Armed Male Orange Hoodie Handgun With Light Aiming Forward E-Backer Target

An armed threat with a weapon light switched on and pointed at the trainee. It trains shooting past a light, a common low-light problem on building searches and domestic calls.

What the Trainee Has to Work Out

The lit weapon light is the brightest thing on the target and it sits directly in front of his chest. The eye goes to the light. The shooter has to shoot the man behind it.

Training Purpose

It trains shooting past a light that is pointed at you, a common low-light problem, and placing rounds on a chest that is partly hidden by the weapon. It belongs in any shoot / no-shoot course of fire as a clear armed threat.

Skills Reinforced

  • Placing shots on a subject behind a weapon light
  • Keeping the aiming point off the brightest object
  • Chest-to-head transitions
  • Speed, with every round accounted for
  • Threat identification on a realistic human figure

Kill Zones: 4-Inch Head Circle and 10-Inch Cardiac Box

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.

  • Head circle. A 4-inch circle placed through the eyes, centered on the bridge of the nose, with the upper lip at its bottom edge. It contains 3-inch, 2-inch and 1-inch rings. Use the 1-inch ring as the X-ring for ties and for confirming zero.
  • Cardiac box. A 10-inch square over the heart and the large vessels above it. The top edge runs across the base of the neck and the box extends down the upper chest. Concentric 8-inch, 6-inch and 4-inch squares are printed inside it, with the 4-inch square on the heart itself.

  • Hard to see on purpose. Every line is a light hairline. It is readable at arm's length for scoring and invisible from shooting distance, which keeps the shooter aiming at anatomy.

The light and pistol sit at the top center of the cardiac box. The head circle is fully clear above them. Score it the way your course of fire requires. Hits inside the outer lines count, and the inner squares and rings let you tighten the standard as shooters improve. 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.

Cut to Fit the E-Type Backer

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.

Instructor Notes

Run it in low light with the shooter's own light. The printed beam and the real one together make the chest hard to find. It works on static stands, turning stands and pop-up lifters that take an E-type backer.

Who This Target Is For

Law enforcement firearms instructors, military police and range cadre who run courses of fire on E-type backers, academy staff building judgment into qualification, and private instructors who want realistic human figures on a silhouette stand.
