Framed Print of Meeting of the Belgian National Rifle Association at Brussels: the targets, 1865. Creator: Unknown
Meeting of the Belgian National Rifle Association at Brussels: the targets, 1865. Annual meeting...to which English volunteers were also specially invited...No wrong targets can be made by the firers, for boards are so placed on each side of the line of sight from the windows that only one target can be seen...The range is 225 metres or 246 yards...The target-frames work on an axis, two to each frame, which is balanced by a heavy weight. On the target being struck a small disc points out the spot, a string is pulled which raises a number showing the value of the shot, and the balance being turned the target with the hole in it disappears and a second rises in its place. While the first target is thus turned down the marker pastes a piece of paper over the hole made by the shot, and it is then ready to take the place of the other when it is struck. The shooting goes on very rapidly'. From Illustrated London News, 1865. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
