An unarmed man with both hands together at his belt, holding a work rag. Hands together at the waist is the most common false cue in use-of-force training, and this target is built around it.
Both hands are together at the belt line, wrapped around something red, and he is not smiling. From distance, a dark shape in two hands at the waist is exactly what a shooter is trained to fear. It is a rag.
It trains the shooter to finish the look at the hands before pressing the trigger. Hands together at the waist is the single most common false cue. Hung among armed targets, it is the one the shooter has to leave alone.
Nothing is printed on this figure. There is no head circle and no cardiac box, because there is no correct place to shoot this person. Any hole in the target is a failed decision.
The rest of the line is scored by zone: a 4-inch head circle and 10-inch cardiac box on the armed figures, and a head circle on the gunman in the hostage targets. Among them, this target tests the decision that comes before any shot. The Range Manual covers how to build shoot / no-shoot decision drills and identifying armed and unarmed subjects.
An E-type backer is the plastic or cardboard silhouette, 19.5" wide and 40" tall, that pop-up lifters and static stands on military and police ranges are built around. This... ...

An E-type backer is the plastic or cardboard silhouette, 19.5" wide and 40" tall, that pop-up lifters and static stands on military and police ranges are built around. This target is cut to that same outline at 19" x 38", so the paper covers the face of the backer and the figure fills the shape from edge to edge. Hang it the way you hang any E-type facing.
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.
Hang it next to the backpack low-ready figure, whose pistol is in almost the same place. It works on static stands, turning stands and pop-up lifters that take an E-type backer.
Firearms instructors who need believable no-shoot figures for E-type backers: law enforcement and military police cadre, academy staff, and private trainers running decision drills.
A course of fire needs armed threats, no-shoots and hostage problems side by side. These five come from across the E-backer line:
