Title: Cheap silhouettes
Post by: GungaDin on February 01, 2012, 06:45:32 PM
Does anyone know where I can order CHEAP free standing silhouettes for air guns? Pref pistol but I'll take anything at this point. The only ones I've been able to find are made by gamo for around $18.00 but they have a hole in the middle of them which I don't much care for as I want to knock them down, not have the pellet pass through it. Beeman used to make a cheap set for around $9.00 but I see they have discontinued it. FYI all guns shooting at them will be under 700fps, alloy metal is OK.

 :-* saw some on e-bay within the last week.  Not real cheap. But they are hard to find. This would be the set chickens,hogs, turkeys, and rams

You probably won't find "Cheap" except for zinc-alloy that will break even with 500 fps guns

Crosman never made silhouettes for that kinda price.   Any local with a scroll saw, or even a scrolling jigsaw, can cut out a bunch of shapes out of a single piece of 1"x6" pine for cheap.  Even 3/4" plywood will work. Mount them on little squares (mount them cross ways so the base is a Diamond rather than square to the target, helps them from being blown over), made out of the same board.  Cheap and no rebound issues.

You could make them yourself .Get a piece of 1/8 steel from Lowes or Homedepot,and cut them out with a metal cutting blade and a jigsaw.

As soon as I read that I pictured my finger laying on the ground. I don't have that particular skill set.
