Anyone can be a threat! Anyone!!! if you don't train for looking for the threat on your life you could loose it fast!

Despite what I think should be purple statement, I agree with it.

There is nothing wrong with giving officers the tools they need to ensure they survive.

Is a pregnant shooter likely? No, but then again we have a real drug problem in this country and crack and meth-babies come from somewhere...

Is the old shooter likely? No, but we have Vets who can relive situations.

Is the mom and kid likely? No, but what if it was kidnapper and the cop stumbled across the situation?

Is the kid likely? No, but psychotic breaks are happening younger and younger.

Would I hope officers train on these all the time? No, as complete desensitization would be bad, but to train to get over the initial horror? Sure.

I didnt know pregnant people and older people were incapable of shooting a gun? Why wouldnt you want Officers to train for many different situations?

I've trained on targets like this before. They've been around forever. Heck, they have scenarios like this on simulators. It's designed to present moral dilemma and make sure your shots are well placed. It's some of the best training you can get.

And for the record I haven't become some desensitized psychotic maniac looking to shoot pregnant and older people, just from practicing on a simulator.

Why do you think it would be a joke? Do deadly threats only come in one or two colors and age groups?

 

[miguel]

I suppose, not being a veteran or enforcement officer, I am used to being at ranges where targets resembling actual people, not zombies or hand-drawn thugs, are prohibited.

Guess it is just culture shock.

It's a tough fact in the world we reside in. You gotta be ready for most anything. Fortunately these situations are far and few between.

If you can on your range, I do recommend you practice on hostage style targets. Even if they are just silhouettes, it is still effective. They really force you to analyze scene and go for well placed shots.

Op. Do you have a problem with their dog targets as well? FYI LETargets also makes overlays that can make any target a friend or a foe target to enhance scenario based training.

Like someone suggested in an earlier thread regarding photorealistic targets, I now only shoot targets that have my own image on them.

I have targets that are photos of me dressed up like an old lady, like an old man, like a little boy, like a pregnant woman and like a school girl.

I like the analysis idea of the targets. The "No more hesitation" aspect of the advertising to LEO is a bit unnerving though.

Thats a good point of veiw! You just don't know what happened 15 minutes before you got to the scene.

I would find a new range!

Well, I would prefer they use a photo of the dog currently living at my house, but I don't have an issue with dog pictures...

Maybe I am just preferring to think I'll never have to shoot at a pregnant lady or kid. I'm a softie that way.

 

[Sgtusmc]

They forgot these

Interesting picture. What do you all see here? (Besides Billy-Bob's ex.)

I see a little kid wishing he had a real gun.

Sorry,they're backordered like everything else. I do have some of my special valetine's day run left over. They're from a custom shoot I did for some people that wanted targets of me dressed up as a bear. I went with the wrong kind of bear and the customer refused to take delivery, got pretty snotty actually.

I'm going to stop selling these targets anyway. I need to get back to the basics of why I started making them in the first place.... doppelgangers and future me's.
