Description

TALL ARMORED BASE

Standing at 40” tall, this target base will raise your target to a more natural shooting position to promote muscle memory for close quarters training. This base has an armored center post to withstand thousands of rifle and handgun rounds.

All of our modular base systems are designed for easy setup and transport.  Just two pieces, (the upright portion and the H-style base) assemble together in seconds, and lay flat when disassembled.  Our modular target bracket has two available slots and is designed to accommodate any of our reactive or plate targets, along with an accessory rack for gongs, spinners, and other accessories.

If you are looking for a more permanent solution, simply remove the “H” base and pound the upright into the ground or pour concrete.

35lbs, 40″ tall, 3/8″ bracket for 3/8″ thick standard targets and accessories.

MODULAR BASES

The secret to a good target is an excellent base (yeah, we trademarked that).  We recommend one of our modular armored bases for greatest ease of use, sturdiness, and reliability.  Our uprights pull right out of our H-bases allowing you to lay them flat in your truck, case, or bag and put them back together in seconds without tools.

Want a more permanent option? Pound the upright right into the ground or lay it in with some concrete.  The AR500 plating will protect your armored target base, deflecting thousands of pistol and rifle rounds (seriously, you’ll be handing this thing down to your grandkids).

Want to shave off weight and save time?  Check out our Quick Deploy Base System specific to our QD compatible targets.  Two AR500 QD plates with integrated carrying handles and the ability to accommodate 1″ pipe extension legs to raise this target as high as you need. The pyramid-style base is designed to become more stable the taller you get.

And finally, while we always recommend splurging that little extra for one of our virtually indestructible armored bases, we do offer a “budget friendly” 2×4 base kit for the DIY backyard shooter.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Tall Armored Base enhance close quarters training?

The Tall Armored Base is designed to elevate targets to a more natural shooting height, promoting effective muscle memory during close quarters training. Standing at 40 inches tall, it simulates real-world scenarios where targets are at eye level, helping shooters practice and refine their skills under conditions that mimic actual engagement distances. This is particularly beneficial for law enforcement and military personnel who often train for close encounters.

What makes the Tall Armored Base durable against rifle and handgun rounds?

The Tall Armored Base features an armored center post constructed from AR500 steel, known for its exceptional durability. This material is capable of withstanding thousands of impacts from both rifle and handgun rounds, ensuring the base remains intact and functional over prolonged use. The AR500 plating effectively deflects bullets, making it a reliable choice for both personal and commercial shooting ranges.

How easy is it to set up and transport the Tall Armored Base?

The Tall Armored Base is designed for quick assembly and disassembly, making it highly portable. It consists of just two main components—the upright portion and the H-style base—that can be assembled in seconds without tools. When disassembled, the components lay flat, allowing easy transport in a vehicle or storage in a compact space. This modularity is ideal for shooters who frequently move between different training locations.

Can the Tall Armored Base be used as a permanent installation?

Yes, the Tall Armored Base can be converted into a permanent installation by removing the H-style base and securing the upright into the ground or concrete. This flexibility allows users to choose between a temporary setup for mobility or a fixed installation for long-term use. When installed permanently, it offers enhanced stability and can be integrated into a more permanent range setup.

What types of targets and accessories can be used with the Tall Armored Base?

The modular target bracket on the Tall Armored Base is designed to accommodate a variety of reactive and plate targets. It includes slots for gongs, spinners, and other shooting accessories, allowing users to customize their training experience. This adaptability makes it suitable for diverse shooting disciplines, from tactical drills to recreational shooting.

How does the Tall Armored Base compare to the Quick Deploy Base System?

The Tall Armored Base and the Quick Deploy Base System both offer unique advantages depending on the user's needs. The Tall Armored Base is ideal for users seeking a robust, permanent setup with its armored construction and height. In contrast, the Quick Deploy Base System is designed for rapid setup and portability, featuring integrated carrying handles and compatibility with 1" pipe leg extensions for adjustable height. Both systems are built for durability, but the choice depends on whether mobility or a fixed position is prioritized.

What are the benefits of using AR500 steel in the Tall Armored Base?

AR500 steel is renowned for its hardness and ability to withstand high-impact forces, making it an ideal material for the Tall Armored Base. This steel grade provides excellent resistance to wear and tear from repeated shooting, ensuring the base's longevity. Its use in the center post and other critical areas of the base guarantees that it can endure extensive use without compromising structural integrity.

How does the modular design of the Tall Armored Base support different training setups?

The modular design of the Tall Armored Base allows for flexible training configurations. With its two available slots for targets and accessories, users can easily switch between different types of targets and training scenarios. This adaptability supports a wide range of shooting drills, from precision shooting to dynamic tactical exercises, without the need for multiple base systems.

What considerations should be taken when using the Tall Armored Base for commercial ranges?

For commercial ranges, the Tall Armored Base offers durability and flexibility that can handle high volumes of use. Its robust construction is suitable for frequent use and diverse shooting activities. However, range operators should ensure that the base is securely installed, especially if used in a permanent setup, and regularly inspect it for any signs of wear. The ability to withstand thousands of rounds makes it a cost-effective solution for commercial applications.

How does the Tall Armored Base integrate with other shooting equipment?

The Tall Armored Base is designed to seamlessly integrate with a variety of shooting equipment and accessories. Its compatibility with different target types and accessory racks allows users to customize their shooting range setup.
