Handgun targets with center holes can be used with our A-frame and
pendulum combination. The pendulum adapter has a single hole and is
furnished with a modified plow bolt, lock washer and nut. We also
provide a hard thick washer to be placed between the target and
pendulum bracket. The spacer washer helps to maintain the ring by
minimizing the contact between the plate and bracket. (Click on the

The stem clamp permits attaching the target to a stem (1 1/2 by 1
1/2 inch by 1/4 inch) angle iron ). A common 3/4 inch wrench, socket, or ratcheting
wrench is required to tighten/loosen the nut. We have used this system for over ten
years. To date we haven't had any repairs. There is a distinct
difference in the sound when the plate, not the stem, has been hit. The
very center of the plate gives a dull noise when impacted by a
projectile, but again, with a few rounds the shooter knows that the
plate has been hit. The neat thing is that the plate and stem can be
moved as one unit.

The stem mount adapter is our newest offering. It's less expensive than
the plate clamp system and offers more noise and movement when hit. The very center of the target isn't as alive to impacts as is the
remainder of the target, but usually, there is still movement. It's other main advantage is it's ease of
mounting - just set it over the stem - it's done!. Removal of the plate
and adapter is recommended before pulling the stem from it's holder or
moving the entire target and base (doing so will save wear and tear on
your feet). The mounting assembly attaches to the plate with a 1/2"
modified plow share bolt, lock washer and nut. A thick, hard washer
provides minimal contact between the plate and mounting bracket to
maximize ringing.

Mounting the plates to the plate rack only requires two bolts, and
associated lock washers and nuts. Each kit will mount one target to one
of six plate rack hinges positions.
