BACKGROUND: The bullet trap at Range 70 has absorbed 3.8 million rounds of varying calibers. Over time, this number of impacts has caused the bullet trap plates to warp causing a build-up of lead. This has resulted in a degradation of TCT functionality that could lead to ricochets towards the shooter.

The TCT is a proprietary item is manufactured and distributed by Action Target. The firm has no authorized distributers or 3rd party resellers. The required replacements will involve decoupling existing components from the rest of the system so that the top and bottom plates and TCT mouth may be replaced. Currently no vendors, other than Action Target, are certified or capable to make modification to the TCT.
