Abstract:
The present invention relates to a target stand that is modular, configurable, lightweight, and portable. Preferred embodiments have adjustable configurations to enable the target stand to be utilized for different types of gun targets, including rifle and pistol. The target stand disclosed has a base assembly and a cap member preferably constructed of metal. The base assembly includes two support pieces and three transverse pieces that are connected using cut out grooves within the pieces. Multiple types and sizes of target supports can be connected to the base assembly, such as wooden connector posts. Multiple target support sections can be welded to the transverse pieces. The target supports can be secured to the base assembly and cap member using fasteners.

Claim (Index 5):
A portable target stand, comprising:\n a) a base assembly comprising:\n 1) a first support piece and a second support piece, each support piece being between 35 and 37 inches long and between 3 inches and 4 inches high, each support piece further having four grooves between \u00bc inch and \u00bd inch wide and between 1\u00bd and 2\u00bd inches deep, and each support piece further having five circular holes between 1 and 2 inches in diameter; and \n 2) a first transverse piece, a second transverse piece, and a third transverse piece, wherein each transverse piece is between 27 and 29 inches long, each transverse piece further having at least two grooves between \u00bc inch and \u00bd inch wide and between 1\u00bd and 2 IA inches deep, and each transverse piece further having two circular holes between 1\u00bd and 2\u00bd inches in diameter; \n b) wherein the first transverse piece has a first target support section, a second target support section, and a third target support section welded to one side and further has an additional three grooves between \u00bc inch and \u00bd inch wide and between 1\u00bd and 2\u00bd inches deep; c) wherein the three target support sections are rectangular shaped with hollow openings between 1\u00bd and 2 inches long, and \u00bd and 1 inch wide; d) wherein the second and third transverse pieces are welded to connector post support section, and wherein the connector post support section is rectangular shaped with a hollow opening between 3 and 4 inches wide, and 4\u00bd and 5\u00bd inches long; e) wherein the connector post support section is further welded to a primary support section, wherein the primary support section has a fastener and nut to secure the primary support section to a connector post; f) wherein the connector post support section is further welded to two secondary support sections, wherein each secondary support section provides additional support to the connector post; g) wherein the engagement features of each transverse piece are securable to the engagement features of the first and second support pieces to secure each transverse piece to the first and second support pieces; and h) a cap member having comprising:\n 1) a target mount, an intermediate connector, a target mount fastener, a spring, a washer, and a nut; \n 2) wherein the target mount is securable to the intermediate connector using the target mount fastener, the spring, the washer, and the nut; and \n 3) wherein the intermediate connector has fifteen circular holes and an intermediate fastener, and wherein the intermediate connector is securable to the connector post using the intermediate fastener.
