Barricades
Spent today building two plywood barricades. They are the stair step design.
The panels were easy to cut out, now just have to figure out the bases
Not sure weather I want to install the base to the barricade, or make it removable so that it's a bit lighter weight to move around, & if I make a removable base, I could use it upright, & sideways. I like the idea of a removable base, it will take a bit more engineering, but worth it in the long run.
The project has been on a back burner for a while, but recently another Instructor ask if I could use 6 sheets of 1/2 plywood, otherwise he was going to throw it away, so all I had to do was add the 2x4's
This one is 6 feet on the tall side, which is a bit to high for most shooters, but when laid on it's side it 4 ft.
But it gives you an idea, now just need to get some paint & a few other details....
These were built for range training, & not bad I figure final cost since plywood was donated to be less than $30 for both.
Armour plate would work better than plywood. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteWell for training, & learning how to shoot around cover, think they will do just fine
