Setting up a Target Stand
If you've never used a target stand, don't worry. It is a simple matter to assemble a target to work with them.
What you'll need:
Target stands are typically used with standard 18" width USPSA/IPSC/IDPA/NRA D-1 cardboard targets. But paper "practice target" versions of them are readily available and are about half the cost. The cardboard targets are stapled directly to the furring strips. To use paper "practice targets", you first staple scrap corrugated cardboard from grocery store boxes between the furring strips, then staple or tape the paper target to the cardboard. This also allows you to mount any of the wide variety of other paper targets including bullseye targets.
