So, I'm building a target stand tomorrow. Will let you know how it turns out. Planning on this one: http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/edu24.htm Good luck a Quantico. They used to have the 900 inch line, 25 yards, open most of the time which is good enough for pistols. Your target stand should serve you well. The only thing I would do is use water in the base rather than any solid. Take a couple of jugs of water with you each time you shoot and when shooting is over just turn the bottome over and the water runs out and your load to carry back to the vehicle is lighter and when you take it into the garage it is lighter too. The only other thing I would do is put a cross brace or two in it by drilling holes in the wood and using carriage bolts with wing nuts to put it together at the range. Might do some cross bracing if it seems too loose. I'm thinking of just carrying a sandbag. I don't plan on gluing everything together, 'cause I want to be able to break it down. Salmonbait -- 'Name-calling'...the liberals' answer to a lost argument! You know you live in a Country run by idiots if... ....the death penalty is a 'no-no', but death by Hellfire *without* a trial is AOK! |

My wife has a couple cute little sewing machines... I also have two, mine are for shoemakers though. They are a bit older, and a lot bigger We use it for canvas or webbing, etc... |
