Farita

Farita is a type of clay pigeon that is used in clay pigeon shooting and other forms of shooting sports. It is a small, cylindrical target that is designed to mimic the flight of a bird, typically made from a mixture of clay and other substances.

The name "farita" is not universally recognized and may be used interchangeably with other terms, such as "clay pigeon" or "bismuth break" targets. In some regions, these targets are referred to as "farcitas."

Design and Construction of Farita

--------------------------------

Farita are typically made from a mixture of clay, bismuth oxide, and other materials, which are then molded into a cylindrical shape. The mixture is often coated with a thin layer of wax or other substance to prevent it from sticking to the shotgun upon impact.

Farita come in different sizes, shapes, and weights, depending on the manufacturer and the purpose for which they are intended. Some are designed for competitive shooting events, while others are used for recreational purposes.

Safety Precautions with Farita

-----------------------------

Handling and firing shotguns at farita targets requires adherence to strict safety precautions to prevent accidents and injuries. Shooters must wear protective eyewear and ear protection, and ensure that the shotgun is safely discharged downrange, away from individuals and obstacles.
