Armadillo Short Range Rifle Target – Elite Close Quarters Steel System
Built for professionals, designed to endure. The Armadillo Short Range Rifle Target is our most rugged, purpose-built solution for close quarters rifle training. Perfect for law enforcement agencies, military training environments, and high-volume shooting ranges, this system delivers unmatched durability and performance.
Engineered for High-Impact Training
Made entirely from abrasion-resistant steel, the Armadillo eliminates the need for wood posts or replacement hardware. The included 12″x20″ AR550 target can safely withstand repeated hits from short-action rifles at distances as close as 50 yards under proper conditions.
⚠️ This target is for use by trained professionals only. Closer engagement distances should only be attempted under strict supervision and in accordance with department policies. Improper use can result in serious injury. Always contact us if you have questions about setup or use.
