This guide, presented by TA Targets, focuses on building a professional and durable shooting range. It emphasizes investing in high-quality, long-lasting steel targets and systems, such as AR550 plate racks, falling trees, and dueling trees, over superficial amenities. The instructor highlights the cost-effectiveness and safety benefits of armored posts over traditional wooden supports and suggests T-post mounting for flexibility, particularly on ranges with natural grass. The ideal range setup includes a variety of reactive and static steel targets to enhance shooter engagement and training.
This video features Justin Opinion at the range with a full-sized SIG Sauer P320 chambered in .45 ACP. He expresses disappointment that this model is no longer in production, highlighting the current market trend of reduced .45 ACP offerings due to demand for 9mm. The session includes shooting at steel plates and a falling tree target, with observations on the gun's smooth shooting characteristics and the significant improvement provided by Talon grips. The instructor also engages viewers by asking about alternative full-sized .45 ACP striker-fired handguns.
This video introduces a patented "Falling Tree Target" system, positioning it as a superior training alternative to traditional "Dueling Trees." The description highlights how the target's rotating and dropping paddle design forces shooters to practice fundamental skills such as target acquisition, sight picture re-acquisition, and follow-up shots. It emphasizes the target's ability to facilitate speed clearing drills and integration into shooting and moving exercises. The target is constructed with a 3/8" AR550 steel paddle and a hardened steel track, designed for durability. The video aims to showcase its advanced training value for competitive shooters and those focused on self-defense.
