Sturdy structures designed to securely hold shooting targets, these devices come in various forms, from simple static frames to complex, automated systems presenting moving or reactive targets. A basic example might be a metal frame supporting a paper target, while more advanced versions might incorporate self-resetting mechanisms or simulate realistic scenarios.
These devices are integral for safe and effective firearms practice. They provide a stable platform for aiming, ensuring consistent accuracy measurement and promoting safe bullet containment. Historically, improvised supports were used, highlighting the evolution of shooting practice towards standardized equipment that prioritizes safety and precision. The modern emphasis on formalized training and competitions further underscores their importance.
