Tannerite Shooting Target - Metal Art

Tannerite Shooting Target - Metal Art

How to have a bang with your target shooting.   This is an elephant cut out of AR plate.  There is a quarter size hole for a target bulls eye.  Behind the hole on the back side is a tub of Tannerite exploding target material.  When a bullet of 223 size or larger is placed in the target hole and the Tannerite is exploded, it is a real thrill.  Maybe not as much as a real hunt but very impressive.  The animal is mounted on springs to allow it to reposition itself after normal hits but you need to really anchor it down for the explosion to hold it in place.  I haven't marketed these but made it for personal use. 

It is a great way to GET A BANG OUT OF TARGET SHOOTING.

Navy Seabees

Navy Seabees

This young Seabee was given a boot filled with concrete.  Apparently the Seabees have a since of humor.  He needed a handle for the ceremonial boot.  Since he was stationed in South Texas, he chose the state of Texas with the Seabees logo attached to the state.  The logo is welded on from the back side of the state and the logo is ground down to a shinny finish.   A top coat of clear coat protects the finish.
