Hey I'm looking to DIY a VTAC wall-does anyone know the setup?[M2]
The hell is this VTAC wall you speak of?
We used ours yesterday at the AK vs AR match. Although we added a port.Quote:

PM me your email address and I will send you the dimensions.
One of there. A fun vision barrier. Lots of canted shooting and roll-over prone. Not easy to shoot fast. http://www.ar-15.co/forums/showthread.php?t=65125Quote:

I tried the 3/4" and it was fine, but 1" was more stable.Quote:

The local yard has 1 1/8" (no 1") available for $41/sheet. Assuming we get two per sheet, materials are $20.50 per unit. I need $5 to cover tax, tool wear, etc. Call it $26 each. You supply the legs, etc.
If you want one or more, send me a PM. I'll wait a day or two to get a total then run them, probably over the weekend. I'm at Hoser's PD match every month (third Saturday), and I also get to the Springs on a regular basis. You're welcome to pick them up at my shop in Woodland Park as well.
I built 2 with the legs on opposite sides so I have a left facing one and a right facing one. You can cut them in half below the 6x6" square and add a simple hinge to make it fold over and easier to transport.
The CNC got freed up at the end of the day so I cut a pair out of some beat up scrap plywood. There was one little 1/2" error on a dimension (I was programming pretty fast), but it aggravated me so I fixed it already. Any others that run should be good.

I built ours with an extra port down low. A diamond just above the small triangle on the bottom. Just because I could...
I see it in the pics. Easy to add.Quote:
