  • Publication number: 20160216084
    Abstract: A laser activated target comprising at least a first and second target body suspended from a support shaft in a staggered configuration ninety degrees apart, a light sensitive diode affixed in each said target body, a base housing a motor and gearset, a drive extension from the gearset mounted vertically atop said motor and gearset, a circuit board in communication with each diode and speaker mounted laterally to said motor and gearset, said support shaft engaged to drive extension from gearset and extending vertically through said base. The circuit board activated by detection of a laser light strike by said diodes causing the motor and gearset to pivot support shaft ninety degrees exposing the alternate target body and activating the speaker to emit a sound. Alternatively, the laser activated target device is in combination with an oscillating device providing pendulum movement of support shaft and target bodies.

  • Patent number: 9303941
    Abstract: A laser training shooting device adaptable for use in varying caliber barrels of a firearm insertable in said barrels simulating firing of the firearm without actuation of a trigger or a firing pin of the firearm. The laser device consisting of: a laser module composed of a transmitting assembly and optics package; a spud adapter in communication with the laser module, said spud adapter having contact beads for frictional engagement and alignment within said firearm barrel; and, an electrical lead having a means of attachment at a first end to the laser module and a micro-switch disposed within a trigger ring or a trigger hook at a second end positioned at the trigger of said firearm. The laser device being activated by pressing the micro-switch causing the emission of a laser light from the laser module.

  • Publication number: 20150198420
    Abstract: A target system simulating moving real life targets for gun shooting training including in combination a laser transmitter device attached to an oscillator device. The laser transmitter device attached by means of an adjustable bracket to an arm of the oscillator device provides a laser beam presentation which is curved, arched, rising or falling at an angle which simulates trap, skeet, clay targets, a driven bird, jumping teal or chandelle. The arm of the oscillator device provides continuous backward and forward movement at varying frequencies combined with the adjustable bracket providing varying angle and height positions of the laser transmitter device in communication with the oscillator device resulting in unpredictable laser beam presentations simulating real life targets in shooting sports.
