So a friend of mine was remodeling my bathroom and after some difficult stages at rifles only and score high I knew I needed some more practice with barricade shooting so i asked him to build me some and this is what I got. He did a fantastic I asked for some simple designs and he went all out with carpet in the ports rolled edged corners removable legs for transport. Even the custom paint and him not being a shooter got pretty carried away and filled the center with foam for noise reduction I guess lol any how he just did such a great job i Just thought I would share some pics of my new practice barricades....

Awesome man. Looks great.

What about padding on the holes? Will that be realistic to you and be different than shooting from a hard one?
 
Should be good practice! I need to build another barricade that fits in the back of my truck.
 
Dude, that barricade is frikkin' sick. Are you telling me there is foam sandwiched between layers of fiber board, all screwed together, with wood mini beams inside the ports for the carpet?

From now on, every match you go to, you'll look down on the particle board barricades and think of yours back home. You are now officially the barricade snob, by no fault of your own. If that's how he makes a barricade, I'm really curious as to what his bathroom work looks like. Dude is a pro craftsman for sure.
 
Really nice! Several grades above my particle board garbage. I thought about building a small trailer with different scenarios on it to pull to my shooting locations. They are all private farms, so I could just back up and start shooting.
