Post by Neverpanic1 »

I've only used the standard B27 target, but are the B27e targets allowed as well ? Just curious..

All courses of fire will be scored on a standard B-27 target. The B-27 target must be 24 inches by 45 inches and may be one of four colors; black, blue, red, or green.

I ask, as I've seen many B27E's posted by students.
Thanx for that confirmation.

Is this in Texas, if so then they are using the wrong target. DPS states that we must use a B27 target which is 24x45. The B27E is 24x35 while close is still not considered the correct target...

A quick image search found a few instructors that APPEAR to be using the wrong target for LTC qualifications. Mostly B27E but one LH101.

It can't be determined for certain what they are actually using during the class without being in the class but the images, and supportive text, seem to indicate them using the aforementioned targets.
