Our AR400 3/8" thick
plates are cut in a water bath on a high definition computer
controlled plasma machine. The edges remain as hard as the rest of
the plate. All of our plate designs and mounting hardware are
designed to permit reversing of the targets so either side may be used.
We have found that all metal targets will bend. Soft metal will
cup toward the direction of the incoming bullet. Hard metal targets cup
away from the line of fire. We have targets that have been in use since
1996, some are on their 4th flip over.
Our target plates, mounted with one hole, are drilled
and counter sink on both sides to accept a 1/2" modified grade 8
plow bolt. The double counter sink permits either side of the plate
to be used as a target. The grade 8 plow bolt, located in the center of
the metal targets, have received numerous hits from handgun rounds without failure.
Our Pepper Popper
targets use 2 square holes for mounting with grade 5 carriage bolts.
They also are designed to be reversible.
We can cut plates of
your design. Mounting holes can be changed to fit your requirements,
when requested
and if we concur on the requested location and hole size. The
individual drawings provide our target dimensions and hole layouts.
We offer four mounting methods for our
steel handgun targets whose holes are in or near the center of the metal plate.
Medium sized (mini, also called 2/3 size) plates with holes at the bottom use
a small base for the Pepper
Poppers. Full sized Pepper Poppers use a larger base. The 1/2 size pepper
poppers have a unique base that holds 2 of the plates that cross
each other when knocked down.
We have a number of plate designs with which to populate our plate
rack.
