KNINE OUTDOORS Target Stand System 12x20 inch AR500 Steel Hostage Reactive Shooting Target 3/8" Thick with 2x4 Target Stand Kit (12x20 inch and 3/8" Thick Target Stand System)

Steel target for $130 can’t beat that. This thing earned its place on my range. Took everything I shot at it, from a 22LR pistol, up to the 500Magnum at 15 yards. Barely any deforming/chipping on the steel. And the swinging paddle held up just as well. The base has some room for improvement, I added rotors to up the weight of the base. Never fell over after that

Works good for home use, we have shot it hundreds of times. Holds up pretty well!

Updated - sounds like my swinger target was defective. Customer support did eventually respond to my email and refunded the purchase and is investigating what was wrong with my swinger. They've been good to work with, although it took a little bit of back and forth to explain the problem well. Damaged from 556 at 100 yards - worked well for pistol and rimfire, but I took it out to distance and was using 556 and got a lot of problems. Large craters to the edge of the swinger, and small craters on the face. Can't get customer support to answer after a week if trying. I'll update my review if anything changes. Really a shame, every thing else was great, good mounting hardware, steel seemed great, swinging target worked well, just didn't hold up. I had planned to buy several more but won't now. This was just with regular 556 fmj, not steel core/green tip ammo. Design, size, and ease of use was great. Build quality and durability was terrible.

Quality product. Shot it 10 yards with 9mm & 45. Ricochet will damage the stand, so I put a piece of 2x6 lumber board to cover it. It was shredded after about 600 rounds session. It holds up to 5.56 at 60 yards, just don't shoot the bold head. I did, it sheared it off and the target fell of the stand. Thanks for the extra one. I think hardware stores will have similar bolt size for replacement. No dents from 5.56 at 60 yard distance. Easy to assemble and disassemble. Will buy again and would recommend.

Absolutely love the KNINE OUTDOORS Target Stand System! The 12x20 inch AR500 steel plate is tough as nails and holds up to repeated hits without a dent. The hostage-style reactive paddle adds a fun challenge and instant feedback, making it perfect for improving precision and speed. Setup was quick and easy, and the stand is rock-solid once in place—no wobble or tipping. I’ve used it with both rifle and pistol, and it performs flawlessly every time. If you’re serious about training or just love shooting steel, this system is a must-have. Highly recommended!

This 12x20 target stand is the perfect size and very much worth the money I have 3 total now. I go shooting every other month with my brothers and a friend or two and we mainly shoot 9mm at these but have also given it a try with .223/5.56 and it holds up just fine. Only thing you might have to eventually replace is the bolt that is dead center on the torso holding it in place. After the 7th or 8th time it finally broke off and that is the only downside apart from the 2x4 that has to hold it up but for the price you can’t beat it, just know you will have to replace the wood eventually and keep a couple of bolts on hand. (It comes with two)

The bolts and parts can be easily broken after a few AR rounds. The metal target or bolt holding the target can be stuck. I would rather get something more expensive metal targets

The base & target mount are pretty easy to figure out & use. The target is great, and having the small hostage target is really helpful because it's a lot more pressure to hit that than it is to paint or draw a 4" circle in the middle of the larger target. After the first use, it was impossible not to notice the deflection scarring on the stand- I had at least 20 small dents in the lower frame area. The main issue here, is that it will effect the stand's ability to slide in & out for storage. So I made a couple of 1/2" wooden cutouts that I lay over the stand, and then put a couple of steel plates to not only keep the wood in place, but the extra ballast helps on windy days, or if you put your target up at 6'. At 5' or under, it wasn't very necessary, but that extra foot can get a little unstable on soft or uneven ground. I'd buy it again.
