Just bought a cheapo clay thrower from walmart for like $24 on

Bought a similar model on Amazon. Yeah, you gotta give it some gusto. Careful though, I have a nasty scar on my forearm from a trap thrower at a range. Mounted or not, they're dangerous.

There's a reason it was a $24 Wal-Mart special.
Might as well take the risk. After all, it's not much of a loss.

>>34801264
yeah I'm not expecting much but I don't really want to spend $300 either

I've got damn near the same thrower, also from wally world. Been using it for years, hasn't died yet. Right off the bat I cut off the legs and instead bolted it onto an old tire rim with some concrete poured on it for weight. Much easier to use since you can plop the whole rig on a table or tree stump instead of having to reach clear down to the ground every time you load it. The nylon pull cord did give out eventually, replaced it with some 1/8 wire rope i had laying around instead.

load it with midget spinners

where do you think I can get an old tire on the super cheap

You might not be smart enough for gun ownership, anon :(

This but then aim it at people as a form of weaponized autism

Just go to the local service station and ask if they have any junk rims. They'll probably sell you any rusted ones for a few bucks. Otherwise, local junkyard.

pretty much any SUV will have a spare on the back which is easy to take off and just steal

>>34801231
i have the same thrower. iirc you can dismantle the front legs and reattach them pointing inward. you can then attach it directly to a tire. it should've came with instructions to do so. i haven't done it in years, but i just pulled the spare off my truck and we'd sling them out of my truck bed. don't trust the dual throw too much though. every time i'd load up two, one would break right out of the gate.

>>34801231
I had one just like that, yeah the springs pretty strong to cock it.
yeah you gotta be fucking careful operating it you could get hurt.

Best advice, mount that fucker down on a 4ft x 4ft piece of 1" thick plywood or something. then you can stand on the wood base while loading/operating it, makes it easier

I got one of those too, but its complete shit. It doesnt throw the clays very far, even though the tension is really strong. I ended up getting the $4 hand thrower that works better imo.

>>34801231
>is there a trick to it

yes use some smarts and strengthen it

get some steel flat bars and splint them in various places

end up spending $100 and it should work ok

>>34802687
no doubt that hand thrower is great, but I don't have anyone to go with me generally since I try to go on weekday mornings and I don't have any friends

>>34802529
I mounted mine on an 8 ft length of 2x8, then park the rear wheels of the truck on it.
use the tailgate as a bench.
hook the trigger string to my belt.
enjoy the day skeet shooting by myself because I have no friends

>>34803316
