Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a target device that can resist multiple hits from different types of ammunitions, making it more durable and long-lasting than previous versions.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent is the need for an improved target apparatus that is more durable and can be used multiple times, as compared to traditional targets that are easily disintegrated or require frequent replacement. The new target should allow for the replacement of components rather than the entire target after each use, which would save time, money, and resources.

Abstract

A target apparatus comprises a plurality of cables and a rigid frame wherein each cable is attached to the rigid frame at least one end of the cable. The plurality of cables is attached to the frame in staggered orientation to one another, and each of the plurality of cables is interchangeable with any other cable of congruent dimension. The plurality of cables is attached to the frame in zigzag orientation to one another. The impact of bullets, mortars, and varying other ammunition rounds upon the plurality of cables is dampened in the loose hanging cables, thereby resulting in a less violent blow to the overall target apparatus. The target apparatus is capable of multiple uses before total destruction of the target apparatus.
