Default Target Stand

Anyone have a better idea than this for a target stand to take to the range?

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if...
The Supreme Court of the United States can rule that lower

The outdoor range I use has pistol bays with tall sand berms on three sides.. I just use a rectangular wooden frame with long legs that I push down into the berm. I staple cardboard onto the frame, and use some of those peel-n-stick orange target dots. It's bigger than your linked target, so I can place 4 dots on it and that way I don't have replace the cardboard as often.

If that is PVC pipe, you won't have it long, and the lumber looks light,
too. Get yourself a steel target stand, maybe from Brownell's.

Ahh, I remember the days we whittled "Ol Stumpy" down from a 4' tall
stump to, well, nothing. Now, where he "sat," there's a drain field.

resting plase

It will probably work but you might want to fill the base tubes with
sand or concrete to keep it from being blown over on windy days. If
you have a permanent site, the best strategy is to sink a pair of 3
inch PVC pipes into the ground with a post hole digger.

Why are you so concerned about imprinting governmental institutions
with Judeo-Christian symbolism? If you were a Hindu, Bhudist,
Muslim, Native American or whatever, would you feel that your chances
for a fair trial were improved?

Yeah, I was planning to use 2" pipe and fill with sand or a mortar mix. I want something I can take
apart and put in a 'range bag'.

I'd be using it at the Quantico range, so can't dig any holes.
