A target stand is disclosed and described. The target stand can include a first side member and a second side member. Each side member can have a base portion, and an upright portion extending from the base portion. The upright portion can have a lower engagement feature and an upper engagement feature. The target support can also include a lower transverse member and an upper transverse member. Each transverse member can have a main body portion with a target support portion for interfacing with a target support, and complimentary engagement features extending from opposite ends of the main body portion. The complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member can be securable to the lower engagement features of the first and second side members to secure the lower transverse member to the first and second side members. The complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member can be securable to the upper engagement features of the first and second side members to secure the upper transverse member to the first and second side members. A distance between the complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member can be different than a distance between the complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member such that the lower and upper transverse members bind with the first and second side members and cause the first and second side members to be disposed at an angle relative to one another when assembled.

1. A target stand, comprising: a first side member and a second side member, each side member having a base portion, and an upright portion extending from the base portion and having a lower engagement feature and an upper engagement feature; anda lower transverse member and an upper transverse member, each transverse member having a main body portion with a target support portion that includes a vertically oriented target support opening for interfacing with a target support, and complimentary engagement features extending from opposite ends of the main body portion,wherein the complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member are securable to the lower engagement features of the first and second side members to secure the lower transverse member to the first and second side members, and the complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member are securable to the upper engagement features of the first and second side members to secure the upper transverse member to the first and second side members,wherein a distance between the complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member is different than a distance between the complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member such that the lower and upper transverse members bind with the first and second side members and cause the first and second side members to be disposed at an angle relative to one another when assembled, andwherein each side member comprises two individual components coupleable by the lower and upper transverse members when assembled, each component having an extension arm to provide stability for the target stand. 2. The target stand of claim 1, wherein each complimentary engagement feature is a tab which comprises a head portion, and a neck portion separating the head portion from a shoulder of the main body portion, a width of the head portion being greater than a width of the neck portion. 3. The target stand of claim 2, wherein a distance between the head portion and the shoulder is configured to facilitate binding of the lower and upper transverse members with the first and second side members. 4. The target stand of claim 2, wherein each engagement feature is an opening which comprises a T-shaped configuration having a cross portion and a post portion, the post portion being located below the cross portion, and wherein the cross portion is configured to receive the head portion of the engagement tab therethrough and the post portion is configured to receive the neck portion of the engagement tab to facilitate binding of the lower and upper transverse members with the first and second side members. 5. The target stand of claim 1, wherein each of the engagement features comprises a two part opening having a first portion and a second portion, the second portion having a width less than a width of the first portion. 6. The target stand of claim 5, wherein each complimentary engagement feature is a tab having an outside width that is less than the width of the first portion of the two part opening and greater than the width of the second portion of the two part opening. 7. The target stand of claim 1, wherein the distance between the complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member is less than the distance between the complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member. 8. The target stand of claim 1, wherein the target support openings are configured to be vertically aligned with one another when assembled to maintain the target support in a vertical orientation. 9. The target stand of claim 1, wherein the target support opening comprises a plurality of target support openings, each target support opening configured to interface with a different target support. 10. The target stand of claim 1, wherein the base portion comprises an extension arm to provide stability for the target stand. 11. The target stand of claim 1, wherein the base portion comprises a foot to interface with a support surface such that the base portion is raised above the support surface. 12. The target stand of claim 1, wherein a frontal area of the first and second side members and the lower and upper transverse members is minimized to reduce damage to the target stand and reduce the likelihood of a projectile ricochet off the target stand. 13. The target stand of claim 1, wherein the first and second side members and the lower and upper transverse members are each substantially planar to allow planar stacking of the members upon disassembly. 14. The target stand of claim 13, wherein the first and second side members and the lower and upper transverse members are formed of metal plates having a thickness from 1/16″ to ¼″. 15. The target stand of claim 1, further comprising a carrying case configured to contain the first and second side members and the lower and upper transverse members and facilitate transport by a user. 16. A target stand system, comprising: a target;a target support coupled to the target and configured to position the target; anda target stand engaged with the target support, the target stand including a first side member and a second side member, each side member having a base portion, and an upright portion extending from the base portion and having a lower engagement feature and an upper engagement feature, anda lower transverse member and an upper transverse member, each transverse member having a main body portion with a target support portion for interfacing with the target support, and complimentary engagement features extending from opposite ends of the main body portion,wherein the complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member are securable to the lower engagement features of the first and second side members to secure the lower transverse member to the first and second side members, and the complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member are securable to the upper engagement features of the first and second side members to secure the upper transverse member to the first and second side members, andwherein a distance between the complimentary engagement features of the upper transverse member is different than a distance between the complimentary engagement features of the lower transverse member such that the lower and upper transverse members bind with the first and second side members and cause the first and second side members to be disposed at an angle relative to one another when assembled. 17. The system of claim 16, further comprising a second target support and a second target stand engaged with the second target support, wherein the target is coupled to the second target support such that the first target stand and the second target stand are operable together to support the target. 18.
