targets I,m working on. (oh and i hope everyones okay and still healthy.) this was an old target frame i had laying around. it has magnets in it so i just stuck some can lids onto the magnets to blast at. and i have 2 more animal shapes to cut out of these junction box covers. once i have all 4 ready i.ll smooth them off with a bench grinder and paint them. these metal targets can really take a beating.

Nice tagets Pete! wishing I had got those magnets now to make the flipper targets....not as much fun plinking solo, but I suppose I could challenge my lady to a match and wager houshold chores, ohhhhh and I just feel all of you cringe... :D

cheers-Matt

A garage for a man is like a purse for a woman. It's always too small.
I'm looking for a way to expand mine so I can have a better shooting setup and fit more cars.

thanks guys. the hard parts done. I just gotta paint them and mount them and shoot them. retired now and I,m getting into the bad habit of sitting on the couch watching t.v. and napping most of the day. so I figured making these would keep me occupied for a few days. done for the day so I guess it,s off to the couch. in my case onto the couch. later.

thanks guys. I,m done. they turned out good. I made a little stand for each one so I can move them around to different places and clamp them down. I didn,t get fancy and tie a string to them to reset them after I shoot them down. I don,t have far to walk to reset all my targets. probably shoot that nice paint job all up tomorrow maybe. double click for bigger pic.

I just made this up today. I bought this daisy shatterblast target a loooong time ago. it was still new in the box collecting dust. so I made up a frame for it and now it can go up on my shootin wall.
