People in Utah can work to correct this. It is part of the strategy to delegitimize armed citizens and self defense.

I bet the Police and Obama’s Civilian Army are using people shaped targets

I’ve never known anyone fire their weapon in defense against a round target with numbers and rings.

I bet the Chicoms and the Norks are using humans as targets.

Oh for God’s sakes...they’re not human, they’re LIBERALS!

I used to shoot at a range that allowed silhouettes on its indoor handgun line but not on its outdoor rifle line. I asked why and they replied, “When you shoot at a silhouette with a handgun you’re practicing self-defense, but when you shoot at a silhouette with a rifle you’re practicing to be a sniper.”
An interesting take, I never worried about it a lot because I preferred bull-eyes anyway.

The Constitution of the State of Michigan of 1963 Article 1, Section 6 reads:
Every person has a right to keep and bear arms for the defense of himself and the state.

I'm content to use any available, suitable target at the range.
Just take whatever, wrap an old dish towel around the top, simulating a turban, and go for it!
It doesn't hurt marksmanship to call it endearing names, either...like "Mookie," "Blind Sheikh," etc.
To: marktwain
Stupid idea, but there’s a simple workaround: shoot instead at targets of Bigfoot.

If human silhouettes are not allowed how is one suppose to practice 2 to the body, 1 to the head?

When you shoot at a silhouette with a handgun youre practicing self-defense, but when you shoot at a silhouette with a rifle youre practicing to be a sniper.You should have said and the problem with that is what?

Ive never known anyone fire their weapon in defense against a round target with numbers and rings. If you can't practice on human silhouettes, then they should allow automatic weapons so that if you are attacked you WILL hit the perp!

I raise ducks and geese. I name the ones I intend to butcher after democrats. It makes it easier for me when it comes time to cut their heads off and gut them.
We plan to have Pelosi on Thanksgiving and Reid on Christmas.

But my targets aren't human silhouettes, they are chimpanzee silhouettes.

Simple solution: “These aren’t human-shaped targets. They are zombie-shaped targets.”

My now son-in-law was brought by the house to meet me. My daughter had asked that before I met him, I go downstairs and clean a shotgun and something.
Outside the door, I heard her and him ‘discussing’ going in to meet me. Finally, she got exasperated and said, “Mark, just go do it!”
He came in and I shook his hand, he was obviously nervous and he started asking me about what he was seeing in my gun bench workroom....”Do you do a lot of Hunting?” I said, “Nope, I didn’t buy these guns to kill no animals.”
10 years later, I couldn’t have asked for a better man for my little girl. They gave me and the wifey three of the most beautiful grand daughters one could imaging.
I recently let him go through my cache and tag what he’d like to inherit.....[he’s got the hots for my Beretta CX-4 Storm Carbine, although I don’t think much of it]
