An armed female threat wearing a shirt with large, readable text. Text on a subject pulls the eye, and this target measures how much time a trainee loses reading before reacting to the pistol.
The words on her shirt are large and readable from the line. Text pulls the eye and invites the shooter to read before acting. The pistol above it is already on target.
It trains the shooter to process the threat before the distraction. Large text on a target is one of the most reliable ways to add a few tenths of a second to a decision. Hung among no-shoot and hostage targets, it is a threat the shooter has to recognize and stop.
Two kill zones are printed on this target. Both are placed on this figure's own anatomy, not at fixed spots on the paper, so they sit where the organs are.

The lettering sits across the lower half of the cardiac box. Hits on the words are in the box; hits below them are not. The nested squares and rings give you several standards on one target: the outer lines for a pass, the inner ones for instructors who want more. The Range Manual explains how T-box, cardiac box and A/C scoring zones compare, and when to shift from the cardiac box to the head.
Most printed targets are rectangles that have to be folded or cut to fit a silhouette backer. This one is already cut to the E-type shape: 19" x 38", made to mount on the standard 19.5" x 40" E-type backer used on military and law enforcement ranges. The person on it is printed to fill that outline, so what the shooter sees downrange is a human figure and not a sheet of paper.
The figure is printed life-size. Heads, shoulders and hands are the size they are on a real person at that distance, so sight pictures and hold-offs carry over.
Ask shooters afterward what the shirt said. The ones who can quote it usually have the slowest first shot. Typical distances are 3 to 25 yards with pistol and out to 50 with a carbine.
Range masters, academy instructors and unit trainers who use E-type backers, and civilian instructors with silhouette stands who want armed figures that look like people an officer would meet.
A course of fire needs armed threats, no-shoots and hostage problems side by side. These five come from across the E-backer line:
