    Great. I like them a lot.

    So, tell us about them.

    How were they made?

    What had to be taken into account?

    What individual steps were necessary?

    Do you have pictures of the making?

    Hello 2erlei,

    No unfortunately I did not make photos of the different steps, but I can explain them and put in photos the tools I used.

    I wanted to share the photos on your forum because I saw videos of the SunsetSam group, which shoot with air guns in the same spirit as the cowboy action shooting. I think it’s an advantage to be able to have fun even at home shooting different targets, cans, metal targets, in the farwest spirit.

    I must also admit that I would like to make the trip to Germany to go to the farwest western park that I could also see in videos.

    I am fortunate to have a sister-in-law who speaks German, which is why I think the excursion should be possible.

    In short, I’m a fan of Colt SAA 4"3/4, that’s what explains my approach. Well I will also take the time to use the German French translator. I had studied the German language when I was younger, but I never practiced and I forgot a lot.

    I'm shooting too with the Walther Rotex Rm8, I'like it and "Deutsch Qualität". Really, Deutsch Qualität, my tools too, Stabila Wasserwagen, Picard Hammer, Knipex and a lot, Atika für betonmischer, Layher scaffolding (I'm bricklayer...)

    The target is homemade too, I used a plywood formwork that is black, I cut it into a known target shape, and I inserted a metal plate on my pencil trace that can be seen in the photo.

    My future target project is an Indian horse, his figure.
