Look, I wasn't supposed to say anything, but 2dumb bought the house next door to his, hoping you'd be his redneck neighbor down in North Carolina. Just remember, you didn't hear that from me. :blushing:
So when ya' plan on moving? :)

WTSHTF or TEOTWAWKI, whichever comes first.:sneaky2:

I started out with a base. I used one (1) 8 ft. pine 2x4 and cut it into two foot lengths. I'm using scrap 3/4 inch red oak strips so the gap between the two cross members is 3/4 inch. I clamped a piece of oak in between them as I put it together.

I built the frame so I could take the upper and lower base apart. I figured it would be easier to haul in the truck and easier to carry 100 yards down range and set up. So the upper frame just sits in the lower base.

This is what the completed frame looks like from the back. I just used a piece of cardboard for the target backing.

And from the front with the clay pigeon holders installed.

and a close up of the pigeons (and a neighbor's kid).

I made three frames but only one has pigeon holders. The holders are just made out of clothes hangers. They hold the pigeons in place by pressure only. There is a small ring around the pigeon that is the same size as a coat hanger and it fits perfectly. And..it's easy to adjust.

I purchased 3 2x4s for less than $8. I had the oak strips but you could easily use pine 1x2 strips. They are 5 1/2 feet high. You'd have less than $10 in the strips if you have to buy them. We have a recycle center in town so I borrowed some cardboard from them. I'll return it once I'm done with it. The pigeons were less than $8 for 90 at Wally World and the clothes hangers were free from the cleaners. So, all in all, I have probably $20 in three targets if you include something for the oak strips.

Finally, here's a shot of those cussed lanterns. The military must really NOT like service personnel to inflict them with these things. One works like a banchie, one works sorta okay and one works but I'm not sure why. It puts out enough light to know its burning.

Paracord and braided vehicle wire.

I moved this to the guns page since it would up being about shooting.

pictures man pictures. how about hooking up a brother with some pictures.:)

i'm especially wondering what those lanterns look like.

a few minutes ago there wasn't any pictures now there is

So....I take you don't read the threads? Just look at the pictures? That's okay. Back up to post 23....just sayin'.

Glad to know this was moved, thought I was seeing things.
Like the clay bird holders, so is the girl a moving target?
I like novelty shoots.
Like the target boards, have used pallets for a lot of years, but the center gets shot up.

Rick....thats a great target board, but when are you gonna shoot that dang Mosin?:smash:

I'm not buying it. It didn't take that long to make target stands. Where were you really? We won't tell anybody.
