• (a) two prong arms, each having a proximal and a distal end, each distal end having a hook for engaging a target;
• (b) a connecting shaft having an upper end and a lower end, the upper end removably connectable to a target transport system, and the lower end removably connected to the proximal ends of the prong arms;
• and
• (c) each prong arm constructed of detachable segments to facilitate removal and replacement of a segment damaged by a bullet.

A target carrier for a shooting range, comprising:

• (a) a T-fitting that includes
• (1) a horizontal nut having horizontally opposing threaded ends, and

• (b) a tubular connecting shaft having an upper end and a lower end, the upper end being removably connectable to a target transport system, and the lower end sleevedly engaged within the tubular sleeve and connected thereto by a pin located in aligned holes in the tubular sleeve and connecting shaft;
• and
• (c) two prong arms, each prong arm including
• (1) a generally L-shaped upper arm having a horizontal leg and a vertical leg depending from the horizontal leg,
• (2) a vertical nut having vertically opposing threaded ends, and
• (3) a lower arm having an upper end and a lower end, the upper end being adjacent the lower end of the vertical leg, and the lower end having an integrally-formed hook for receiving a target;
• wherein the horizontal legs are threadedly attached to opposite ends of the horizontal nut and the adjacent upper ends of the lower arms and lower ends of the vertical legs are threadedly connected together by the vertical nuts located therebetween.
