ABSTRACT:
A mechanism is disclosed for presenting a multiplicity of targets to a shooter in a firing range. The mechanism has a plurality of generally planar targets, each attached to a crank arm which, in turn, is attached to an actuating device. The device has an extendable and retractable ram which causes the crank arm to pivot during extension or retraction such that the target is moved between a lowered position, in which it is not visible to the shooter, to a raised position in which the target is visible to the shooter. The mechanism includes a remote control device to actuate one or more of the targets to minimize the presence of any personnel in a downrange position.
