Field Stand for Rifles
« on: June 13, 2010, 09:54:14 PM »
Needed a stand to hold my rifles while paper shooting. Used some scrap 1/2" square and round stock I had in the forge. Also made an open eyelet to hold my range rod. All I need to add is a piece of scrap carpet with a couple of half inch holes and it will be ready for use.
Thanks for looking,
Mike

Dr T, no cement where I shoot. Have to drive my target holder in the ground also.
Thanks for the compliments.

I've seen a couple of variations of these and this is a good one!  Very nice indeed.

No cement where I shoot either!

Look under "shooting accessories".  Some plans there that would work for cement ranges.
