ABSTRACT:
The combat target of the invention, in contrast to the prior art drop or fall targets, is capable of automatically indicating a number of target hits occurring time wise in succession, without there being necessary, after each hit, manual resetting of the target. For this purpose, the target image is rigidly coupled for rotation at a power take-off shaft of a force or power storage means, the power take-off shaft being essentially vertically disposed when the target is in its erect position. The storage capacity of the force storage means is adequate for accomplishing a number of revolutions of the power take-off shaft. A stop or impact arrangement, in its engaged or effectual position, prevents rotation of the power take-off shaft as long as there is no target hit, but upon occurrence of a target hit is temporarily brought out of such engaged or effective position.
