Voting sign target frames

[Ohio Rusty]

With the close of the polls, the voting signs are free for the taking. If you find the ones with the hard cardstock, not the flimsy plastic ones, the card type can be opened, turned inside out exposing the white card stock inside to tape your target to. They make excellent targets for sighting in your rifle. And they are free !!

I especially like shooting the blue ones.

The corrugated plastic ones are very durable.

That's what we use at our monthly shoots for paper targets, cut 3 foot 2x4, attach together at one end with 6" rope, drill a hole big enough for the wire 1foot back from the attached end 12 inches back centered on the 1& 1/2" edge splay them apart until you can insert the wire frames , works great!

Me too, but the sensitive S.O.Bs get all testy if you shoot them before the election

they're usually in front yards when I do it! I just don't understand why they're so upset!

I met a distant cousin at a funeral a few years ago who was running for political office. He complained that his campaign signs were disappearing, and he couldn't understand why. When he showed me a picture of his signs I started laughing. The design featured a large O in the middle of the sign that was made up of red, white and blue circles. I told him it didn't have anything to do with him because it was near the beginning of deer season and his signs made a perfect sighting in target. This was in Alabama after all!

I have saved and used old campaign signs. The corrugated plastic ones hold up well in the weather. And the price is right.

Yeah I get a certain happiness shooting particular ones.

The wire frames are a great source of mild steel for making many items as well.

Get them while you can. The Chinese steel will get expensive after the first of the year.
