Another rimfire target from junk......

Some years ago I put this popper target together from a junk windshield wiper arm assembly. Pulled it out today and add a spring mounted can in the middle.
Spring material is old Mig welder wire casing. Cost for build....just time! Range test tomorrow with the Henry 22 Pump Action with more quiet or CB ammo.

Pull out a bolt and it folds down for carry.

Beans great with smoked pork chops! It's about 70F right now and why is that Mustang still sittin' ? :D

I thought that still had the motor attached. You know for a challenge, low medium, high.
Just don't do this:

The problem with the Mustang is you parked it into the garage nose first. Had you backed it in like some pics we’ve seen in the past it would have been chomping at the bit (mustang you know) to get out into the sunshine. :D
