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.

A toy gun and a toy gun assembly are provided. The toy gun includes a gun body; a first power supply, a first printed circuit board (PCB), an infrared emitter, a first infrared receiver, a first vibration motor, a trigger, a first display module and a first speaker are arranged in the gun body; the gun body has a gun body portion and a handle portion; the first vibration motor corresponds to the handle portion; and the first display module is exposed from an outer side of the gun body and is disposed towards the upper rear side in a displaying manner.

The present invention generally relates to an inflation device having a base with a top surface containing an aperture and a control device, a motor having a shaft mounted within the base and controlled by the control device, a propeller fixedly secured to the motor to produce an upward thrust, an inflation member secured to the base, circumscribing the aperture, and arranged for inflation by the upward thrust of the propeller, a plurality of wireless motion sensors spaced in the vicinity of the base to detect the presence of movement and to communicate with the control device to initiate inflation of the inflation member, and a random time generator to control random inflation of the inflation member. A method of using the inflation device is also provided in both a tactical training and a wildlife mitigation setting.

A laser targeting apparatus rests on a surface and moves, such as by vibrating, wobbling, or shaking, when struck by laser light of sufficient intensity. The apparatus is designed not to fall over, so a user does not have to move to the apparatus and pick it up after a strike. The apparatus has a body that includes a structure, which is preferably one or more printed circuit boards including light sensors, for detecting strikes of laser light, and a motor. When a strike of laser light is detected, power is provided to the motor, which vibrates and causes the apparatus to move.

Disclosed is a bullet target having a front bullet-resistant impact panel with at least one target aperture therein and a rear bullet-resistant impact panel having a portion aligned with the aperture such that a bullet passing through the aperture will strike the portion. The portion produces a first audible response upon impact of a bullet therewith and the first audible response is distinguishable from any other audible response produced by the front panel upon impact by another bullet. Also disclosed is a method of signifying impact of a bullet with one of the two target panels. A bullet projected through the aperture onto the second panel produces a first audible response and projecting another bullet onto the first panel produces a second audible response differing from said first audible response. A different score may be assigned to each of the first and second audible responses.

A modular target having a support pole and a head. The head is preferably removable. The head is configured for removable attachment of a target. The head has a rail onto which a sleeve of a target is attached. The rail is preferably cylindrical. The target is configured with a sleeve that slides over the rail. Preferably a shooting face extends from the sleeve. Further, the shooting face is configured such that a moment arm allows the shooting face to hang at a 5-20 degree angle from vertical, with the preferred angle being 10 degrees. In a preferred embodiment the modular target utilizes a removably head configured with a neck that attaches to a vertical support pole. The vertical support pole preferably has a slide hammer attached that allows for easier placement of the target in the ground. Preferably the support pole has a fin that serves to resist rotation of the support pole when the target is hit by a projectile fired by a firearm.

A remote ignition device includes an igniter element, a fuel/oxidizer element, and a smoke generating element. Each of the igniter element, the fuel/oxidizer element, and the smoke generating element is configured in a layered configuration such that impact of the igniter element causes ignition of the fuel/oxidizer element and further causes the smoke generating element to release a visible smoke. Shooting targets incorporating the remote ignition device and methods of making the remote ignition device are also described.
