The Ground Hog

The Ground Hog

When you need a quality MRT range without compromise and without the fuss of mobility, look no further than The Ground Hog.

Built in a single use (1-trip) container this 40’ range is the ideal size and price point for a gun shop looking to offer their customers the experience of trying out guns, or expanding their business to offer additional streams of revenue. Offer training classes, or paid range time for your customers, or use the range as a value-add by offering it up for used gun or post-gunsmith test firing. The Ground Hog is literally a plug-n-play container shooting range that will be ready to go as soon as it’s set up and plugged into a power source.

This modular shooting range is also suited for ammo and gun manufacturers as a test range, or individuals who want a professional shooting range in their own back yard or business location.

The Ground Hog uses a standard single phase 50-amp service (like a typical RV) and can easily be converted to a mobile shooting range at any time like The Road Runner by simply setting it up on a chassis trailer.

Offered with standard configuration as a 2-lane 7 yd pistol range, The Ground Hog can be upgraded to a rifle range and can even be lengthened by adding additional 40’ sections to achieve any desired length needed.

Turning Target Retrieval System with master control

(12" touchscreen) 3-levels white, red/blue strobes behind shooter and on target carrier. The master control can run Time Drills, Random Drills or Training Scenarios from this screen on the lanes selected. The CR2 platform control system is powered by an industry leader in industrial automation.

Robust and reliability are the 2 main features required in any control system. We believe we have this and stand by this with a 3-year warranty.

This industry is one of the harshest environments for any control system, in particularly the target control screen mounted in the stall or booth. Not only does the screen have to handle lead dust and airborne chemicals, but also more importantly the sound repercussion or sonic boom when a shot is fired. Commercially available hand-held devices like tables were not made for this and do not last long in this environment. Although tablet devices are usually cheaper than an industrial control screen, having to replace them a couple of times a year soon adds up.

The reliability of these devices is also an issue. Having to press a button 3 or 4 times on a cell phone or tablet may be acceptable for some applications, on a target control system it is not. Using an industrial screen with an industrial processor ensures every time a button is pressed the target will react.

Tablet device are, susceptible to updates. Some updates can affect and even wipe out 3rdparty software. This could prove very costly with lane down time and tech visits…
