ABSTRACT:
A target support structure and system which accommodates the use of various target adapters, including a reactive steel plate, a plastic target holder, and a 1.times.2 lumber holder. The system provides for quick and simple changing of target types and allows for the convenient adjustment of the desired angle for any target which is used. When the target 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 designed to minimize bullet splatter.
