Target Stand System AR500 Steel Target Complete Kit - 3/8" Thick 7" x 12" Steel Hostage with 2x4 Stand Mount Kit

Great target. We shot it 100s of times with 9mn and 40cal this past Sat. It deflects bullets to the ground and is holding up great. Very happy with it 👍👍

I bought this for my fiance and he took it to a range with his buddies and they shot it with pistols, rifles, and a 12g Shotgun and it held up great! Super easy to assemble. All it needs is a 4ft-5ft 2x4 piece and you can go to home depot and have them cut it for you. 2 pieces is $3.25 so super cheap

It works great. Just used target ammo. Didn’t try anything crazy on it 22. 9mm 10mm 45acp 223 556 Even a 12 gauge slug was just fine

The silhouette hangs at a downward angle measured at 11 degrees. Put in a beveled washer to correct to 20. Assuming that matters to you. 20 degrees would be safer when firing upon this target at shorter distances. This AR500 steel had no divots after being hit with FMJ 9mm and 22lr at 25 yards. The orange plate swings back and forth adequately when struck. Some assembly is required. You will need a 4 ft long 2x4, or cut the wood to whatever height you choose. Will also need a drill in order to make 2 holes to mount the steel holder, and a set of wrenches or an adjustable wrench. 3/4 inch sized wrench needed to tighten the nut that fastens the large carriage bolt holding up the plate. Thankfully hardware was provided and nothing was missing. Kit comes with one Allen key. This kit is a bargain at half the price of similar sized AR 500 3/8 inch steel targets+ stands. Also know that these are not rimfire targets, so don't expect rimfire calibers like 22lr to hit with enough force to swing the orange circle gong, as this kit is not made with lighter steel found on rimfire targets.

Works and does what it’s intended to do. Stand is easy to assemble but requires something to really hold it down if your going to be leaving it up or on unstable ground. Couple chunks of block worked for me. Happened to have a can of rust oleum key lime paint that I noticed looked close. Ended up being a near perfect match for the factory color. Hostage target is a blast and I like the pressure of putting a round there as practice. It certainly works with 22lr but doesn’t reliably flip from side to side which is understandable as it’s really designed for larger rounds. Just wish they would have cut the round pieces that hold it on smoother. Looks like they are cut with a torch or plasma and are very rough which interferes with its moving. Already bought a 1/2 inch silhouette target to be able to switch targets and for the big rounds which is equally great.
