Just now opened a box from Paul Porch of Paul’s Custom Targets and all I can is WOW!
The three different styles of targets were oh so carefully boxed in expanded foam and foam peanuts. Why is this important you might ask? The face plates are painstakingly painted (Look at the detail!) and no one wants to have them scratched up before getting to show them off to their shooting buddies.
The three targets I received one is a traditional AAFTA style target painted hoot owl made from a very heavy gage steel. This ain’t your run of the mill Gamo rat on the run target! I put it on my scales and at four pounds, that’s about another full pound of steel.
Something I noticed right away is, there are no bolts or pop rivets protruding from the front. It’s all TIG welded. Also, this particular target has the lever arm for the reset line off to the side and about four inches in length. You won’t throw your shoulder out resetting this baby.
Next target I took out of the box is his NEW self resetting with a squirrel faceplate. The faceplate is a smaller version of his traditional squirrel FT targets but it doesn’t need to be big. Out of the box it’s ready to shoot for guns producing 14-25 FPE and are adjustable with a wrench if you feel the need. They will work on 12 FPE but is distance dependent. If you’re shooting WFTF, just be sure to ask for the 12FPE model at no extra charge.
This little guy is so cute I’m going to regret shooting him for sure.
And last but not least, his new “Post” spinner. The beauty of this compact little flower is, you can attach it to a fence post or tree (or other suitable type of mounting surface) and get it off the ground out of the grass. You can mount it horizontal or vertical to suit your shooting needs. And it’s small enough you could mount several around your shooting range with a couple of drywall screws and practice different size KZ’s at different distances and not have to get up and move a target device.
