This kit is available with and without the our patent-pending Multi-Purpose Base (MPB) and you can also purchase this kit un-welded in our DIY Shooting Target section.

Our setup is designed to be used with 1.5″x.25″ angle iron. We sell all of our reactive targets without the angle iron. You can source it locally for $12-$15, or you can buy it separately in the Replacements and Add on section of this site. It’s a more expensive option simply due to the shipping cost. Remember, we want to make this target kit affordable for all budgets. If possible we recommend you source it locally.
