Description

Our 10-gauge steel backstop makes your AGE Quiet Pellet trap much more useful.

With the backstop inserted behind the duct seal, you can shoot at the trap with more powerful airguns -- up to 20-ft-lbs. Just make sure the trap is at least 10 meters from the muzzle of your gun.

Do not exceed the recommended muzzle energy or reduce the shooting distance!

This item includes only the steel backstop -- not the trap, duct seal or paper targets.

 

  • Air Venturi 10-gauge steel backstop
  • 9.75" x 10.75"
  • Use with the Air Venturi AGE Quiet Pellet Trap that does not come with a steel backstop or use as a replacement if your trap's steel backstop has been compromised
  • Insert behind the duct seal in your AGE Quiet Pellet Trap
  • For guns up to 20 ft-lbs. muzzle energy
  • Place trap with inserted backstop at least 10 meters from muzzle


Recommendations:

 

 

  • Regularly inspect your trap for signs of wood splinters and weakening of the rear wood panel
  • Regularly inspect the steel backstop for signs of penetration and/or weakening
  • NEVER shoot at your pellet trap with guns exceeding 20 ft-lbs.
  • NEVER place the trap closer than 10 meters from the gun's muzzle
  • Make sure your trap is backed up by something that safely stops any ammo that penetrates or misses the trap
  • Regularly remove pellets and BBs from the duct seal, as they'll eventually start ricocheting off the ones embedded in the trap
  • Do NOT shoot at the steel backstop without the duct seal in front of it!

Works as intended. Reliably stops pellets that penetrate the layer of duct seal. It's rated at 20 fpe which is very, very conservative: I shot the trap with all I have up to 38gr .25 cal slugs at 65 fpe at 10 yards and it handles it like a champ. When you start stacking your shots, projectiles that penetrate the duct seal just flatten against the plate without leaving a dent. The putty captures the fragments, nothing comes back at you and the trap is still in one piece. Obviously I don't recommend that you do it too often: when you hear that your pellets start smacking the metal, its time to stop and repack the putty, but rest assured this plate will save your trap and your walls.

A bit undersized for the trap. When centered in the wooden frame, leaves 1/4" gaps on each side. Not a big deal, just don't shoot it close to the edges with 65fpe guns.

Should come stock with the trap.

10 gauge steel is almost 1/8" thick so it makes a substantial backstop for your putty filled backstop. A smaller and thinner piece of steel cost more at our Lows and Home Depot.

Nothing

The old Air Venturi Quiet Trap stood a little higher and the standard two blocks of duct seal was simply insufficient to fill centerline and top edge gaps. Pellets just ended up piercing the backside wood. While the smaller new trap is easier to fill the gaps by kneading the duct seal, the steel backstop is just plain good insurance against pellets breaking the rear wood. The backstop fits perfectly and doesn't add significant weight. Works as advertised.

PA should just sell all the traps with the backstop. Stop selling the version without the backstop steel. If you do a search on the website it's easy to find the trap without the backstop and many shooters don't know the backstop is available. I didn't, and had to place an additional order after I found it as an accessory.
