ABSTRACT:
A target support structure and system which holds a steel plate target centered in a protective shroud. When the plate is hit, it falls over backwards, activating an internal position sensor. Then, when an internal reset mechanism is engaged, the plate is lifted back to the upright position. The system is easily mounted for permanent or portable use, may be activated through pneumatics or any adaptable power source, may be interfaced with electric, pneumatic, or similar control devices, may be used as a trigger device to activate other devices upon being hit, and is uniquely designed to minimize bullet splatter (fragments) and damage to surrounding fixtures, objects or people.
