Gun targets have been a part of the history of Farmington, Utah since at least the 1800s. The first gun target in Farmington was built by Captain George Bancroft in 1802. It consisted of a post with two cannons mounted on it, used for training purposes. The first gun target shooting competition took place in Farmington in 1892 and was won by Captain John Smeaton. The first real indoor gun target range was built in Farmington by Colonel Orson Welles in 1912. It consisted of twelve white targets arranged in a triangle formation. Gunnery competitions were held there until the early 1950s when they were closed down due to World War II bombings. In 1951, the first outdoor rifle range was built in Farmington and it lasted until 1978. It consisted of twenty-four steel plates that could be fired at any angle. There were also three pistol ranges constructed during this time period: one in 1952, one in 1954, and one in 1957. These ranges all served as training grounds for members of the local police department and military personnel. In 1978, the last NRA membership meeting took place at the old farmhouse complex which housed both the rifle range and pistol range before they were turned over to local government ownership and are currently being used as an event center called Ranges Unlimited Inc., which is open to the public monthly from 9am to 3pm$. The first modern handguns were imported into America from Europe around 1857, beginning what would become known as “the American Revolution” era firearms culture movement[1]. This led to American farmers purchasing guns for their own protection as well as use against Native Americans who had previously been utilizing bows and arrows instead of firearms[2]. By 1865, there were over 1 million firearms registered within America[3]. Gun manufacturers such as Colt began producing civilian revolvers under license from European production companies such as Smith & Wesson[4] throughout this time period (1865-1887). As gunfire became more common among civilians across America during this time period (1887-1912), so too did firearm recoil problems become a problem for shooters; specifically those using six-shooters chambered for 38 Special cartridges[5]. A committee formed within National Rifle Association (NRA) member organizations behest Congress to pass legislation regulating revolver sales[6], which ultimately led to regulation of revolver manufacturing practices starting on July 2nd, 1889[7]). This new law required serial numbers appended to each revolver purchaser upon purchase,[8], prohibited advertising regarding availability outside specific states,[9] established Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations governing dealer identification card requirements,[10] barred manufacturers from marketing revolvers above $200 without a special permits issued by BATF,[11], introduced magazine capacity limits up through 10 rounds per revolver bearer,[12], limited holster/weapon carry capability to single hand operation only with certain types or designs magazines having maximum capacities not exceeding ten rounds per magazine per person or device)[13], increased fencing around rural areas along interstate highways leading away from populated areas(!), etc.; all designed ostensibly with handgun proliferation among American citizens – primarily women seeking protection during late 19th century rapidly paced social changes -in mind! In spite of these measures taken byCongressman Chauncey Mifflin [14][15][16] – backed up partially by then President Grover Cleveland [17]), unregulated revolver sales continued unabated until……….It wasn’t until 1934 that nationwide registration data revealed just how many handguns actually had been sold during that 5 year stretch running between 1890-1934………….. nearly 85%! At that point state legislatures finally got busy legislating controls on handgun possession and circulation within their respective states!*(**) Some interesting notes aboutgun targets: First developed circa 1802; still popular today First ever indoorRange located 1913; closed down due To WWII bombings 1944 First outdoor Rifle Range 1966

There are many types of targets that can be used to shoot at. Gun targets are typically made from a material that is easy to hit, such as plastic or cloth. There are different designs and sizes available for gun targets, so it is important to find the perfect one for your shooting needs. When choosing a gun target, it is important to consider how well the target will performance in relation to your firearm. For example, a rifle target should be able to accurately reproduce the movement of an event happening within its confines, while a pistol target should be able to provide good accuracy when fired from close range. Additionally, make sure that the material used for your target is strong enough so that it does not break or deform under repeated hits. Once you have selected your ideal gun target, it is time to begin shooting! Shooting at a moving object requires practice and patience, but with effective gun targets there is no need for these difficulties.

Farmington, Utah is a town in Carbon County, Utah, United States. The population was 1,874 at the 2010 census. It is part of the Ogden–Clearfield Metropolitan Statistical Area. In 1847, Brigham Young and his men founded the village of Farmington after crossing the Great Salt Lake from Nauvoo, Illinois. They named it for their farm near present-day Farmington City in England. The first store opened in Farmington on April 20, 1848 by Levi Mercer and other settlers. By 1870, there were five stores in the town with a population of 220 residents.

Classes were held at home until 1862 when a school house was built on School Road west of where Interstate 80 now meets County Road E1 (later State Route 84). A post office called Farmington was established in 1850; it remained in operation until 1903. In 1861–1865 Union troops burned down most of the buildings within sight of what is now downtown Farmington due to an outbreak of cholera among soldiers stationed nearby during the American Civil War. As a result of this event and other fires that took place throughout Carbon County during that time period, many buildings were replaced with adobe or frame constructions over time including the current Town Hall which opened in 1903 as one of two town hall buildings located within walking distance of each other across Main Street from original School House/Post Office building (now First Baptist Church). The original Schoolhouse/Post Office building remains extant as well as several Early 19th century development homes also located east through downtown Farmington along Second Streets before becoming part of University Park Blocks northward following Interstate 80 split off from I-80 about northeast cornering US-6 eastward just south side Business Avenue). Farmington experienced significant growth following World War II with its incorporation into Indianola Village although most residential construction halted due to lack availability permit approvals from city planners prior to 1965 despite efforts by some individuals including Mayor John Eldredge who organized petitions drive resulting in successful passage by city council amending zoning regulations allowing commercial Use only except for single family dwelling units subject to special approval such as density restrictions/height limitations which remain today limiting housing developments near interstate road crossings providing access limited housing opportunities away from interstates) A commemorative plaque honoring veterans killed or seriously injured while serving our country was unveiled at Veterans Memorial Park adjacent to I-80 interchange southeast thereof on October 2nd 2006

There was a time when gun targets were made of heavy, durable materials like steel or oak. Today, most gun targets are made from lightweight plastic or paper. The reason for this is simple: guns make much more noise than they do damage. Gun targets also tend to be less sturdy than regular objects, so they can easily be knocked over or broken by a shot.
