These went down if you pulled the trigger or not. Usually just as fast as they went up. I'm not sure how the system works in registering a hit, so I couldn't say if actually registered the hit or not.Paladin wrote: ↑Thu Apr 13, 2023 1:38 pmAt Camp Swift they seemed to be in good order, but some claimed they didn't always register a hit... could have been the shooter.clarionite wrote: ↑Thu Apr 13, 2023 10:07 am34 years ago at Ft Dix, the pop up targets didn't always catch when they popped up.

I'm better with a rifle than a pistol or grenade and I was only marksman in rifle and expert in the others. But the pop up targets are much more fun.
