A few months ago we posted a review on the P3 Ultimate Target Stand from CTK Precision. Since that review was done by another ArmsVault Reviewer (Craig), I wanted to get my two cents in as well.
The P3 Ultimate Target Stand ships from CTK Precision with everything you need, except for the wood furring strips. I picked those up at Home Depot for approx $2. They’ll even cut them to whatever size you prefer. I elected to have the two uprights cut at 4′ and the base 3′. This will pretty much accommodate any size of paper target that you encounter.
Once you have the furring strips, the target stand assembles in under a minute. For those of us that have to take our target stands to and from the shooting range, this makes things extremely convenient.
Of course, the most important aspect of the target stand (in my humble opinion) is its stability. In the 6+ months that I have been using this stand, it has been nothing but rock solid, regardless of the size of targets I use.
P3 Ultimate Target Stand Specs & Features:
- Innovative clamping plates apply pressure to the furring strips over a large area, providing a firm grip and hold on the furring strips (not provided).
- The 24″ angled legs provide a stable 4 point stance allowing the stand to be set up on uneven terrain.
- The legs can be pushed into the ground to stabilize the stand without the need for a set of stakes.
- The height of the main beam provides 3.5″ of clearance for uneven terrain, and is high enough to make use of sandbags as ballast if the ground is too hard to push the legs into.
- Width easily adjusts. With a minimum width of 5″, it can handle just about any paper or cardboard target, from standard copy paper and up. And, there is no need for a target backer.
- Sets up and breaks down in seconds. With large, easy to use knobs, there is no need for any tools. All you have to do is provide the furring strips.
- Robust construction. Made from 14 gauge tubing and 3/8″ rod, it is a durable unit and has an equally durable E-coat finish.
- Made in the USA.
- Parts Included:
- 2 Target Stand Support Legs
- 2 Target Stand Support Braces
- 4 Knobs
- 4 Large Paper Target Clips
Without a doubt, I would recommend the P3 Ultimate Target Stand to anyone that spends time at the range! It is a high quality product that is manufactured in the USA by a company that takes some serious pride in their work.
