VCA means 'violent criminal actor.
Oleg Volk’s Realistic Practice Target
August 29, 2011Printer Friendly | Email |
(GunReports.com) — Practice your Zombie-stopping skills with this new target, courtesy of firearms photographer Oleg Volk. From his site:
"This target is designed to represent a realistic violent criminal actor. Shaded areas represent armor that is proof either against pistol and shotgun (both helmet and vest) or against rifle only (just the vest). VCA means 'violent criminal actor.' The point of including the letters is to break the ingrained fear of official-looking outfits or criminals impersonating their members (as was the case with [Norway shooter] Brevik wearing a police vest). The target should be scaled to print life-size."

Am I wrong in thinking this is kind of weird? Who is going to shoot at a 'VCA' target with vest and helmet shaded out? The only thing left to shoot for is the face! Of course, if you could always depend on hitting that, it might be a good idea! And the vest area might be good for slug-gun practice.... I think too, that the helmet should be colored blue, right?
