How to Make a Swinging Target
With very little ingenuity you can make a swinging target that will give you a chance to practice not only sight-shooting but snap-shooting as well on a slow or a fast moving object, that is, if your range is out-of-doors and it is amply protected with a backstop.
To make a swinging target saw out a board of i-inch thick stuff, 12 inches square, and fasten a paper target to it with thumb tacks. Now hang the board from a convenient nail in front of the backstop so that it can swing freely by means of a piece of string, or what is better, by a strip of wood 1 inch thick and of whatever length you want it, and hinge the top of it to a support like the pendulum of a clock. It goes without saying that if you want a quick-swinging target the pendulum must be short and for a slow-swinging target the pendulum must be long.
