The Front Attach T-Post Target Mount is designed to interface with our Armored AR500 T-Post. This bracket utilizes the holes that are positioned up the spine of the Armored T-Post. In other words, you can mount multiple target plates on the AR500 Armored T-Post by utilizing this bracket. The Target Mount location has two triangle gussets for increased strength. We took the DNA of our Heavy Duty T-Post Bracket and poured it into this proven design. This bracket functions with ANY of our Genesis Steel Gong Targets. Note: Exodus AR550 Target Plates will NOT interface with this bracket.

Manufactured from 1/4″ Thick steel, welded proper, and finished off with our Grey Beige (Tan) Powder coat. Includes all necessary hardware.

Front Attach T-Post Target Mount

You are looking at a unique twist to our Heavy Duty T-Post Target Mount. Welcome to the front attach T-Post Target Mount This is a beefed up version of our regular T-Post Gong Mount. The Bracket features several notable differences. First, there are gussets (triangles) that add strength to the bracket. The entire bracket is manufactured from 1/4″ Thick steel, an upgrade over the standard T-Post Mount. Our objective in building this bracket was to offer more strength and more performance from a T-Post mount. Customers requested a bracket that could even stand up against larger, wild cat cartridges. So we got to work developing this bracket for that use-case. Whether you are plinking with your 22’s, or launching missiles with your 300 PRC, this bracket is designed to stay put, stay planted, and perform flawlessly.

Oh, we almost forgot: This bracket is specifically designed to interface with our Armored T-Posts. The Armored T-Post features groups of holes going up the spine. This bracket can be mounted at various heights in tandem with our Heavy Duty T-Post mount. In essence, you can have a multi-target array by integrating this mount with our Armored T-Post AND our Heavy Duty T-Post Target Mount.

Included With Each Front Mount T-Post Target Mount:

With each Tee Post Gong Mount we include the following components:

  • (One) Welded T-Post Assemble with (2) Holes that are tapped 3/8″-16 for thumb screws, one 9/16″ Hole for 1/2″ Clevis Pin
  • (One) Yellow Zinc Grade 8 carriage bolt
  • (One) Custom Compression Spring
  • (One) Locking Nut
  • (Two) 3/8″ X 1″ Thumb Screws (to tighten to Tee Post)
  • (Two) 1/2″ X 1 1/2″ Clevis Pins with hairpin clips

Strength and versatility

The heavy duty design of this T-Post Target Mount means it’s built for hard use. Larger calibers, higher volumes, and longer lifespan. This bracket “grips” more onto the T-Post than our standard bracket, and it features added functionality for use with our Armored T-Posts. Additionally, users can install the included 1/2″ Clevis pins and clips (when using our Armored T-Post) for added strength. Further, this is important for higher volume ranges shooting larger calibers and cartridges. For added stability we have included thumb screws on the sides to tighten down onto your T-Post.

Compatibility

The Front Attach T-Post Target Mount is built specifically for our Armored T-Post. This mount will NOT work with off-the-shelf T-posts. If you are looking for a standard T-Post bracket, see our Genesis T-Post Bracket OR our Heavy Duty T-Post Target Mount.

Installation

Tools are not necessary for installation. Simply use the included hardware to mount your T-Post. However, you will need a 3/4″ Socket and Ratchet to install our Genesis AR500 Target Plates to this bracket.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Answer: This bracket is unique as it provides a way to “middle” or “front” mount targets onto our AR500 Armored T-Posts. If you are looking to add even more excitement to your range, consider our AR500 Armored T-Post, our Heavy Duty T-Post Bracket, and our Front Mount T-Post Brackets. Maximum fun, maximum training value.

Answer: The only option that works with this mount is our AR500 Armored T-Post. This bracket will NOT work with off-the-shelf T-Posts.

Answer: Yes. You will slide the Clevis Pins through the bracket AND the Armored T-Post. Then install the clips to keep the clevis pins in place. Next, simply hand tighten the thumb screws to fully lock this bracket onto our Armored T-Posts.

Answer: No, the sides are not armored. This means if you shoot at a harsh angle and impact the bracket, there will be damage. We cannot make the sides out of AR500 or AR550 as that would make it unfeasible to tap the holes. The tapped holes are a critical component of the system. Always engage the systems “head on” to avoid stray impacts of brackets and posts.

Answer: Yes, this bracket is designed in such a way to force the target plate to have a forward lean. Additionally, the target moves when struck, resulting in safe fragmentation dissipation and also less wear and tear on the plates.

Answer: Partially, yes. The top plates are made from a premium 1/4″ Swedish AR500 steel. This material will resist wear and tear from fragmentation and glancing blows. Additionally, this will reduced the wear and tear the bracket will receive when shooting at targets at the top of the Armored T-Post. The sides that lock onto the T-Post are NOT armored. Impacts to the sides can cause damage, so be sure you are always squared off (perpendicular) to your target while shooting. Building the bracket this way does slightly increase the cost to produce, but it guarantees a longer lifespan and less maintenance for you.


Maybe. Just in case, be sure not to eat the paint or lick the target before or after you’ve shot it. If you are just curious, led tastes horrible and will probably cause mental damage. If you have done it once you are likely to do it again. Handle at your own risk, if you choose, you may wear an industry grade hazmat suit and gas mask with a HEPA filter and good luck charm on your wrist.
