Description
The Portable Texas Star delivers dynamic training in a compact, highly portable package. Built from 3/8″ AR500 steel, it features five 8″ reactive paddles mounted on heavy-duty steel arms. A precision-machined hub with dual sealed bearings ensures smooth, consistent spinning with every impact, replicating the same performance as our full-size Texas Star in a smaller footprint.
Versatile Training Options
Designed for pistol, rifle, and rimfire shooting, the Portable Texas Star features an adjustable Quick-Tune spring system that lets you tailor plate release tension to your firearm’s caliber. Its modular design also supports several upgrades, including:
-
10-Target Adapter Kit: Adds five arms and five paddles for a full 10-target spinning challenge.
-
Rimfire Paddle Option: Lightweight 1/4″ AR400 paddles, ideal for rimfire calibers and reduced-power loads.
-
Cardboard Swinger Add-On: Adds movement and reactive training with cardboard silhouettes (2×4 and targets not included).
