I got mine today. I'm very pleased with the quality. They look like they'll hold up just fine. Definitely a lot heavier duty than my Crosman spinners.
My 4 sets are scheduled to arrive on Thursday along with an LED light bar I ordered for Betty Lou's ATV.A while back I gave a classic Daisy to the grandson of the owner of one of the ATV/RV parks we frequent. My original plan was to gift him one of these targets as well. However, on second thought, that is not such a good idea considering he is shooting BBs out of the gun. He only shoots under his parent's supervision but I still think he is too young to understand the dangers of ricochet with BBs.I am basing my decision on my own experience when I was that young. I would sneak off at any opportunity with my BB gun and I would be left to my own devises in safety... you could say that many of my adventures were below the line separating right and wrong...
I got mine yesterday. I can’t wait to set them up Saturday. I’ll likely dip the paddles in yellow paint tonight and save the stickers for paper targets. I’ll be setting them up to shoot at 20 & 30 meters maybe even 40 meters for my .22 pellet rifles.
I've had one of these for some time now along with a 6 paddle set that I made. I always used bright orange safety paint to repaint the paddles when needed. I'll be painting these the same way. I tried yellow but orange seemed to be more visible at night with lights on them.

I'm using the white zinc oxide and baby oil mix recommended for the bell target game we were all making this past winter. The dang stuff works amazingly well on all of my steel targets that I mixed up another bottle of it this past weekend.
