Abstract: A bullet target configured to improve the skills of a shooter includes, in one embodiment, a head plate which is attached to an arm by a resilient or semi-resilient attachment member to allow the head plate to visually deflect when hit by a bullet and to substantially return to its original position. In another embodiment, the improved target utilizes an attachment mechanism which allows the head to rotate relative to the arm within a stop to minimize transfer of vibrations between the head plate and the arm. In a third embodiment, a plurality of head plates are used in alignment and selectively exposed to the shooter to improve decision making ability.

Abstract: A portable bullet target configured to improve the skills of a shooter includes, in one embodiment, a shooting plate which is attached to a frame by protrusions integral to the shooting plate to allow the shooting plate to visually deflect when hit by a bullet and to substantially return to its original position. In another embodiment, a foot or feet are attached to the frame to support the target. According to another embodiment, a plurality of portable targets are used in combination and may be attached together.

Abstract: An improved drop/turn target is easier to construct and operate than existing drop/turn targets. The drop/turn target may be adjusted for wear, and may easily be configured to operate in a variety of different modes. The drop/turn target may also be raised or lowered during operation and may be automatically reset for subsequent use.

Abstract: A turn-swing target adapter allows increased flexibility in moving and controlling a target for use in shooting ranges and ballistic training areas. In particular, the adapter allows an operator to rotate the target, swing the target forwards and backwards, or any combination thereof. The adapter allows for convenient mounting to a separate base or to an existing target mounting system.

Abstract: A target system includes a plurality of targets mounted on a center support so that the targets rotate between opposing sides of the center support. Preferably, the targets rotate about an axis which is between 5 and 30 degrees less than vertical, and have faces which are disposed at an angle between 5 and 30 degrees less than vertical.

Abstract: A modular target system includes a plurality of targets mounted on a center support so that the targets rotate between opposing sides of the center support. Preferably, the targets rotate about an axis which is between about 5 and 30 degrees less than vertical, and have faces which are disposed at an angle between about 5 and 30 degrees less than vertical.
