It's a Trap! 028: Mossberg Targo Hand Trap
Season Three of It's a Trap was filmed in the summer of 2021. The new range was freshly dug, the sun was bright, and we never found a single cloud nor a hint of a breeze. Kevin arrived with a "cold" which turned out to be our invitation to join the ranks of the 'rona infected right after.
A great deal of footage was lost to corrupted data, another victim of the heat. In the end we decided that we would refilm the whole thing, however, in the past few years the opportunity has never come.
So, while Primer is being reworked into its new studio and theme, please enjoy what we could cobble together from the lost season of It's a Trap.

I'm thinking taking measurements of those rare Mossberg Targo targets so that people can 3DP their own molds and press their own out of ? [corn meal & egg whites, baked to set?] might be a neat gift to the community.
That looked like fun. Crazy kind of adaptor for a weapon but a certain logic to it
that Targo is super cool. I think I'm going to compete with Kevin for a complete set.
We shot these at Boy Scout Camp circa 1965, They charged 10 cents a shot so nobody shot enough to learn to hit any. We called them Mo-skeets and they were Mossberg single shot guns. I think the ammo is No.12 shot. I've shot a lot of this ammo through rifled barrels and that really shortens the range- to like 10 feet.
as a small child...I had an aunt...who had a house...that we played baseball in the living room. Perhaps the shotshell could have worked...lots of wood in that house...or maybe not.
Short on follow-through guys!!
Cool setup for short range, low/no recoil wing shooting! Nice way to practice!
