A laser-based firearm and target training assembly that includes a handheld target structure of a material configured to generate a visually perceivable indicia when subjected to a laser light with a frequency range of 220-1060 nm and a handheld firearm assembly with a body having a barrel portion defining a muzzle, defining an internal laser housing channel, and including an upper surface. The assembly also includes a laser emission module disposed within the internal laser housing channel, with an emission aperture facing and aligned with the muzzle, and operably configured to emit a pulsed laser light emission of a frequency range of 220-1060 nm from the emission aperture when a user pulls a trigger thereon that causes an electronic controller to have the laser emission module emit the pulsed laser light emission therefrom to generate the visually perceivable indicia on the target structure.

Apparatuses, systems and methods for indicating whether a target has been impacted by a projectile are disclosed. Embodiments may include a microcontroller, an impact sensor, and an impact indicator. Apparatus may include an acoustic sensor and a miss indicator. Acoustic information or impact information may be received by the sensors and sent to the microcontroller unit. A determination may be made regarding whether the target has been impacted. An indication of a hit or a miss may be made by the impact indicator based on the determination. A light redirection element, which may include a light pipe, may direct light from the impact indicator around the edge of a target to a viewer.

An archery tuning system comprises an archery target facility. The archery target facility has a frame providing an interior perimeter. The archery target facility has an optical sensor facility connected to the frame. The optical sensor facility is adapted to create optical information based on distance measurements from the interior perimeter to an archery projectile present within the interior perimeter of the frame. The archery target facility has a target processor adapted to calculate at least two intersection points of the archery projectile within the interior perimeter of the frame. The at least two intersection points are based on the optical information. The archery target facility has a target transmitter adapted to transmit intersection point information to a receiver. The archery tuning system comprises the receiver. The receiver includes a receiver processor adapted to generate resulting information based on the intersection point information.

This present disclosure is directed to a movable target system intended for sports and activities. Two vertical support members are coupled with a target to create the system. The target is coupled to four component housings, located on the vertical support members, that contain an electric motor and processor that controls movement. Two target sensors are positioned in the system; one coupled to the target, and the other coupled to a vertical support member are used to detect movement through the target and between the two vertical support members. A database of positions loaded onto the processor that have corresponding decision weights for each position. The positions are selected by either the stationary randomizer function or the moving target randomizer function. Shooting statistics are recorded and used to update the target position database decision weights to challenge the user.
