Firebird USA Targets

About Firebird USA

Firebird USA revolutionized the shooting sports industry by creating the world's first ready-to-use reactive targets that provide instant hit recognition.

Originally launched in 2010 in the United Kingdom, the company established US operations under the leadership of founder and director Dan Meeker.

The company evolved from developing pyrotechnic signaling devices into creating innovative exploding targets that eliminate the need for binary mixing.

Firebird targets have been declared "HOTTEST PRODUCT" at SHOT Show multiple times and earned the European CE Mark for manufacturing excellence.

Today, Firebird USA continues to lead the reactive target market with biodegradable technology and federal safety approvals that make their products the only legal targets of their kind in the world.
