A bullet trap is disclosed which is formed without intervening sidewalls to enable cross-shooting and the like with reduced risk or ricochet or damage to the bullet trap. Furthermore, the bullet trap can be configured in a variety of ways to eliminate the need for facing plates while providing a removable attachment mechanism, to enable repair on the trap, to reduce bullet adhesion to the trap and to provide improved containment of lead and improved access to the trap.

The bullet trap of claim 3, wherein the one or more channeling plates comprises an upper channeling plate and a lower channeling plate. 5. The bullet trap of claim 4, wherein the channeling plates direct bullets to the inlet. 6. The bullet trap of claim 4, wherein at least one of the channeling plates comprises a plurality of generally planar impact zones. 7. The bullet trap of claim 3, further comprising a channel section corresponding to the first bullet containment chamber section and a channel section corresponding to the second bullet containment chamber section, and wherein the channeling sections are releasably attached together to form a continuous channel. 8. The bullet trap of claim 1, wherein one or more plates of each of the bullet containment chamber sections are generally arcuate. 9. The bullet trap of claim 1, wherein the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section are attached so as to form a bullet containment chamber having an interior which is uninterrupted between the bullet containment chamber sections by sidewalls. 10. The bullet trap of claim 1, further comprising a third bullet containment chamber section having an inlet for receiving bullets into the third bullet containment chamber section, the bullet containment chamber section comprising one or more plates for deflecting and containing a bullet and any bullet fragments as the bullet decelerates, wherein the third bullet containment chamber section is attached to the second bullet containment chamber section so as to form a single uninterrupted inlet along the bullet containment chamber formed by the first, second, and third bullet containment chamber sections. 11. The bullet trap of claim 10, wherein the first, second, and third bullet containment chamber sections are attached so as to form a bullet containment chamber which is uninterrupted by interior sidewalls. 12. A bullet trap comprising: a first bullet containment chamber section having an inlet for receiving bullets into the first bullet containment chamber section, the bullet containment chamber section comprising one or more plates for deflecting and containing a bullet and any bullet fragments as the bullet decelerates; anda second bullet containment chamber section having an inlet for receiving bullets into the second bullet containment chamber section, the bullet containment chamber section comprising one or more plates for deflecting and containing a bullet and any bullet fragments as the bullet decelerates;a support comprising a support frame and a plurality of flanges for receiving the first bullet containment chamber section and second bullet containment chamber section, wherein the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section are releasably attached to the support;wherein the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section are attached to one another so as to form a single uninterrupted inlet extending along a bullet containment chamber formed by the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section; andfurther comprising a plurality of cams disposed upon the support frame for holding the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section to the support. 13. The bullet trap of claim 12, wherein the cams are configured for holding the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section against the plurality of flanges. 14. A bullet trap comprising: a containment chamber segment comprising: an inlet for allowing bullets to enter the containment chamber;at least one impact plate configured for reversing a direction of movement of bullets entering the containment chamber at 180 degrees and thereby decelerating bullets;an outlet for allowing decelerated bullets to exit the containment chamber; anda plurality of supports configured for supporting the at least one impact plate, each of the plurality of supports comprising at least one impact plate flange; and at least one clamp for holding the at least one impact plate against the at least one impact plate flange to thereby attach the at least one impact plate to the plurality of supportswherein at least one support of the plurality of supports further comprises a plurality of flanges for connecting a second containment chamber segment so that when the containment chamber segment is connected to the second containment chamber segment a single uninterrupted inlet extends along a bullet containment chamber formed by the containment chamber segment and the second containment chamber segment. 15. The bullet trap of claim 14, wherein the containment chamber consists of two generally arcuate impact plates. 16. The bullet trap of claim 14, wherein the containment chamber has a diameter and wherein the inlet is substantially smaller than the diameter of the containment chamber. 17. The bullet trap of claim 14, wherein the inlet is defined on an upper end and lower end by the at least one impact plate which forms the containment chamber. 18. A bullet trap comprising: a first bullet containment chamber section having an inlet for receiving bullets into the first bullet containment chamber section, the bullet containment chamber section comprising one or more plates for deflecting and decelerating a bullet, the plates being substantially in the containment chamber so as to receive the bullets that have passed through the inlet;a second bullet containment chamber section having an inlet for receiving bullets into the second bullet containment chamber section, the bullet containment chamber section comprising one or more plates for deflecting and decelerating a bullet, the plates being substantially in the containment chamber so as to receive the bullets that have passed through the inlet; anda plurality of cams, the cams attaching to the first or second containment chamber, and when engaged, the cams causing the first containment chamber and second containment chamber to attach to one another; andwherein the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section are attached to one another so as to form a single uninterrupted inlet extending along a bullet containment chamber formed by the first bullet containment chamber section and the second bullet containment chamber section. 19.
