    Texas Star! Made in Canada, shipping starts May 15!

    Full description and a teaser video on the website here

    Brand new, AR500 steel Texas Star. Reasonably priced at $1175 plus tax, free shipping within Canada, arrives almost fully assembled, and even comes with the pair of wrenches you need to finish setting it up!
    The Texas Star started shipping May 15; we're a little overwhelmed with initial orders, so expect orders to take a week or so to ship. We should be caught up, and have inventory in stock, by the end of May 2017.
    Thanks for your support, CGN; I really appreciate your business!

    I hate these targets... Damn pinch points, PIA to reset, and over way too quick.

    Don't these auto reset?
    Shoot the top ones and it rotates and resets at the bottom?
    Maybe not I am probably thinking of a different design

    Most Texas stars have knock off targets so that it spins. They need to be reassembled after the stage is shot.

    That's a cool idea, Sleeper!
    I built this to be USPSA compliant; I think the plate needs to fall off to score. Also, the spin is created by the change in center of gravity. Could do a motorized version, though... hmmmm.

    In defence of this particular Star, the usual pinch under the spring has been eliminated. There are comfy squeeze handles behind each 'wrist' that makes resetting a breeze. And if you find it too easy, I can ship it with two-inch paddles to keep it challenging for you!
