When milliseconds matter, the D-TaPS™ target system challenges shooters to think, identify, and act under real pressure. Engineered for rapid 180-degree rotations in just two-tenths of a second, D-TaPS delivers unpredictable threat/no-threat presentations that force shooters to rely on judgment—not anticipation. Each unit operates independently, giving instructors complete control to design complex, multi-target environments that sharpen reaction time and visual processing.
Whether used in law enforcement, military, or tactical training, D-TaPS brings unmatched realism to every range. Its quick transitions mimic the unpredictability of real-world situations. This helps reduce decision-making errors and builds confidence in high-stress environments. Durable and adaptable, D-TaPS integrates smoothly with Action Target’s range control software. This system enables trainers to design scenarios that distinguish instinct from hesitation. It prepares shooters for critical moments that matter most.
From your first question to your final shot, Action Target is your trusted partner—guiding you every step of the way.
Target turns 180 degrees for decision making and shoot/no shoot scenario training.
Can be mounted in a variety of ways to fit into any range configuration.
Targets turn in a blazing two-tenths of a second, faster than the brain can process.
Now available with a heated option that functions in sub-zero temperatures.
Upright configuration available with optional ballistic shield that protects components.
Integrates with our range control software for advanced features and functionality.
D-TaPS challenges officers to recognize, process, and engage threats under time constraints that mimic real encounters. With a 180° rotation in just 0.2 seconds, the system eliminates anticipation and forces authentic judgment-based decisions. Each target can be controlled independently or synchronized with others, allowing instructors to build realistic multi-threat scenarios that sharpen reaction time and visual processing.
