The Hang Fast Target System
- Tool-Free Setup: Forget the toolbox. This t post hanger slides directly onto any standard fence post. Once the target is mounted, gravity locks it securely in place—no slipping, even during rapid-fire sessions.
- Bulletproof Design: Our "hidden hardware" engineering ensures the hanger and bolts are shielded behind the AR500 plate, virtually eliminating damage from stray shots and saving you money on replacement parts.
- Superior Safety: The system is designed to hang at a downward angle, safely deflecting bullet splatter and fragmentation toward the ground.
- Reactive Longevity: The dynamic, energy-absorbing mount diverts impact force, significantly extending the life of your steel targets and reducing stress on the T-post.
The HEART of the system - the Hang Fast Hanger
Elevate the range experience with this heavy-duty Standard Hanger, the premier solution for securing heavy plates. Engineered for high-performance environments, this system is purpose-built to manage weights from 10 lbs to over 100 lbs effortlessly.
Key Benefits of the Standard Hanging System:
- Gravity-Lock Security: Utilizing a precision cross-shaped attachment point, the chain utilizes the plate's own weight to lock securely into place. This ensures a stable, reliable hold that stays positioned through heavy impacts.
- Unrestricted Reactive Movement: The specialized short chain configuration, secured by a high-strength Grade 8 carriage bolt, allows for optimal plate movement. This dynamic action allows for easier “reading” of target impacts for follow up shots.
- Enhanced Acoustic Feedback: The single-point attachment design is optimized for superior harmonics. By minimizing contact dampening, every impact produces a clear, resonant ring reminiscent of a bell, providing instant auditory confirmation even at long distances.
- Durability and Simplicity: Prioritizing user experience and rapid setup, this system combines rugged materials with an intuitive design. It is built to withstand heavy use while maintaining optimal performance.
Technical Specifications:
- Weight Capacity: 10 lbs – 100 lbs+

FAIL SAFE HANGER
The Fail Safe Hanger is specifically engineered to retain smaller, lighter plates under 10 lbs that other hangers can't handle. While heavy impacts often sends light targets flying, this system keeps your AR500 steel locked down and ready for action.
Maximum Security for Lightweight Targets
- Caliber-Proof Retention: Whether shooting magnum pistol or rifle rounds, the Fail Safe Hanger ensures your sub-10 lb plates won't jump off the hanger.
- The "Walking" Solution: Small plates are notorious for "walking" or bouncing down a post. Our included T-Post Clamp eliminates this, anchoring the hanger firmly so your target stays at the perfect height, shot after shot.
- Optimal Deflection: Even at lighter weights, the system maintains a 10-degree downward lean, ensuring safe, consistent splatter deflection every time you pull the trigger.
- Heavy large plates: Can be used with any large plate…. No problem.
- Plates with top mounting holes: Most plates (by others) have mounting holes located too high to be used with our Standard Hanger w/ Chain mount. The Fail Safe Hanger will handle these with ease.
Stop chasing your targets down the range. Get the Fail Safe Hanger and keep your small plates exactly where they belong.
STANDARD HANGER
- Maximum Reactivity (Chain Mount): Use the three-link chain for 360° movement and superior energy absorption. This setup creates the loudest bell-like ring and extends target life by dissipating impact force.
- High-Speed Stability (Bolt-Only): Mount directly with a Grade 8 carriage bolt to limit sway. This "limited-movement" configuration is perfect for rapid-fire drills and fast transitions, keeping the plate centered for follow-up shots.
- Gravity Lock: The cross-slot design uses target weight to lock everything securely without tools.
- Protected Hardware: In both setups, your bolts and hanger remain shielded behind the steel plate.
- Versatile Power: Rated for plates from 10 lbs to over 100 lbs.

- Rapid-Fire Stability: Swap the chain for a bolt-only mount to eliminate excessive side-to-side sway. This configuration is purpose-built for double-taps, handgun transitions, and rapid-fire exercises where a centered, stable plate is critical for speed.
- Customizable Deflection Angles: Take control of your safety. For AR500 steel targets 12” and larger, simply use a longer carriage bolt to increase the downward tilt up to 20 degrees. This aggressive angle ensures all bullet splatter is directed safely into the ground.
- Adaptable Performance: Switch between the high-energy reactivity of a chain mount and the controlled stability of a bolt mount to match your specific course of fire.
- Built to Last: Every setup maintains our "hidden hardware" advantage, keeping your mounting bolts shielded behind the steel and out of the line of fire.

TARGET ANGLE RE-DIRECTS IMPACT ENERGY
By adjusting the angle of the target plate, you can effectively decrease the impact energy when shooting rifles, allowing for closer engagement with the target. This reduction in distance not only minimizes potential damage but also enhances the deflection of bullet splatter downward, ensuring a safer shooting environment.
In our latest video demonstration, we showcase the impressive performance of our target system. We utilize a .308 caliber rifle with standard ammunition and engage the target from a distance of 15 yards. This close-range shooting scenario highlights the capabilities of our system, illustrating how the adjusted target angle contributes to reduced damage and improved splatter deflection.
Unlike other close-range rifle targets that rely on heavy brackets to force the target plate into the desired angle, our system features a single mounting point that greatly enhances plate harmonics. This unique design results in a distinct and resonant impact sound, making it easier to discern hits on the target plate.
Join us in the video as we demonstrate the advantages of our target system. Experience the benefits of reduced damage, enhanced splatter deflection, and improved target feedback through the amplified impact sound. Unlock the full potential of your shooting sessions with the Hang Fast target system, designed to deliver an immersive and rewarding shooting experience.
