Will this stand up without hammering it in to the ground or does it need to be in the ground to be stable?

Its much better if you hammer it into the ground. However, you can shoot a fair amount of rounds before it falls over if the ground is too hard. Also, the "stakes" are pretty round so if the ground is solid they wont go in easily.

This item will stand by itself, it does not need to be hammered to the ground.

It will stand up by itself, but the unit is very small. I suppose using it for long gun would be better. But for pistol it's too low.

No it needs to be anchored in the ground. It is to top heavy for that. The tent is beautiful set up.

It is meant to stand just like in the picture but I suppose if you laid it flat you could but it would not latch or be very stable. I love mine.

You do not need a stand to make it stay upright. I have been using this as a bedroom wall for almost 5 months :) Works great

It needs to be attached to the ground. So you can if you nail the corners down

It doesn't need to touch the ground. Mine is on my pontoon boat. Very sturdy and nice.

Yes its stable when full to set on ground, otherwise when empty its light weight & could blow over/away.

It's very stable - this is a very heavy, solid stand. I can see how you'd be concerned from the picture but I've never had a problem with it.

It's my Guess that it WILL stand up. It's very solid. Of course have another there to do a test weight load.

It's very unstable. It certainly will stand upright and stay that way if you don't do anything to it, but compared to a standard upright with a wider base it falls over very easily.

I guess it depends on wind conditions. If it is not windy, no need to secure it. If you are concerned about wind, you could place something that weighs a few pounds, like a small sandbag on the feet.It is really pretty sturdy. We have used ours several times with no need to secure it to the ground.

Very stable. Each of the bottom legs has an adjustable foot piece for leveling purposes. I have it on tile and I didn't need to drill it into the wall to keep it stable. The holes aren't very noticeable, they are small and are at the top part of the back vertical beams. I have tan walls and I hardly notice them.

No, we have it standing on our patio and it is very solid. You should just make sure the ground is level.

There is no need to attach to a wall. It stands very stable by itself. Goodluck!

It does not need to touch the ground. I comes with brackets for deck mounting.

John,It will stay upright. You can not push it all the way down so it lies flat. Hope this helps.

I believe you are asking if this unit stands without any other support? Correct? If so, yes, it is quite stable.
