Mix & Match
The Anatomical Frontal Handgun Threat Shooting Target presents a head-on aggressor actively aiming a handgun directly at the defender. A semi-transparent anatomical overlay reveals the brain, heart, lungs, liver, major vessels, and abdominal organs aligned beneath a realistic frontal posture. The arms, hands, and handgun partially obscure the upper torso, introducing realistic visual interference that forces disciplined anatomical confirmation rather than reflexive center-mass aiming.
This target reflects one of the most common real-world defensive threat presentations: a frontal handgun assault at close to intermediate distance. The design requires shooters to reconcile what they see externally with the internal anatomy that... ...
The Anatomical Frontal Handgun Threat Shooting Target presents a head-on aggressor actively aiming a handgun directly at the defender. A semi-transparent anatomical overlay reveals the brain, heart, lungs, liver, major vessels, and abdominal organs aligned beneath a realistic frontal posture. The arms, hands, and handgun partially obscure the upper torso, introducing realistic visual interference that forces disciplined anatomical confirmation rather than reflexive center-mass aiming.
This target reflects one of the most common real-world defensive threat presentations: a frontal handgun assault at close to intermediate distance. The design requires shooters to reconcile what they see externally with the internal anatomy that actually determines physiological incapacitation.
Frontal handgun threats compress time and elevate stress, often causing shooters to default to habit-based aiming. This target is designed to break that pattern by making anatomy visible and unavoidable.
The semi-transparent overlay trains shooters to:
By repeatedly engaging this target, shooters build anatomical literacy and accountability under realistic pressure, reinforcing why precise placement matters when milliseconds count.
Most anatomical targets are static diagrams. Most silhouette targets ignore anatomy entirely. This target merges both into a realistic, confrontational posture.
The aggressor’s extended arms and handgun block traditional aiming references, forcing shooters to evaluate what is actually exposed and what lies beneath. The transparent anatomy immediately exposes poor assumptions and reinforces correct visual discipline.
This design bridges the gap between classroom anatomy and real-world defensive application, making every shot a learning event rather than a score exercise.
This target is appropriate for intermediate and advanced shooters, as well as instructor-led training environments.
Recommended applications include:
It pairs well with side-profile and vehicle-based anatomical targets to build a complete understanding of how anatomy changes with angle, posture, and obstruction.
If you want more reps on the same type of scenario, pair this target with Anatomical Side-Profile Rifle Threat Shooting Target, Anatomical Rifle Threat Vital Zone Shooting Target, and Anatomical Head-Out Vehicle Window Engagement Shooting Target.
