Hands together at the waist is the most common false cue in use-of-force training, and this target is built around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the Trainee Has to Work Out\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTraining Purpose\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt 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.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe figure is printed life-size.
