40' Groundhog Rear Entry Overseas Shipping Configuration
The 40' Groundhog Rear Entry is a premium upgrade built exclusively for the 40' Groundhog. It moves the access point to the rear of the container, keeping every component fully enclosed within the ISO container frame. No exterior hardware. No parts extending beyond the walls. No oversize freight requirements.
The result is a shooting range that ships overseas at standard container freight rates, clears ports without complications, and arrives ready to operate. Call our team at Mobile Range Technologies or contact us online today to add this configuration to your build.

How the Rear Entry Configuration Works
Moving the access point to the rear of the container keeps every component inside the container frame with no exterior penetrations or protrusions. The unit meets standard ISO ocean freight dimensions without modification, which removes the complications that make international shipping expensive and unpredictable.
Containers with exterior hardware get flagged at customs, trigger oversize handling fees, and take damage during ocean transit from rough cargo handling, salt air, and weather exposure. The Rear Entry configuration avoids all of that. Because nothing extends beyond the container walls, this upgrade:
- Significantly reduces overseas shipping complexity and cost
- Simplifies international transport and port handling
- Keeps the range fully enclosed and protected during transit
- Supports dock-based operation or direct overseas deployment
