Ar-mor 8" Ar500 Steel Gong - 3/8" Thick Steel Orange Round

The Ar-mor 8" AR500 Steel Gong is a precision-engineered reactive target designed for law enforcement, military, and civilian marksmanship training. This 8-inch round steel gong delivers audible and visual feedback on every shot, making it an essential training tool for range work, qualification courses, and tactical skill development. Built from AR500 steel—a hardened alloy specifically formulated to withstand high-velocity impacts—this target eliminates the guesswork of paper targets while promoting instant shot verification and confidence building in dynamic shooting scenarios.

Constructed from 3/8-inch-thick AR500 steel, the gong is engineered to absorb and deflect rounds safely without cratering, spalling, or material degradation—critical for extended range sessions and high-volume training. The pre-painted orange finish provides excellent visibility downrange and resists weathering for outdoor use. Square carriage bolt holes simplify mounting to standard range frames, allowing rapid setup and repositioning without specialized tools or equipment. The 5.55-pound weight ensures stable performance when properly secured, and the compact 8-inch diameter makes it ideal for precision rifle and pistol training at varied distances.

Tactical professionals, competitive shooters, and range operators benefit most from this gong's durability and instant feedback loop. Whether deployed at law enforcement academies, military training facilities, or private ranges, the Ar-mor 8" AR500 Steel Gong performs reliably across rifle calibers (5.56mm, 7.62mm, .308 Winchester) and standard pistol rounds (.45 ACP, 9mm, .40 S&W). Compatible with most portable range frames and steel target stands via standard carriage bolts, this gong requires minimal maintenance and delivers years of dependable service in high-round-count environments.
