It was a better product when it was still in the box.,

It's a great concept but executed very poorly. While didn't expect something spectacular, I did expect it to work somewhat. After opening the package a noticed a part rattling around inside which made me suspicious. I put the batteries in and my suspicions were confirmed...it didn't do anything. I removed the screws holding it together and found the motor rattling around. I placed it back where it belonged and soldered a couple broken wires and it was working. Ten rounds from my airsoft pistol and it was broken again. One of the targets broke in half and the other broke off its post. Not to mention the bbs flying all over the house if you hit the target. If you miss (which I'm sure we're all trying to do) the netting catches them...some of them. I was using .12g bbs and the pistol does not shoot over 320fps. Needless to say this product quickly found itself in the garbage. Bottom line: Don't buy this unless you have money to throw away.

I bought this seeing it was the lowest costing thing, and I got what I paid for. The reset motor was acting funky when i first took it out of the package, the 3rd target was having trouble flipping up. Thankfully i found the problem was the motor got loose, so i just tightened it up and the problem stopped. The targets sometimes have trouble going down if you use anything under 200 FPS, and it's impossible to knock it down with anything below 150. I accidentally broke one of the targets just earlier today while shooting it with my 480 FPS airsoft rifle, so take note at it only being adequate with 320 FPS airsoft guns and lower. This is a good gift idea for a child who's starting airsoft, and are trigger happy. Also, the netting won't always catch the bbs. I found some phantom bbs able to slip between the small holes behind the targets. It is uncommon, though. In general, it probably will come damage, but it just needs to be fixed up a little and then you're good to go. As...Read more

This target system was by far the worst targeting system ever since the motor broke on the day I received it and the targets locked
