Made up some 22LR Targets

[BJames]

I am on vacation up at the in-laws this week. Grandpa and I decided to take some scrap metal and make up some targets for the kids.

I saw this thread when I was looking for ideas:

Very nice job! That looks like a lot of fun right there.

[Teeko]

Nice!

[freedom_fighter]

Well done sir! I'm sure the kids will enjoy.

[Mr. Beretta]

Great looking targets.

You'd have to paint them white or orange however so I could see them.

Have fun!

[echoThreeOneSix]

nice targets. good job!

[xrMike]

Those look great. My only suggestion would be to move them farther away from the air conditioner though.

[Teeko]

Time for some paint!

[sando]

That's going to be fun! The kids will have a great time.
Heck, I'd have a great time and I'm...no kid.

Nice! If I could go out in my yard to shoot I'd love something like that. Lucky kids.

[fourtraxmc]

Very cool, kids will really dig them.

[BJames]

I think I won't paint them for a while. It depends if I can see them on my range. Unfortunately, my father-in-law doesn't have enough property to shoot on! I'll be taking these back home and using them at my range!

Nice comment on not shooting the air conditioner xrMike! I think shooting at the house in general would be considered a really bad idea!

I'll post some pics later after shooting at these a while and seeing how they hold up.

I thought a few of you might appreciate these pics. My father-in-law built a saloon out of an old barn on his property. We made the targets out of the workshop which is off the right side past the porch.

It's more of a lifestyle work in progress because it will never be finished, but it's pretty sweet as it is.



No saloon is complete without a bar:


He bought this great antique wood burning stove that keeps the place warm:


I found this old box of 22LR - who knew it would be worth hundreds of dollars one day? Haha He probably bought the box for a buck if that! Put a little iPhone filter on the photo:

That is a really cool Man Cave your Grampa has!! I'd like to have that same style before and after I retire. I'd put up a big screen somewhere, so I could see the Chargers Play.

It sure is! He collected all this old wood for years. It's built using almost all reclaimed wood of all kinds. Nice stuff.

The TV is next!
