Bullet/pellet traps

Hmm,, a quarter inch thick metal... that is pretty substantial.

I checked and his price for 18" is $330 plus $100 shipping. And his 12" is $165 plus $40 shipping. And these are only bid, which means it will be much more. Isn't worth it imo to spend $400 plus on a trap. Make your own. I went to home depot. Bought a 1" 4"x3" 8ft long board for $3. Cut into small pieces and make a 9"x12" box. Put a steel 1/4" thick, 9"x12" plate behind..and you got yourself a powerful trap for under $20. The front part where you place your target and shoot is just a piece of cardboard wrap with duck tape. Plate is $16 free shipping on eBay.

Airgun-hobbyist - Good looking trap. Should last you a lifetime. 

filling a substantial cardboard box with dirt/sand works well, too. gotta clean it out and duct tape it regularly though...

Hey @shinyknight that is a awesome trap man I’m definitely gonna build this one man thanks a ton for that info!!!

For that price though you could build one for way less if you have a wielder and something to cut the metal with like a plasma cutter. Hell a grinder would even do the job. I know the metal supply co I go to has a good amount of precut stuff that would be ideal. Now where I do agree with the price is the time it took to make. Still a bit steep though.

I just finished one similar to the ones in the link and have $130 in the sheetmetal. This includes the metal, shearing and breaking the angles. I already had the schedule 40 3” pipe and the plate to cap the pipe. Also mine is made out of 14 gauge sheet metal, about .075” not 1/4 like the ones in the link.

Yeah, I'm with shiny knight, that much money for a pellet trap that's nuts.
