KNOCK DOWN TARGET

[mole catcher 1]

Im posting this for iron man andy as hes a little shy of doing so himself.

 

these are 2 knock down targets that andy has made when he should be working (what with me allways after help he doesnt get much done down his workshop :whistle: ). The one on the left is made up of 4 squares each with their adjoining corner clipped to make a center hole of 15mm. this has a bell behind it that when struck gives a resounding clang indecating a hit. If you miss however all you hear is a dull thud. The one on the right is a rat that when hit on the 25mm kill zone, falls over. If you hit the rat anywhere other than the kill zone again all you hear is a dull thud, Oh and maybe your mates laughing and the rat remains standing.

 

these are great ways at keeping your eye in and having a bit of fun. I also think they go to show this mans enthusiasm for the sport of air rifle shooting. Now andy, as your mate PUT THE GUN DOWN AND GET BACK TO WORK

I'm not shy, you were the one with the camera!!

 

 

GUN IS FUN.....WORK IS BORING

 

(When I said that I wasn't shy, and that you had the camera, i didn't mean it in THAT way! )

made one of the nockovers myself a few months back, dont think ive even used it yet the cords are a bit of pain having to pull them up all the time though. theres a desighn that you can nock them down and hit them back up again. sounds a better idea but havent seen one so cant say what there like to make etc.

forgot to say, it allso had a reducer on it that was held in place by a wingnut. so there was a 40mm killzone and the reducer took it down to about 25. if you made a pigeon or duck one the reducer could be built so it looks like a wing??

Looks good, but i prefer to stick to tin cans and stuff when targeting!
