I never got the idea that the IPSC targets with 'heads' were OK but pictures were not. Our little group also liked 'zombie' targets as well.

Shot a ton of the Zombie targets too. The ones with 3 zombies and one hostage, those were shot at 150 yds too. Just glad I haven't been required to shoot at a live person since Vietnam and hope I never have to again. Whatta Hobby!

Not getting the difference between an IDPA/IPSC/USPSA cardboard cutout, and a real picture of a human being, tells me everything I need to know about someone.

No firing range anywhere in my area now, or when I lived in Arizona, allows actual pictures. Drawings, of things which aren’t real (zombies, monsters) and body outlines are one thing, but actual pictures aren’t allowed. I doubt they are at any public ranges most attend.

Would never have thought PC would enter the shooting hobbies. Nice to have a private range where I can choose targets without worrying about what someone else might think or interpret any negative intentions. Sad day in America. Back in my Boy Scout days in the 1950s our team's printed targets were of Hitler and Tojo. My kids had Sadam and Bin Laden targets before they both entered the military.

I can remember a period of time when drawings of persons were used in training. I'll see if I can find some old photos.

PS our public range has no restrictions on targets except no glass and no appliances. Everything has to be removed after firing.

Was just at a public indoor range here in CT this morning, where there were a couple of PDs training and they are still using drawings of bad guys. I ask about photos and was told they cost more or they would be using them now. They also do video training with live people acting as the bad guys. Range operator said there are no restrictions here for photos and liked my hostage target.

I understand why IPSC went politically correct on their targets and cheaper to produce as well. Military did the same to simplify things for the avg soldier.
