Good PORTABLE Steel Target Stand?

Not really bolt related but...
I got these brackets for cheap off Amazon, it was like 25 bucks for 6 sets a few years back. Then it’s just some emt tubing; its a hole to slide emt through for the cross piece and then two prongs that slide down inside the legs. They can also be screwed to a 2x4 if you dont mind that getting splintered up eventually.
If you have a welder I made a little brackets, three angled legs out of 3/4" square tubing that I can slide 1/2" rebar sections into. They are angled the same way the above are pictured. Must be old enough that I dont have pic on this phone anymore. But 1/2" rebar is a bit heavier weight and so unless you are hanging a full ipsc its probably a bit overkill to lug around.
Edit: here’s a clip from the background of a more recent pic of what I’m trying to describe even if its not all pictured

MK Machining sells steel as well if you need it, and he’s a member here (don’t remember his name).

Depends on the target and how you have it configured, but a T post or two works good.

Another T-post option. I have these and have not had any problems with targets falling/dropping. I've shot my plates with a wide variety of calibers from 22 LR up to 300 RUM and they've held strong with everything that has been thrown at them.
Grab a few set, toss them in your bag, a few t-posts and a pounder from your hardware/farm supply store of choice and you can set up a range wherever you've got the space.
