asmurff Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Who does dry-fire drills? And what to you use as back stop just in case you screwed up and left a live round in a weapon. I go to extremes to make sure I don't goof! Double and triple check, have someone else check, leave all live ammo left in a different room. Still I'd like something as a back stop. Has anyone built one by layering different materials without spending a fortue to stop a round. Or know where plans for one are at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmike Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Are you talking .22lr or non-magnum pistol calibers? If yes, you can make a backstop from 4x4's. That is what I use as a safety backstop when chambering rounds in my carry guns. I used 4 pieces 18" long, glued & clamped, then ran a piece of threaded rod thru both ends to hold it together.

bgc Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Place I worked for many moons ago had a corrugated box bundler. I took one of the bales for a back stop, works well, and is quite heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Sorry caliber up to .45acp, which is the one I train with most, followed by my .308. these are the two calibers I carry concealed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
