Are they @3' tall or what? It doesn't really say.

I bought one from Cheaper Than Dirt a few years ago. I still need to set up Ivan, but he scares the crap out of my dogs.

WTF is up with the Otis Cleaning Kit on that site??? They have one version for military only and another for the rest of us. WTF???

I had a good experience ordering a plastic training weapon from them. What kind of stand is required to keep the Ivan targets from falling over?

I wonder if the Russian version is called " Joe "?

You're bringing back many qualification memories!

i have 3-4 out in my shed.

They are about 3 1/2 feet high and curved. they were desined to be bolted to pop up remote target systems for the army.

they do not stand well on it's own and will need a base of some sort if you plan to shoot them. they will take a LOT of rounds.

.mil version has black colored cables, optics cleaning, and a couple other niceties from various "civilian" sets.

The .mil deluxe or the buttstock are all I buy (aside from .17 cables and eyeloops)

--ETA: the .mil version comes with CLP in Break Free black container, the civie version has "OTIS Bore Cleaner" in white container

Brings back memories as does the other one below it

As I recall, our "Ivan" targets had red stars painted on the helmet portion.

That reminds me... I need to see what Gunsite would charge for 1000 Option targets. They are .45 cents a piece, but I imagine they'd let them go cheaper if I bought a lot.
